Dan McFarland out!. Seriously, OUT TE feck!! ZERO IMPROVEMENT ... same P!sh as the last 3-4 years. This guys best performance was in 2018 v Leinster at the Aviva and that was a loss ffs. Leinster bring in Nienaber with 2 world cups and we brought in Dan Soper from Banbridge. What do you expect?? Cunningham ... the ultimate grey man is he even still alive?? Every other Province bringing in Irish qualified and project players all over the show and he's found absolutely fcuk all. That's an atrocious performance and looking like zero points at home to a mediocre Edinburgh team.

McFarseland out.
He doesn't want to be here. Players can't stand him, look at Cooney and McCloskey when going off. Talked up a big expansive game but can't deliver it.
Thanks for everything but time to go.

"We'll take the learnings going forward" Has he trotted that out yet? Very reminiscent of Eddie Jones. Excuse after excuse.

He should've gone after last year's QF loss to Connacht. Nothing fresh to say. But we don't have a pot to pish in, so we're stuck.

It’s just not McFarland it’s the whole coaching ticket. Soper got this job on the back of one of the best schools sides ever. Cooney so much better than Doak but his father’s involvement gets him the position.

The coaching team is a shambles. Defence, everything. Some good kids and talent being wasted

McFarland the problem and we can’t afford to get rid of him. So for that, we should also hold Petrie accountable.CIMANFOREVER wrote:The coaching team is a shambles. Defence, everything. Some good kids and talent being wasted

There's not any one individual performance that makes me think he should go, but the Leicester job interview a few months after signing a new contract makes it clear his heart isn't in it here anymore and that for me was the line.CIMANFOREVER wrote: ↑Sat Dec 02, 2023 8:00 pm He should've gone after last year's QF loss to Connacht.

Small positives but thought Burns put jn a good shift and McNabney looked good again. In general a pretty dire performance though.

Hope Moxham is alright, looked nasty.

We should have been moving heaven and earth to entice Jared or Ruan back. The problem is from Petrie down no one is prepared to do that. A ‘marquee’ signing to get the fans excited is all they can manage. I’m sure SK is a good guy but as with Coetzee and Vermeulen they only play as good as the team around them. As has been said here many times, invest in the Academy and grow from the roots up and don’t buy a sparkly bloom while the rest of the plant rots. Well that enough of the horticultural lecture. One thing is sure, we the loyal Ulster supporters will be here come hell or high water when Petrie et al are long gone.

I’d love to see a video analysis of some of the defensive ruck involvements Rea had…MightyRearranger wrote: ↑Sat Dec 02, 2023 8:25 pmWas Rea playing? Didn't notice him...kingofthehill wrote: ↑Fri Dec 01, 2023 1:24 pm If Matty Rea makes a team then I worry

Been a rolling accumulation but yea, Leicester showed the true colours.
