Any lads know Glenmalure Lodge in Wicklow? Danny Dowling has died suddenly. Not sure of cause. He played rugby in Invercargill, Southland.

We basically had a second string side out. Sheridan is going to be a serious operator for Ulster. He’s a real workhorse. Very impressed by Postlewaithe. He’s a future international.

It's a disgrace. Some of those fans should be forced down to Munster.

Classic nordie economics. Let England pay for it He wants money because themmuns are getting money.

Would the cost of build and disruption to Ulster be worth it for 2k additional seats ? Of course it would be, if it’s financed by a government grant. There will be a time in the future when we are a highly competitive team where we will easily fill out a 20,000+ Ravenhill. When Ulster have went far...

Professionalism. Gotta love it. Also, importantly, the need to accurately value tradition within the system. I'm far from sure that's been done. If it had been, then Munster, for example, would likely be based out of Cork. Demographics and potential upside vs tradition. TP would have been modernize...

Especially considering that after all expenses we'll have cleared close on € 2.5m from our last two home matches.

I see him more as a Roy Keane/George Hook/Franno media troll long term, and I think he does too. That's what he is.

Fair to whom?
To the private owned teams.

The benefits for those under the Union umbrella is vast. I could list them but it would take a while to write them all down.

Can you list the reasons why it is unfair to the privately owned teams please?
