Re: Ulster 2023/24
I would get rid of Bryn Cunningham as well and just have a clean sweep of it. A lot of the problems at Ulster seem to be from the top down so remove them all and start a fresh with a onus on player development.

Re: Ulster 2023/24
Supposedly Kitshoff is heading back to the Stormers at the end of the season. The upside is it looks like McCloskey is staying.

Re: Connacht 2023/24
The frustration is they could have played one another and called it an A game. I'm sure Murphy would have loved a pre-game where he could see what he was working with before his first URC game.

Re: Connacht 2023/24
by berliner I am mystified by the approach to Burke. While Buckley was injured, he stepped up and put in a lot of good performances. After that he had an injury and they've basically never used him again. We see very little of Jordan Duggan but Buckley and Dooley are being flogged. It strikes me as...

Re: Ulster 2023/24
Delighted to see Sheridan and Wilson in the Ulster team. Glad that Murphy has backed them and hopefully they shine in a rejuvenated team.

Re: Zebre v Leinster Sat 23 March KO 7:35pm RTE2
Can't believe Prendergast already has 12 caps. Good to see McKee back and hoping for a good game.
[edit] Excited to see Mangan too.

Re: IRB World Rankings
A part of me would love to see Spain in the world cup and another part of me is wondering how they would f*ck it up again.

Re: Rumour Mill
by ronk That would be a red flag. You don't want people like that in your dressing room. If he won't play hard in Oz he won't play hard for us. TBF his conditioning seems horrible and they are slowly bringing him back a chunk of minutes at a time. by artaneboy That’s not the choice though. It’s whe...

Re: Ulster 2023/24
Put this on a different thread as didn't know where to discuss it. We've had good success before with Healy playing at TH and Porter switching back and forth so it's not implausible. The problem they could have is Jager looks like he could be out for the rest of the season with a knee injury. Ulster...

Apparently there are rumours that Ireland and looking to move Tom O'Toole to LH?! What do people think of it?

Re: Re: Ireland vs Scotland, Saturday, 4.45pm
Thought he were great. Was talking to a friend of mine and he mentioned that the foreign rugby press are a lot more complimentary of Crowley than our own press which seems true (at least around here). Silverware should always be celebrated. The team is in a state of change but still keeping high sta...

Re: South Africa: Springboks
Scotland's summer tour is of the Americas, with Tests against USA, Canada, Chile and Uruguay. I wonder if this is beneficial getting such an easy ride? Kudos to them though for supporting some of the up and coming teams.

Re: 6 Nations 2024
We could technically win the Triple Crown after the first 3 games which would be odd. Not sure if that would help us or hinder us.

Re: Re: Ireland vs Scotland, Saturday, 4.45pm
by enby One thing I'll say for Crowley is that he is quite a good tackler for a 10. The experience he has gained this season should really stand to him. He does however have much work to do on his place kicking which is pretty bang average. If his kicking was at the level of Ramos's or Russell's ki...

Re: Re: Ireland vs Scotland, Saturday, 4.45pm
Think Crowley has done well. As for Harry Byrne it was another bang average performance. People keep telling me he's going to be great but quite frankly unless there is a big improvement soon I can't see it. He's not terrible but he ain't the player we thought he was going to be either. Thought Scot...

Re: Re: Ireland vs Scotland, Saturday, 4.45pm
I imagine that Ireland are going to target the center and try and make this poor chaps second cap a living hell. Looking forward to it!12. Stafford McDowall – Glasgow Warriors (1)
