Is it sustainable in your opinion KOTH or are we just going through a freak couple of years? Do we now have the structures in place to produce talented academy players year on year for the foreseeable future?kingofthehill wrote:

Heard he was away to Edinburgh last year but obv didn’t happen.Big-al wrote:You guys seriously think Hall will leave?
If he gets over his injury problems I reckon he has a very bright future with Ulster. A really athletic flanker.
I hope he doesn't do a Chris Farrell.
POC helped keep him out of Edinburghs hands... I think he'll go as there are too many backrowers ahead of himkingofthehill wrote:Heard he was away to Edinburgh last year but obv didn’t happen.Big-al wrote:You guys seriously think Hall will leave?

You would have Dunleavy ahead of McCann?therealspratt wrote:I just don't see O'Donnell ever getting a fair shake from Ulster King, feel he should have tried either England or New Zealand when he lelf school. Seems things now rest on Doak maybe being alright.
That team of yours seems spot on but I'd sub in McCann again for Dunleavy, don't think he's been setting the world on fire.
Nah, vice versa, Dunleavy seems well down the pecking order unfortunately. Might have to wait to McMenamin for our first ever pro Ulster player from Donegal.kingofthehill wrote:You would have Dunleavy ahead of McCann?therealspratt wrote:I just don't see O'Donnell ever getting a fair shake from Ulster King, feel he should have tried either England or New Zealand when he lelf school.

Squad rotation as trying games, let's see who is in 6nations squadsColumbo wrote:Not to be a downer, but there were only 6 or so involved with the U-20s in the pre-Christmas games, which isn't great (plus McKee). In the second game I think there was one Ulster player in the 23.
Presumably the goal would be to consistently provide a quarter of age grade squads (or thereabouts - there will always be a skew in favour of Leinster, and against Connacht, due to overall player numbers)
I don't know if this one is quite the vintage batch, few more riches below in the u19s and u18s.Gerald the Mole wrote:Squad rotation as trying games, let's see who is in 6nations squadsColumbo wrote:Not to be a downer, but there were only 6 or so involved with the U-20s in the pre-Christmas games, which isn't great (plus McKee).
