From Ulster's front row to the art world. Not your typical career change!
Former Ulster prop Niall Conlon joins Peter Lockhart and Gareth Steenson on the Stand Up Ulster Rugby Podcast for a bit of a catch-up.
Niall looks back on his rugby days, coming through the ranks at Ulster, the characters he played alongside and his time at Cambridge. We also hear how he went from professional rugby to working in finance in London before packing it all in to become a full-time artist.
Plenty of old rugby stories, a bit of reminiscing with former teammate Gareth, and a really interesting chat about life after rugby.
We also get Niall's thoughts on the current Ulster side and where things are going.
Hope you enjoy this one!
