Horua does OK - he captained the Wallabies Under 21's from memory, was doing OK but took off to Japan for a while, came back, joined the Force in '08 and was on fire till he did his knee in, he's just coming into his own again now. You blokes will get him at a peak in his form I reckon ....

Cheers Cobber and welcome to Ulster! Hadnt realised he had a stint in Japan that explains why he only amassed 42 s12/14 caps since 2002.

Fingers crossed he can stay injury free here and make a name for himself.

I hope not he has always shown such promise, and I could only imagine it would be a work permit issue.
Why? Why not?

I shall bend some peoples ears at the weekend, but I would really like to know the truth about it.

He has shown such character and commitment sticking around all this time. And his brief cameos this season have been quality.

I take it he's gone back to New Zealand, its a pity but hopefully he gets a chance to become a pro down there.

Mike Reid said Ulster will expect to sign a hooker, backrower and lock about 1 month ago. The backrower is Horuo and many beleived the hooker would be Michael Essex who is moving to L Irish and that the lock would be :afro: . I head we could be signing the Dungannon hooker but who will the lock be. Surely he must be Irish qualified?
