00:00 - I’m not one to target and belittle people but I just don’t know how an ‘accredited’ journalist would be so out of touch to write this. How does the @IndoSport even print this rubbish??? It’s utterly disrespectful to all the players and the fans #Mind-blowing
- A picture is worth a thousand words. Gutted with the result yesterday but I’ve never been part of a team that left it all out there like we did. Thanks for the amazing support as always #suftum
- Sorry but there is nothing wrong with this. He’s not watching on tv. He’s physically competing with 100kg + people. He’s competing in a contact sport. If he did it to me it would not bother me (bar me shitting myself 😂). I’m sure it happens all the time across club level!

- 3 years ago today. Best decision I’ve made and I’ve loved (Nearly) every minute of it. Even though I had an awful first day and was sleeping on a mattress on the floor. What doesn’t kill you...😂
- I’ve had 3 shoulder surgeries and neck disc damage. But I would still dive in front of anything for this jersey! I am the ultimate speed bump 😂💪 #UlsterTilIDieGreat win for @UlsterRugby in the RDS last night and Billy Burns was superb. I know he got his head on the wrong side but this is some tackle by John Cooney to stop Dan Sheehan scoring in the corner. Especially as he would have seen him late with the NFL style obstruction from

00:00- Delighted to have signed on with Ulster until 2022. I’ve found it so easy to settle in here and have loved how supportive and passionate the Ulster fans are. I’m Looking forward to what the future holds and hopefully celebrate some trophies together #SUFTUM 🔴⚪️
