Waiting on Easyslut to refund some flights... they have the "ask for refund" part well hidden on their website and I can't be arsed sitting on a phone all day for less than £100 - I'm guessing it will be a few months before I see it, if I ever do...

Have any of the boys in the released from the academy spent less than 3 years in it or are the egos still too big to admit that they were wrong about a player at under 15s level?

Speaking with a friend of mine who’s a GP yesterday. Younger people who’ve had it are presenting with some weird outcomes including skin issues and kidney problems. It’s not as simple as oh, get the flu and get over it. We are still learning about the consequences of this virus. Herd immunity is on...

Remember to do it with the other hand sometimes, you don't want repetitive strain.

2nd XV rugby is were it is really at. A well matched fixture is usually the best rugby you'll see all season. While there is still structure to the game there are always a couple of talent boys who are too big a liability to play in the AIL because they think are the second coming of Campo!

Bill V is a total moron.

He could also have pissed on someones leg, taken the "wrong" prescription or put a racist picture on the internet.

Matt Sexton was a great player - who is a better overseas hooker? Ulster haven't had one. Robbie Kempson was also a monster for Ulster back in the day - I'd pick him over Afoa any day of the week.

so lads, what do we think the take up will be here for a contact tracing app. And anybody know what the minimum take up is for it to be effective? I reckon it will be about 65% opt in. but assume it needs to be at least 75-80% opt in to be effective First question to ask is what percentage of the p...

My personal favourite overhyping of an Ulster player was Paul Marshall. Around 2012-13 if memory serves, there were serious calls from Ulster Facebookers for him to be 2nd fiddle to Murray. Now I think he was off the back of a relatively blooper-less season for his standards but still, it was eithe...

Said it before but Roger Wilson is the kind of guy you want around the squad, he's a lot better than some of other back row signings we've had and bar his bad hamstring tear was pretty durable. Just a good squad man, him and Williams didn't work well together though when both starting. Was also a g...

Howe did he get onto the Lions :lol: Howe and Longwell got far more caps than their talents deserved... I won't hear a bad word against big Gary.

Lots of youngsters on here. Hickie was the first Irish winger, probably since O'Reilly, to really make you sit up and take notice. The fact that he was never picked for a Lions tour will long be a blemish on both the Ulster and Munster branches. Don't blame us ffs, it was the Con Mafia refusing to ...

Shane Horgan shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as Tommy Bowe, not even close to his level. Hickie was quality though. I watched back some of the old games on TV recently. Horgan was a fine player and stands comparison if slightly behind Tommy Bowe. Bowe had 69 caps and Horgan 65, both made ...

Brian Moore once recalled a time that Jason Leonard was getting a bit of physio treatment and an opposition player shouted 'it's not a physio he needs ref, it's a midwife'. Can't recall who said it.
