Olowefela and Odogwu should be included in the chat about wingers that didn't make it here, the latter becoming an Italian international The former couldnt tackle and almost anyone to a man said Saints got the better brother, the latter had apparently an attitude that stank as he thought he was big...

Diamond “ You’d expect a reaction coming up to little old Newcastle, and we’ll have to be at our best to stay close to them. “They’ll turn to their mauling game, and it must be a new Australian technique or something with their head coach Dan McKellar because they’ve got blockers in all over those ...

Lifted from X "The RFU has issued a statement on the TMO confusion at the weekend. It says that the TMO has already made a decision before Austin raised the incident. The RFU says it was ‘regrettable’ the conversation was broadcast. However, “TMOs do not actively listen or react to the broadca...

When Luke Pearce was on GBR being interviewed ages ago now he insists that his team especially the TMO have no access to any commentary that is broadcast, so they must have that option if he insists on it. Plus isn't the TMO 10 sec behind anyway on the live feed so of course the commentators are goi...

I do think when it comes to signings there’s an underlying level of frustration and people are losing patience of another year of not competing at the top level. I accept some of this is outside the club’s control - but if you look at the last 4 years. 20/21 season - transition year because of Covi...

We also had rumours of De Bruin and Eloff at prop. From memory especially, Eloff was linked around the same time/same story as Perese. I suspect one more back row or back row/lock hybrid depending on the future of Cracknell, Rogerson and Carter. Perhaps the much discussed second centre too. Then ma...

Understandable as wasn't he also here for the year to help bed in Dan as the coach so there was someone Dan could rely on to follow and explain his way and style etc and help gel with the lads and get things across, and now hes in and its time to move on

Kata hasn't played 13, Kelly has started to look good at 13 outside of Kata. I should stick with that combo Cokanasiga has had a good cameo's at 12 and clearly more a 12 than 13. But I wouldn't pair him with someone who hasn't played at 13 at all. I feel if Cokanasiga starts at 12 he will need Scot...

Wished they had nailed down on 5 for Hanro.

You dont know the conditions on people births, for example, my brother was born in Singapore so makes him Singaporean, but due to being with the British army, documents had to be signed to establish him as British other wise he would be called into national service and would have to go back to a cou...

Confirmed Sir Kev to Quins.

I see Kevin Sinfield is on the Harlequins shortlist to replace Jerry Flannery Yeah Flannery off to join the Boks. Sinfield's defence could suit Quins who are playing a more aggressive strategy already this season. Certainly at Tigers the Borthwick/Sinfield tactics put jacklers into positions to be ...

All this speculation that Porter is no longer England material, he was in the World cup squad list until he got injured.

How many more times? We kick less than others.

We may well kick less, but when we do its either in the wrong situation and or in desperation.

I have absolutely no grounds for this whatsoever, no rumour, no hearsay, nothing at all, not even a mate of my third cousin talking to a taxi driver who who had the player's uncle's mate in the cab, but there is just a thought nagging at the back of my mind that Handre may leave us at the end of th...
