[QUOTE="Peat, post: 644520, member: 42330"] That's the rumour, but following the Ludik thing I'll believe it when I see it. Even if he does come, he'll offer us openside cover to replace Sean Doyle - who really should have been kept - but won't boost the front line. For my money we need more big ball carriers up front, other than Fat Nick and Henderson there's not really a lot there, not with Fez at the very best being part time next season. I'd agree that Ulster need to start blooding some back rows, the current lot are reaching the point where succession planning starts to get a little urgent. I'd like to see Joyce get more games, I think he's got the physicality if he can gain the experience, and most importantly he's not Mike McComish. Frankie Taggart and Lorcan Dow are both meant to be good - Dow's meant to be a tank - while Josh Atkinson and James Gallagher both might have something about them for the future. Urgently need some of them to pull the finger out. Of course, Henderson's an option too, but I think some of the young locks need to step up for Anscombe to consider that... I hope the next Ulster coach agrees with me that Payne's a 15, Henderson's a 6 and that Olding should always start. I'd be ****** if we got another Anscombe. [/QUOTE]
