I didn't realise that both Murphy and McGrath are centrally contracted until 2021 until I read it on rugby pass. So we will have 4 players paid for by FIRFU?

So with Stockdale signing a new deal, the unknowns for next season are Addison, Andrew, Ludik, McGrath, Murphy, Reidy and Warwick.

Team for Saturday?
From the rolling glens of Antrim through the hills of Donegal we will stand and shout for Ulster as we win both scrum and maul from the lovely lakes of Fermanagh tae the shores of ould Lough Gall we will scream and shout for Ulster as we beat them one and all!

McGrath as another year, Ludik looks like he will retire, Andrew could do with looking for a new job, gazumped by McBurney and Stewart on the way. I suspect Reidy will stay and Warwick will head back to Eaton park and the family business. If I was Murphy i'd be off for a pay day!

I was under the impression McGrath contract is up at the end of this season also.

Any source he has another year? Fantastic if true.

Excellent - I think he was mistaken for a 'Dave' originally!

He’s scored 7 tries in 740 minutes of action and gained 451m.

Better to have him available than not I would have thought.

Louis sounds like he’d like to play on whilst his wife concentrates on the sausages.

100%. Options are options and options with those stats are handy.

I would agree that is looking unlikely.

Bloody good was Jared.
