Was mentioned by a mexican on ladyboyfans,
Noel Oelschig from SF has also been mentioned in the past.
Dogs have gone deaf and dumb on this one Snipe, that means deal signed and kept very secret or feck all in the pipeline, I hope it is the former.

Oil slick could be on the move I saw a rumour about him talking to Sarries not long ago. A goal kicking 9 with lots of experience could help shape young porter, and another saffa...

Anyway was a deal done so long ago that's the reason we couldn't afford Isaac when his Irish contract expired?

David Kearney is the boy we should be looking at, same sort of shape as Jones only two years younger and just as promising.
Taken from The FRU's match report on the Ravens V Leinster A
However the star of the first half was Craig Gilroy, playing at 11 (not 14) who had an outstanding first half up against the much vaunted David Kearney. With the wind driving kicks in his direction Gilroy fielded superbly and absolutely skinned Kearney on four occasions leaving him flat footed and grasping at thin air. On the few occasions that Kearney got the ball, Gilroy was there to knock him flat.

Gilroy should be with the Irish U20's, shocking bias being shown towards the Leinster guys

To be honest on tonights performance I doubt he should, the outside backs were very impressive and that was without Connacht outside back Tiernan O'Halloran. Gilroy's big challenge is to get into our academy.

Don't think he was one of those mentioned on here but the name has been floating around as well, hard grafter and a decent place kicker as well allegedly would fit the spot nicely.

He would be a good signing,very good kicker. Lets just hope ulster arent forced into a panic signing after missing out on the two SH they wanted.

Which were the 2 as there was rumoured to be Pienaar, Peel and Blair, personally I think Blair was a panic type signing, if he ever was looked at and not just journalistic thoughts.

From where i heard the all the transfer info,blair was never mentioned,it was only brought up on bbc sport so your prob right in saying that it was all media hype.perfect for blair who prob got a fortune from edinburgh with ulster apparently after him.

I heard Pienaar might of been coming because he was very friendly with Muller (who can barely speak english,full on Dutchie) but that seems to be a lost cause even though they were apparently throwing huge money at him.
