Hopefully UR Negotiated Stockcube into taking a serious pay cut otherwise it is once again a shambles for a player that hasn’t done very much in an Ulster jersey in a very long time. Anyone know where DV is away to?

The non attendees have their own WhatsApp group. It's me, rum, Clive, Baggy and swiss Tony. There is a lot of spit. It's wild stuff, honestly. Hopefully the cost of living crisis continues so we keep this up.

Agreed, mate. Every SUFTUM helps though.

McDonald and Declan Moore off to Connacht. Original A team announcement mentioned that it was Madigan’s final season at Ulster, since changed.

Loan moves for McDonald and Moore rather than permanent ones which is interesting.

Something that should be considered more. Especially us loaning some delicious privately educated D4 talent, fresh from the conveyer belt of chunky forwards.

The UR site indicates that Moore is signed up with us for another season but that McDonald only came on a one year deal.

If it’s a loan then we must have extended his contract.

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.
