Re: Contract situation
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.
Re: Contract situation
WTF is the story with the outstanding contracts? Bit buzzard to still not bounce anything, unless agents are playing hardball and things really aren't done and dusted?

Announcement should be soon. IRFU maybe letting dust settle after what's happened earlier on in year.

Trimble not going the way of Donnacha Ryan, surely?

He has signed for 2 years, one-half of which is central, t'other he's apparently an Ulsterman.damianmcr wrote:Didn't someone say he has signed a new 2yr deal.
I too find it bizarre that there are several players who we hear have been contracted but no announcement made, that others are apparently "let go" but we are not yet told.
eg, Callum Black, prop or baldy barista ? I'd plump for the latter but don't know

Re: Contract situation
I'll reserve judgement till I get a cup of whatever he's making.
May be some time though as I am normally in the area on a Monday and they dont get out of bed on a Monday

His Ma is from skin town. Never heard of him but I'm choosing to be outraged. Did we at least speak to him? Do we have a file on him?
There is no alternative to p.
