The UAFC

Haven't followed this one bit, how many directors in Kingspan have been implicated? Doing a quick Google search it looks like Malcolm Rochefort retired early, anyone else? To describe a company as having a 'culture of festering depravity' whatever that means, sure would need proof of the majority of...

Deegan and Penny have both played two or three hours more rugby than Conan this season. Maybe it’s Jack we should be getting when his contract is up in twelve months. Jacks turned down a move to Ulster, several times. I suppose he’d say it paid off but the perceptions about who is sitting in the st...

When we reach the point, in 3/4 years time when there are more Leinster players than homegrown playing for Ulster, I’m assuming that the club will have a change of name. There must be some suitable acronym. I do understand your point, it definitely is frustrating that we aren't developing more qual...

I think he is an inch or two shorter than ideal.

This is definitely good news. If a third choice Leinster player doesn't have a strong financial incentive to potentially be first choice at another province then clearly the system isn't right.

Stewart having a shocker of a game so far, Postlethwaite playing well.

Surely the best response the players could do to make a point to Ferris is to just unfriend him en masse. Or stop Conceding 40/50points? That’s the only way they will win respect of former players. This is not a great Ulster side. Our most naturally gifted player by a distance is Jacob Stockdale, a...

I would have Moore instead of Lowry, Wilson instead of O'Toole, and Izzy instead of AOC as others have said but Murphy will probably think differently.

D4 do care now, and rightly so, when we're running at a loss, we're a parasite draining the coffers. This feeling sorry for ourselves that we don't get the rub from D4 needs to stop, the wow me feeling sorry for ones self, the chip on the shoulder, its pathetic...... the IRFU is a business, if one ...

I do question what is good about UR non playing staff, who is actually top notch? Bryn I do think has to go, and the main questions about building a great culture are what structures you want, and what people. With Petrie and Bryn it has felt there has been no clear accountability, clear responsibil...

Bryn Ward (Backrow)
James McKillop (Lock/Backrow)
Jack Murphy (Flyhalf)
Sam Berman (Centre)
Wilhelm de Klerk (Flyhalf/Centre)

Have either of the out Half's got good potential?

Good luck to him, I hope it goes well. The question that needs to be answered though is what would success look like, what is his remit and what is Bryn's (and Dublin too obviously). I would guess what he would be trying to do is create a great culture with the administrative type people, trying to...

Was hard listening to the song 'four proud provinces of Ireland' when there isn't an Ulsterman in sight!
