I remember doing a school’s coaching session at medallion level when I was a player Ulster Rugby back in the day Darren Cave was a student, I watched him turn into the best Ulster Rugby 13 of the pro era and I’m proud to have worked with him throughout. Go well mate.

Election posters up in Belfast. When will we move away from this binary approach to voting along historical lines? Why do the majority of candidates all look like my profile pic (middle aged men) Hard to vote for any of the “major” parties as they haven’t put in a decent shift.

I grew up watching Pat Rafter and Lleyton Hewitt doing Australia proud on the tennis court, gritty competitors who always left it out there win or lose. Tomic and Kyrgios are not my flavour, I just don’t get it.
