This is how oval insights have the top 4 race...

Wonder if those numbers were based on Russell being injured for Bath or not...

Worth pointing out that Saints have not beaten us in a league match at Franklin's Gardens since before the pandemic. In fact I think every visit since the pandemic has coincided with their annual fire drill... There is a different sort of pressure on them as table toppers at home to "finally&qu...

What’s next for Pellegrini? “I’m under contract at Cov for the next season. I do have a clause to get out if other clubs are interested, but for next year I will be here.” https://www.rugbypass.com/news/patrick-pellegrini-all-these-fans-going-nuts-is-a-great-memory-tonga-coventry/ Looking at this a...

I'd be delighted with 3rd this season and shake DM by the hand, however if we finish 8th below 6th............ The difference between 3rd-8th is one win (with a TBP) What is so vital between 6th and 8th that makes it so bad, it is likely to be one single match result swing because of how tight the ...

Anyway on to rumours Patrick Pellegrini wouldn't be a bad shout for a Pollard back up IMO. TBH not a name I’m that familiar with. A Tongan international playing for Coventry at the moment? https://www.smh.com.au/sport/rugby-union/tonga-bench-bolters-epic-chip-and-chase-try-20231002-p5e92l.html Scor...

I am somewhat bored with this argument as we have had it for every coach since Cockers. Coaches know what they are getting into when they sign their contracts they will never ever inherit anything but the status quo. At the end of the day its all about expectation and I believe you can judge a Head...

Almost is not quite Zero, I'm guessing though it's too thin to share publicly what you have heard then

Let's put it this way. There are three states for a coach to be in: 1) Going so badly a change is needed immediately. 2) Going so well that you are actively trying to extend their contract. 3) Going middling, and nether looking to change nor extend. McKeller has two years left on his initial contra...

De Bruin has signed for Newcastle, can tick him off the list of potential signings https://twitter.com/FalconsRugby/status/1779796857100636562?t=sSNLuFkjkSidIFLJoVoUsA&s=19 Good signing for them. He was good for us, think he's a very Steve Diamond type player, and fits with their ethos of small...

Wonder if Yeandle may be facing a ban for our game against them?

This is roughly depth chart as I'm expecting it next season brackets mean they cover here but primarily play elsewhere. LH: Smith, Cronin, Whitcombe, Van Der Flier HK: Montoya, Clare, Vanes, Theobald-Thomas TH: Heyes, Cole, Hurd, New Signing (probably, possibly also cover LH also based on rumours) ...
