Happy to be wrong if it means Hendy staying and retiring from international rugby after the RWC.

I think the entitlement went out the window a few years back. Sounds like irfu will listen to any case for an NIQ, if that’s more than 3 then it still will be looked it even though unlikely.

Stockdale not getting an extension on irfu deal isn’t great for the budget.

Ulster business is done as far as I see it.

There has to be several cases. Especially at tight head as we could literally need to forfeit a fixture, costing more than the NIQ salary. Second row I would argue, also. A breakdown specialist at 7. A 10, as suggested.

I have my own tv channel, what have you got?

Montauban apparently according to the French media (assuming they stay in Pro D2). Currently 3rd bottom with 2 games to go, 4 points ahead of 15th (Carcassonne) who go down.

Montauban host Carcassonne in Round 29 next weekend, 10 pointer.

Forwards coach, Roddy Grant, has signed a new two-year deal, which will see him remain at the province until at least 2025.

Don't think even the most negative of us would argue against that.

Forwards outscoring backs, we can make it over the gain line more often than not, scrum gains parity or better in most games.

Going back a few seasons if Nick Williams wasn't playing we didn't get over the gain line and without Marty Moore our scrum retreated like it was on the beaches of Dunkirk we are in a much better place.

Roddy is a wizard. Give him Dan's job on an interim basis when Dan gets his dream move. Bring back Jared.
