So they need a prop of last resort for the A team and don’t want to pay agents fees. Dumb or smart¿

Purely hypothetical of course, but yeah :scratch:

And some of you wonder why I consider Bryn incompetent?

A self edited highlights package is all the recommendation needed?

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:


edit: There are several very highly rated LH props in D4 - of course - they aren't getting a look in because ahead of them are arguably two of the top 5 LH props in the world.

Now, if I were in charge of acquiring a LH prop, and I'd more than 2 brain cells to rub together - I'd be down talking to Leo Cullen, the fellas (Peter Dooley & Ed Bryne) and see if they can be persuaded up the road.

Or maybe it's a public ad ensuring protocols are followed so the club can't be accused of tapping up a player who is currently in contract

If I was any other form of prop, I'd have them up in front of an employment tribuneral quick smart. Discriminatory.

Mentioned on the 12th - on the Rumours section.

As many on here would say, "Keep Up".

UR listing 44 players as First Team Squad. Many yutes.

Oh yes and Farmer Hond photographed training.

Says that there is a Pro14 club seeking an Irish qualified loosehead prop. Competitive salary. Applicants to send rugby CV and highlights video.

I am not joking.
Crouchie is not joking Snipe, not mentioned by name but .............. I wonder is Hond on a Marcel contract or is he actually insured? If not insured perhaps it's time to send around a few guys with wooly faces to let him know Norn Iron could be bad for his failing health. :terror: :terror: :terror: After all, we know the UVF still have weapons after their bus hijacking last night.

Looks like a busy year for Big Licence.
What's the problem with that advert? If we need a squad prop, why not list it on a job board? It's not as if it's in the Job Finder in the BT. It's an established board for rugby jobs.
I think it's just another example of wanting to find fault with UR whether it's justified or not.

That’s what I said earlier. It does not say “starting Loosie want to play in PRO14”,it says for club in PRO14.

We don't need a squad prop.

We need some hardnosed f**ker that lives on raw meat and is hungry to dish out copious amounts of pain. Not another "punch the ticket" saft tackling jersey filler thank you very much.

We have no problem growing our own saft fatties. As Amiga rightly mentions, we need a starting LH who chews bricks (without sugar) for breakfast and wrestles rhinos for relaxation. Our lot make the Dalai Lama seem aggressive.
The ad smacks of desperation, but can anyone convincingly argue we aren’t in a desperate situation?

It's the bit asking for a highlights package. It appears we are willing to offer an 'attractive' package to someone who we have never seen play.
