Re: Dan’s Not the Man.
Interesting that on return to URC action, Dan Soper was rolled out for the press. In fact it’s been very noticeable recently that McFarland has increasingly been off the radar in comms, and Soper has been doing more and more - in the past McFarland has been squarely front and centre. And it’s been ...

Unless there’s some KPI’s we’re missing it’s not like he’s done a stellar job here.Paulshieldsfanclub wrote: ↑Thu Feb 08, 2024 12:45 pm Anyone else heard if Petrie leaving at the end of the season? Chat he applied for the vacant Scotland CEO post..

Re: Contract Situation
Really begs the question who is running the accounts, some seriously questionable decisions being made lately - signing Coetzee, Vermuelan, Kitschoff and Ewers on big money bar maybe Ewers, on top of the massive academy/sub-academy intake this year too. Doesn’t reflect well on Petrie giving the abov...

Re: Contract Situation
I think the more worrying part of the report is that we are doing this as part of a cost cutting exercise. That means there will be no big money NIQ replacement. Or I think any replacement at all. If the Leinster players were moving they would go to Munster, just like carberry, though that was a lu...

Re: TRANSFER RUMOURS!!
I see there’s some doubt over the future of Mako and Billy Vunipola at Saracens. Given the level of dislike of all things Saracen on this site, would you be in favour of them having contracts with Ulster, if the NIQ nonsense was gone? Supposing they had not played for England and were free? Billy w...

Re: Dan’s Not the Man.
I don't know about us having a quality team. My 1st XV: Kitshoff - Top quality international. Herring - very good Euro standard. Always done well in Green as well. Marty - was very good Euro standard but looks done. Hendy - Top Quality International. Treadwell - URC standard Ewers - should be a ver...

Re: Dan’s Not the Man.
McCall leaving Sarries and turning down probably a host of quality job offers to come to Ulster, would be a akin to him leaving a high-end 6-figure job in London/New York to go work as a Level 4 Civil Servant job on 30k a year at County Hall in Ballymena. Not. A. Chance. Bit of hyperbole there perh...

Re: Reset button required?
Not sure about the Payne love in, he’s clearly a very good coach but Scarlets are arguably worse than us at the minute. It would be a risk to take him back at this stage imo. Lots more guys out there who could steady the ship well.

Re: Any word on the Academy?
Ward & Ellerby surely likely to get Academy places this year then. Kenny I’m assuming would have been involved only for his injury. McKillop & Brigg long term injuries also. Solomon, Longstaff, Lee & Montgomery missing out? Thought when selected for the recent Irish combined academies g...

Re: AIL Energia Leage Rugby/Ulster League
I went to watch Queens earlier in the season against Buccs (they lost), having watched them a fair few times over the last couple of years, and they looked a shadow of the team they were… They’ve lost a significant number of players to other clubs and are also playing 1B which would be a big step u...
