BelTel (who i’ll take with a pinch of salt on this one since they got the Bryn call wrong) are saying that we have no manufacturer for next season’s kit yet as the Kappa deal has fallen through and that Kingspan were happy to renew their sponsorship for the stadium rights but Ulster took too long an...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
I don't think you can blame him for the ones that were the right option but just didn't work out. Kitsoff is definitely the right player for Ulster at present. If the coaches don't get the best out of him or the atmosphere around the squad doesn't allow him to settle, that's not on Bryn. Coetzee, a...

Can't be much worse than Bryn who I hope goes with him.
Funny that this happened with Petrie claiming not long ago that he wasn't for going. He's either a liar, or clearly incompetent enough to get sacked.

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Don’t think he’s as good as furlong. Furlong when younger was a world class scrummager, world class ball carrier and tackler with a huge work rate. Wilson is doing well though, I think he’s still 21 with a bit of pace and power with ball in hand. Big lad and there is no harder challenge for a prop ...

One takeaway from the weekend for me is Scott Wilson. Every time I've seen him he has been very impressive and he came off the bench and was rock solid against Ox Nche on Saturday. He could be the new Furlong. Don’t think he’s as good as furlong. Furlong when younger was a world class scrummager, w...
