Re: What position will Jared play?

I saw him walk through the George Best Airport ... man alive he looked slow! You're an idiot Haha very funny fleg... Although I hear that Nevin Spence and some of the Ulster boys were playing trivial pursuit tonight. All was going well and Nev had got all his questions right accumulating several pi...

Re: What position will Jared play?

This misguided assumption that Cave is slow is total fantasy. I remember speaking to one of conditioning coaches a few seasons back and at that time Nagusa was the fastest man on the team and Cave second. I have no reason to think he has slowed down any. Straight line speed is an important componen...

Re: Positives & Negatives: Ulster V Glasgee

Fair points Dave ... but to balance it out ... I'm a bit concerned with this NH obession with producing Mr Incredibles by gym work. England do that - and look at them ... Dig my guns ... polish my .... erm LDV Cup???? Yes players need a bit of extra about them, but not at the expense of slight of h...

Re: Positives & Negatives: Ulster V Glasgee

With all things being considered, D'arcy, was an excellent and timely find. Starting the season with no recognised FB was a cause for concern. He is excellent under a high ball and has many other qualities too. I just feel that if he was maybe a stone heavier he would be able to acquit himself to a ...

Re: Ulster Midfield

Its not small team survival to play your best XV when available its what is necessary for success . Players get injured take knocks and at times are not 100% that is when you rest them Then there are players like Ferris who are injury prone who you wrap in cotton wool for important games and give o...

Re: Ulster Midfield

I for one am not critcising Spence he is a gem the debate is really about how to best get the benefits from his game for the benefit of the team. The fact is we have a number of players who can play in the centre within the squad and the Academy at the moment Cave is with out doubt our best option ...

Re: Positives & Negatives: Ulster V Glasgee

by Big-al » Sat Sep 03, 2011 2:48 pm Yep, Spence look to be a winger who can play at 13. Trimble and Spence on the wings. Payne at FB and Marshall/Cave in the centre And waste our most potent attacking winger, Gilroy? Well Spence can't pass, no way is he a 12, nor should he play at 13 if Cave is fi...

It was announced on the coverage last night that there would be coverage on Radio Ulster MW. Pity no TV though.

Re: Ulster or Ireland?

I am excited for both (if thats ok with everybody). Even if Ireland weren't in the WC I'd still be excited as a fan of rugby in general. Can't wait for tonight though!!!! I'm still hopeful for Ireland though and hope that the Cup winning mentality will kick in for those that have it, rubbing off ont...

Re: Ulster - Glasgow

I only hope we aren't too complacent and stroll out thinking we'll walk it.. Some fans seem to be getting a tad arrogant Arrogance can be a help and hinderance. There is no reason why our guys should take the pitch feeling we're no good or up for a hammering. There is no reason why the fans should ...

Re: Ulster - Glasgow

Ian Whitten named on the wing doesn't look right on the team sheet. Could it work though? Has he got the attributes to play on the wing? Well he is a strapping 16 odd stone lad. He is solid if unspectacular in possession and usually runs pretty good lines from memory. Would be an excellent one on on...

Ferris at his best is a better 6 than SOB - story end of. SOB doesn't clear out rucks like Ferris does. Getting a whiff of a suggestion that a few good folk on here aren't going to be heaping too much praise onto young Seanie incase big Stevie hears about it and starts feeling a bit insecure. I hav...
