Surprised to hear Ulster let Callum Smith and Cormac Fox go from the sub academy.

Doesn't quite add up, given need for 10's in province.

Don’t know much about fox but smith isn’t good enough for professional rugby. Good enough for AIL.

Lowry had just started training with seniors before his injury set back. Will be back in January and by all accounts will be given a chance soon.

Get excited,this guy is a superstar.

Fox is a super wee player. Great boot and his distribution skills have improved a lot this season from what I have seen.

I hope Lowry proves me wrong but a 5'5 out half with no kicking game doesn't really say superstar.
