No replacement for Coetzee. Shocking management.

[launish116]

No more signings in the back-row very disappointing to be fair!

Another season of being bullied and under performing.

Not sure it can be under performing when the squad isn't good enough to do better with weaknesses in key positions and a lack of ball carriers.

[Dave]

Apparently not signing anyone is good continuity.

[solidarity]

Looks like our graduates team could beat our incomers team, although we do only have a dozen or so incomers!

He's been in Ireland since 2017. When did the residency rules change?

I think there was a break in his residency, it hasn't been a continuous 3 years. Maybe some Magherafelt men can clarify?

Nobody from the N hemisphere would countenance think 'tache and Barnett combo.

So we're in for another season of building for a "next season" that never arrives.

Ulster are a dog chasing a car.

Car has gone but the dog is now chasing it's tail.

Not a No8 but Rhys O'Donnel is training with Ulster at the moment.
