Jake Flannery
Jake Flannery rumoured by Jackman to be moving to Ulster.
Very classy in the Grand Slam U20 team but had a long injury after that and now in a log jam with Carbery, Healy (his U20 year) and Crowley (the next U20) year.

Re: Jake Flannery
On a slightly different topic, Jackman also said 3 out of the 4 provinces are having 1 million each wiped off their budgets next year. Anybody have any more details on that?
Re: Jake Flannery
Started at full back during the U20 Grand Slam campaign in 2019, Harry Byrne was the starting out half with Ben Healy on the bench during the 6N.
He became the primary choice at out half that season when Byrne was injured for the U20 World Championships.
Serious out half talent in that 2019 U20 class.
It will be interesting if he does sign whether he'll be given opportunities at out half or full back.
It's a great signing if it does come to fruition. He's widely touted to be an international quality out half if he hits his ceiling. Does he think he has a better chance of doing that playing in our backline over Munsters.... I dare say he does.

I think he might just want to play for a better team. Lowry, Baloucoune, Stockdale, Hume, Big Stu etc or Zebo???UlsterNo9 wrote:Started at full back during the U20 Grand Slam campaign in 2019, Harry Byrne was the starting out half with Ben Healy on the bench during the 6N.

Re: Jake Flannery
If that's not what I said that's what I was trying to say, but it's more than that, it's our style of play, it's heads up play what's in front of you and express yourself. Would also argue that we're one of the best coached teams in the league, with a now proven record for giving young lads game time and developing them.Dave wrote: ↑Tue Mar 15, 2022 12:25 amI think he might just want to play for a better team.

I wonder does the money JP pumps into Munster sit outside this? Believe Sextons wage is covered externally also.

Re: Jake Flannery
When I see a one year deal for a 22 year old it may be for one of two reasons
First the young man is possibly coming to continue his education ( one year course )
Or he wants to test the water before signing a longer contract
In both instances the players expectation for his intended stay is not one were a weekly appearance on the team sheet is the prime objective during his stay .
In the first study is prime in the second a change in coaching and assessing the possibilities .

Within this carapace of skepticism there lives an optimist
Re: Jake Flannery
Can someone remind me did we not sign a young outhalf from Munster a couple of years ago? What happened to him

Re: Jake Flannery
Always liked Bill, for a 3rd / 4th choice out half during his time here it was never a case that you were watching him with your eyes covered, as we have been in the not to distant past with supposed more established out halves.

Re: Jake Flannery
I'd a quick look at Ealing teamsheets and unless he's injured he doesnt get selected.

Sounds like an Ealing Comedy to me.
His nickname isn't Barnacle Bill Johnston is it?
I'm not arguing -

Jake is on the bench for Munster tomorrow night.

I wonder what he will think of the bench at Ravenhill.
