Re: Ulster v Dragons
Stuart was originally a Bangor Grammar boy who who went to Dungannan as a perspective 10.
Has bulked up and has been very sound with all the basics especially defence for the ravens, hasn't made that many line breaks and doesn't give the impression he will be a star, great lad and and reminds me of Ian Whitten at centre.
I hope he gets a good 25mins which will indicate we are well ahead.
On an unrelated note he was another NOC in the golf stakes, very long hitter playing of 2/3 when he headed to Dungannan to concentrate on the oval ball.
SUFTUM

Sad to say goodbye to the beard after 10weeks of growth but worth it to be back playing again #Cantwait

Gordan Darcy's beard was up at Newforge yesterday ... majestic it was ... but the kids were not allowed to look at it never mind touch it ... it was like the scene in Spinal Tap with Nigels Strat ....

The last time a coach made that decision just before his team played Ulster, they got whumped.

As said elsewhere this guy isn't really their head coach any more.

Few missing up front and light on the bench again concerns me not about losing but getting the bp.againstthehead wrote:Ulster XV and replacements to face Newport Gwent Dragons, RaboDirect PRO12, Ravenhill, Friday 28th February (kick off 19:05) (15-9): J Payne, T Bowe, D Cave, L Marshall, R Scholes, P Jackson, R Pienaar; (1-8): C Black, R Herring, R Lutton, J Muller (Captain), I Henderson, R Diack, S Doyle, R Wilson; Replacements (16-23): N Annett, T Court, A Macklin, L Stevenson, M McComish, P Marshall, S McCloskey, D McIlwaine.
Decent side on paper. Backline tasty if weather permits. Henderson adds much needed carrying. Bench poor though. Who is McCloskey? Any good?
Hopefully PJs lack of game time means he will be fresh rather than rusty but if his return should help our continuity.
