Humphreys up for the challenge

Former Ulster Director of Rugby David Humphreys yesterday broke his silence about his move away from Ravenhill to Aviva Premiership side Gloucester.

The 42-year-old former Ulster captain, who made 72 appearances for Ireland, said that the opportunity was a “good fit for me and my family.”

Humphreys’s announced departure at the beginning of June stunned all associated with Ulster after 22 years of service to the province.
