We're gettin' rid.

The end.

Seriously need Cooney to get his form back double quick. Was injured, given an Ireland start as his comeback, was modest, played Caaaadiff, was modest, MOTH ?????

You cannot win matches without halfbacks, especially away. Cooney on form gives one half of the equation, Burns screws it up, he is nowhere near good enough. All clowns celebrating Nucibastard blocking Jantjies and the recruiting of Burns, who as a lowly cricketer once informed Mark Waugh, is not even the best player in his house, need to wise the fackin' pan.

I fear a bad season has been made worse by the Burns situation. We have a guy who offers nothing but was heralded as a great signing and we will not do the right thing which would be to buy him a farm and allow him to concentrate on sausage production whilst M'Phillips played back up to Lowry. But oh fu'cking no, we are intent on wasting Lowry, in much the same fashion as many of Paddy Wallace's best years were wasted before he assumed his best position.

When shyte hits the fan and fate deals you a crap hand, you suck it up, get on with it and make things as best as your resources allow, what you don't do is contribute further to making things worse. King Billy Burns just makes things worse. I deeply regret his signing.

At least Henry's presence is a transitory aberration which has only weeks to live. We don't help ourselves, having spunked serious cash on two guys who are no better than what is in the system.

He's here to get his CAP payments before they end.

My concern is why Dan and the team can't see how poor Burns is. McPhillips has improved the back line everytime he has appeared.(given my limited knowledge of such things..) ditto Lowry. But Burns will start unless injured.

What of Gilroy & Cave? Personally, I'd go Addison Fullback or 13, Ludik F/B or wing, Cave at 13 depending on who's fit.
Up front, it's a toss up between Timoney and Reidy IMO. Gut says Reidy to counter Scarlets back row threat. Is their magnificent 7 Davies fit? Cassiem gave us multitude problems last time, waltzing through us at will.

We have little or no depth below the starting pack in the forwards, Timoney, Reidy and Herring aside. We're goosed if Warwick isn't fit, unless McCalls fit again?
I do agree go with Nagle (never thought Id' say that) if AOC's out.

Whats the update on our injured? Herbst, McCall, Little, Curtis, Marshall etc.? All very quiet.

I see Tommy O'Hagan was back playing AIL. I think he's worth a look at some point.

[Joe Schmo]

Warwick and AOC both not available for Fridays match.

[Dave]

Did I hear that Kyle McCall is back?

Did I hear that Kyle McCall is back?

He is, as is O'Hagan, though O'Hagan wasn't initially registered for Europe.

How many knees done on that pitch now?

The knee issue may not be pitch related, rather a reflection on the squat obsession pervading Ulster training... Words of a trainer and skilled physio, not me... As my knowledge of squatting is frankly squat

I blame twerking!

Don't ask Big License if he does twerk or you'll have Andy Murray to answer to!

I'm just wondering how many without laying blame. The entire rugby world is fairly obsessed with the squat.

If McCall is back will Ulster be forced to pick him in the squad as the only other LH registered and fit is EOS?

I know there was the option of registering the Hond previously but not sure if Ulster took it up.
