Can Bryn sack him or does it have to be D4?
Don't think Bryn could sack him, hard to tell who sits where on the tree but logan is at the top so he could sack him, then again he hired him so would sacking then be an admission of getting it wrong ?

According to UR Bryn sits below KISS on the chart.. So that would take Logan the leader of men to show some of what he had when he single handedly chased the Argies into the seas.

Logan need 12,000 sales per game.. It is all that matters to the man... Have the balls to hit him where it hurts and I reckon one month would see all changes needed.

By the way some in D4 are laughing their balls off in private...

No speed in attack or defence
No aggression at the breakdown
No support runners
Not a team, just a group of players totally dependant on individual efforts.
Bad attitude, bad game plan, bad season now over.
I'm really struggling to give Kiss a bye ball on this debacle.

The score line doesn't do just to Ulsters efforts and highlights Ulster's failings.

The killer moment was Jackson's kick in 38th minute of the first half straight in to the arms of a back capable of returning at speed at a defence with more holes than a string vest .Which highliths one of the failings Ulster's kicking was woeful not one box kick was contestable the players were trying to hard and rushing to much effort and not enough thought.

In the second half the defence were trying to attack by intercept flying by the seat of their stained underwear.

Those who thought Ulster could go and play the Ospreys away with Lacey in the centre in a must win game really have a lot to learn about the psychology of the game --mentally thinking of defeat but hoping to win, which guarantees a situation of too much individual effort and lack of team work and defeat becomes a self inflected prophecy fulfilled.

Have Ulster ever won away in a BIG game at the end of a season with Lacey in the middle he's a jinx.

In fairness to rummy that try should have gone to TMO and would have been disallowed for a clear forward final pass before scoring

Rums identified the kick chase as a weakness is totally correct.
Common knowledge is that you can tell the mental state of a side by the manner in which they kick chase alone ie inaccuracies, not working in tandem and not chasing down the tackle with intent.
That sums up exactly where our side is at perfectly.

I'm always loathed to blame refs though when there was so much else lacking in our play.

Gerald, you must have been undercover at the time; I agree with every word of Rum's post. Perhaps I might have phrased it differently. :D
From the rolling glens of Antrim through the hills of Donegal we will stand and shout for Ulster as we win both scrum and maul from the lovely lakes of Fermanagh tae the shores of ould Lough Gall we will scream and shout for Ulster as we beat them one and all!
