Given Cipriani’s past I think he may be talking about a different kind of cap

Can’t see why there would be any tax issues - co-investment property companies with the senior players would have to file tax returns. Any surreptitious payments to players through Sarries would still be tax deductible even if they weren’t declared to the salary cap authorities. The only dodgy eleme...

Oh how times have changed though - a few seasons ago would have wanted Wuss to win to take points of our rivals. Now I wanted Exeter to win for the same reason!

Another area we need consistency from the refs and this one is easy as it’s fairly black and white. There was an incidence in the World Cup - might have been Aus vs Wales but I forget - when despite the kick going over the posts after time was up the referee said there would be a restart. How can he...

That’s correct - it should have been the last kick of the match as penalty was definitely awarded with less than 60 seconds left. Hopefully someone has a word with Hardwick as that could have spoilt what was an excellent performance by the lad.

Agreed JP14 - don’t think he put a step right all game

Hardwick should be playing 10 and Reid 12 - their preferred pisitions I believe - and based on last weeks game. Any coach that doesn’t see that is dumb. Another week with zero points IMHO.

When Cockers and Mauger were sacked in short order we needed a non-Tigers experienced coach which the board were scouring the world for. We ended with MOC as he was available and had the phone number and the ear of the right person on the board. Following the debacle of his time in charge and its de...

Not a million miles away from the game I saw on Sunday I am afraid to say

Well I was there today with my 83 year old dad and as normal at the start of a season I was bigging up our new players and Murphs et al having a full pre-season. When we walked out afterwards I apologised to my old man that we had tickets for next week. That was dire - yes some marginal improvements...

Negativity is for Daly - just not an international 15 defensively - not the first time I have posted this. Doesn’t tackle like a 15 and poor under the high ball. Negativity is also on dropping your best player to counter a perceived strength of the opposition .... a win for Cheika. Farrell good play...

Play to your strengths - I see why EJ has picked his 10/12/13 to counter the Aussies but dropping your best player from the last 3+ tests to counter the threat hands them the psychological advantage especially when Farrell has been bang average in the tournament to date. And I’be said it more than o...

And it’s now the middle of October and your point is???

Just announced on BBC it’s cancelled - wonder whether the Japan vs Scotland game on Sunday in the same stadium will also fall foul of the weather (or as the Scots will call it - a conspiracy ).

That is the position we find ourselves in Big Dai - I preferred it when we were at the top but now we are near the bottom - support we must. As Bill used to say - keep the faith. It will be better next season ...... hopefully
