He is saying February…. by then the season could be beyond us but thankfully in such a brad pitt league a couple of wins and we will be back on top of the world.

Why bother putting him in the SDC squad?

why indeed maybe they are living in cloud cuckoo land… I suppose a risk when you sign a player who then sustains a serious injury before he arrives and is unable to play for 9 months.. Maybe Ulster needed to be ruthless draw a line and go after another big name signing to both fill the gap and actually get on the park and do what needs done now not in 9 months..

Not the Ulster Way… we will likely give Wilson & Diack another year which is as much to do with desperation as anything.

If Wilson gets another year, I'm not renewing my ST. (Unless it is clear they are paying him less than the value of my ST)

I'm not convinced even Wilson will want another year, mind is still there but body is no longer at the races, it comes to everyone in every walk of life

Last season his pregnant wife was running rings around him. I like Roger but he's done.

BR … I should also add Bowe to that list as it is our way to reward loyal Sons of Ulster. If he earns it then maybe a one year but we will give it anyhow unless he ends up retiring with an injury.

Wilson shoudn't be in the situation he is, 25-30 minutes per week coming off the bench to see out games is where he should be.

Ulster lack of back row talent has meant the old horse is being flogged.

and someone should have seen that coming from a distance… Henry was injured and need eased back, Williams was going and Roger was 46 with 756 appearances and we needed that filled. I know nothing grows on trees but with this in mind we signed a world class winger albeit one dumped by the AB's and had time to let him play at Wasps for a year then signed a seriously injured BOK who may just be back by February. I still feel we could have pressured D4 more to release one of Leinster's back-row players if even short term.

and yes it isn't Rogers fault he is an Ulsterman through and through..

Roger wasn't the only one, Neil Best went because he couldn't get a massage but at least they went to Northampton, Bowe went to the Ospreys.

BR, that's my thoughts regarding Paul Marshall. I have a young family and have better things to spend £230 on than watching that fool pretend to be a rugby player.
