Stand Up: An Ulster Rugby Show

Right, let’s not sugarcoat it - Ulster Rugby’s season was… not great, but we’re gonna keep the chins up and have a chat about it anyway! Join us for the big send-off of the Red Hand Podcast, where me and the lads, Fergus and Ian, are joined by comedian and die-hard Ulster fan Ian Thompson and Ulster Rugby legend Stevie Ferris. We’ll be yapping away, throwing out some half-decent takes, a few dodgy...

Join me on the latest episode of The Red Hand as we dissect Ulster Rugby’s gut-wrenching loss to the Sharks, unpacking where it went wrong and what it means for the rebuild. I’m joined by Dan, Ian, the insightful Caolan Scully from Munster’s Red Army Podcast , and former Ulster and Ireland star Ian Madigan, who brings his razor-sharp perspective. We dive into Richie Murphy’s young squad and previe...

On this episode of the Red Hand Podcast I'm joined by former Ireland u-20s, Ulster, Highlanders and Ospreys second row Jack Regan. Jack took the road less travelled - from Leinster to Ulster's academy to New Zealand, Wales and Japan before taking early retirement stemming from health concerns - it's a story worth listening to. Dan and I really enjoyed chatting to Jack and we hope you enjoy listeni...

Red Handers, it's good to be back! In this episode I'm joined by a class panel featuring Fergus, Bill, Deric and Nathan. We chat about Ulster's festive period, look ahead to the upcoming games and give a mid-season assessment of where Ulster are at. Enjoy!

Depending on who you ask last weekend was either full positives or the end of the world for Ulster fans. To help you decide how to feel about Ulster at the minute I'm joined by Jack, Ian, Dan and Maz McMillan - Bordeaux fan originally from Ulster - joins us on the pod. Enjoy!

This week's episode is a father and sons special. We try and avoid talking about the game but inevitably end up discussing the clash with Toulouse and where Ulster go from here.

On this episode Nathan, Dan, Fergus and I are joined by rugby expert and all round legend Brett Igoe. We talk about Ulster, Leinster, Ireland and everything else in between. Enjoy!

A tough day at the office against the Bulls at the weekend, but the lads got the all important 'moral victory': a spirited performance from a young and inexperienced side against a team packed with Springboks. Can Richie's men bounce back this weekend against Connacht? The lads discuss this and more on the pod. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkYXptY0fs4

We have a great episode in store for you this week. Legendary European cup and Premiership winning out-half Gareth Steenson joins the panel to talk about what he has been up to recently and gives his take on the Ulster 10 jersey. Always great to listen to Gareth. The lads discuss Ulster’s game against the Lions last weekend, look ahead to the clash with the Bulls and go through the Red Hand Mailbo...

Really enjoyed chatting to Robert, David, Alan and Ian Whitten about their respective rugby careers and their time playing together in the same team for Instonians (which included a Senior Cup win and incredible unbeaten streak).

I am delighted to be joined on this episode by former Ulster and Ireland centre Kevin Maggs. Kevin was known for his hard hitting, physical style in defence and attack, making him a fan favourite for club and country. In this episode, Kevin charts his journey from taking up the game at a relatively late age to going from laying kerbs and playing for his local team on Saturday to playing alongside...

Loved chatting to former Rainey, Ulster, Dragons and Wales hooker, Bradley Roberts, a while back for this episode which is being re-released following the announcement of his recent retirement. His story is like something from a far-fetched Hollywood script. From club rugby, to pro rugby to international rugby in less than a calendar year. Remarkable.

This is the first re-release of some of my favourite episodes. Sean Reidy is a very common answer when you ask Ulster fans for their favourite player of the modern era. Sean typified the 'fight for every inch' mantra. Despite not being born here, Sean always fought for the jersey for Ulster and Ireland and is very fondly remembered in the province. There have definitely been times recently...
