PBG is the fulcrum of this team and a real box of tricks. He's outworked a lot of heavier No.8's this year with a quick brain, explosive power and magic feet.
Well I'm looking forwards to seeing him play on St Patrick's day! It's shaping up to be a good game.

Without full knowledge of others I would suggest that the Schools Cup Final is now the priciest schoolboy final of any sport in Europe...that ain't right...I paid €10 to watch Barcelona at home a few seasons back...

Of course! A pity it wasn't the real thing but I doubt we'll ever increase our 6 outright and one shared championship, it's so much more difficult now for the smaller schools. How are Banbridge doing? I couldn't find them on the winners list :lol: :lol:

C'mon Ulsterrrrrrrrr! :red:
