The URSC Information Point situated within the
food village opposite the Kukri shop has proved
a huge hit with fans - fill in your membership
forms, sign up for away trips, get your tickets
for the BBQ... or simply come over for a chat.
We usually also have a player there to sign
autographs or share in selfies...at the Scarlets
match it was Rob Herring. Who will be there
today? At the Connacht match our friends from
the Connacht Clan presented URSC with a piece
of Connacht Bog Oak crafted by Westies’ player
Ronan Loughrey. URSC gave the Clan a URSC
paperweight.

So who within the Ulster squad has
impressed this season?
» » Rob Herring has been a regular stand in
skipper and such is his ability in the loose
stand out back row!
» » Franco van der Merwe has been a model of
consistency whilst partnering Tuohy, Browne,
Diack, O’Connor & Stevenson in the ‘row
» » Nick Williams has been back to his
barnstorming best… we are gonna miss him
» » Paddy Jackson, unwanted by Ireland, has
used his consistent game time to pull the
strings for Ulster
» » Stuart McCloskey has been immense
throughout the season, deservedly getting
his first Irish cap and Twickenham - a
performance that should earn him further
international recognition
» » Craig Gilroy, another deemed not good
enough for Ireland, continues to use his
dancing feet to score regularly for Ulster
» » Luke Marshall has put his injuries behind
him and has put in a series of fine Ulster
performances meriting a return to the Irish
squad
These are just some of the Ulster players that
have shone this season – but the choice of player
is yours. All Ulster players are eligible to be voted
