Contract Situation

[ulstermanabroad]

Taking a look at everyone who is in the last year of contracts and given there have been no new NIQ signings announced, apart from whoever KOTH is referencing, is Carter likely to be the only NIQ in the squad next season? We've got a powerful number of back 3 players coming through, and Addison, Lyttle, Stockdale, Balacoune, Lowry, Sexton are all already signed up for a while and on top of that I thought Matthewson was signed in case Cooney went away with Ireland which for whatever reason seems not to be happening?

I'd take Shkin Ryan in a heart beat, regardless of his age

No but there are clues in posts which have went unnoticed.

Luke Jones? Racing, Australian & international caps. Plays lock and has played blindside in past. Can’t find a contract length though.

Might not be a player.

It’s not Ryan.

launish was right with 3 points.
Clues in this thread and transfer rumours.

Claassen or Dom Bird?

Claassen or Dom Bird?

You are throwing out random names. You need to look at the clues.

Tom Cusack?

Tom Cusack?

Only basing this off he is a brumbie, Australian 7s international who signed a contract that would see him stay at the Brumbies until the Olympics last year (but obviously that’s been pushed forward to this year) as he wanted to play Olympic 7s (he did in 2016) and he follows ulster rugby on Instagram too - complete guess tho!

One of them, if not both, are internationally capped back five players at Racing.

All ready ruled out Saffers and New Zealers. Think there is a clue in states/golden.

If not NZ/SA, Leone Nakarawa - ex-Racing, Fijian international, can play lock / blindside, seemingly is a Christian and most importantly he is out of contract in June. Maybe Mata was the wrong Scottish Fijian

He is also an Olympic Gold medalist.

Very good shout, would definitely suit our open play/offloading game.

Would think Glasgow would really want to keep him though after mass exodus.

John Andrew the latest to get new deal till 2023.

Has overtaken McBurney who appears to have totally stalled.

And well deserved too.
