Fair play. Hope it goes well for him if true. No local Academy THs then?

Madigan ? Addison ?
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!

Re: Contract Situation
Santa I understand Shinnerboots will be player coach next season, in Ulster but not at Ulster.
Addison? What a player, what a disappointment. Surely too expensive per game to offer a new contract?

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
Some positive comments about Kitshoff, sounds like the stormers could have brad pitt the bed like we did except for some good leadership.
"DHL Stormers coach John Dobson has admitted that he saw a lot of downside and even felt fear in the buildup to last week’s Vodacom United Rugby Championship quarterfinal against the Vodacom Bulls and needed help from skipper Steven Kitshoff to make him feel more positive.
Speaking in the buildup to Saturday’s URC semifinal against Connacht at the DHL Stadium, Dobson said that a lot of pressure had been released after the win over the Bulls and while he and his men are fired up to take the next step towards playing in a second successive final, there is also a lot less stress.
"I would say there is much less of a sense of dread and fear this week than there was last week, the buildup to the Bulls game was a very dread filled week,” said Dobson.
“Playing a playoff game against your arch rivals is always far tougher, it just felt like we had so much to lose. That we get to host this game, get to draw a crowd of more than 40 000 to a semifinal at home, is already a kind of win for us. So I would say there is less dread now and the occasion has more of a feel of opportunity about it.
“Last week I saw the downside the whole time and Kitsie did a great job of ensuring there was a mood of positivity in the camp,” he added

Re: Contract Situation
Stephen better keep quiet next season. It's Greg Jones' job to be good around the training paddock/babysit.
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?
Re: Contract Situation
Our local rag saying we have signed James French for next season.
Re: Contract Situation
Good signing; big enough but I understood he was a loosehead.
