    See the second paragraph.
    I know that, but it doesn't say Ferris has signed an Ulster contract. There is no distinction made.

    Even if it didn't make any difference, what is the point of giving central contracts to the likes of Fitz, Trimble, and to a lesser extent Ryan - guys who haven't shown themselves to be key players for Ireland? It doesn't make logical or economic sense to me.

    They don't seem to be being used to keep the best players in the country they are instead spread around the provinces for the sake of it, examples being the last generation of Munster guys being kept on them for longer than they should (DOC, Leamy, ROG) and the token Ulster contracts (Wallace, Trimble, Fitz). If you're going to give central contracts around the provinces to be 'fair' then they might as well give the money directly to the provinces to do with as they deem fit. What is the point in central contracts staying as they are when they arent keeping the best players in ireland?

    :D:D:D:D:D. You need to give that a rest. Write to Fitzpatrick ffs and ask him to turn down the contract. Maybe he'll agree with you.
