1960's would have been 100 yards

That Kata lad was playing well, it was unfortunate. Exactly this! He gives his all every game, the tackle was, in my opinion, unfortunate, in as much the Northampton player was somewhat below upright, had he remained in an upright position Kata's tackle would have been around the ribs! Split second...

I cannot think of any club above Tigers that have gone through so much change or disruptions in the last few years. Other clubs have coaches who have been in place and had time with the players. Losing half your coaches mid season was not great. It is going to take time and a World Cup season was a...

Given the disparity in available players the result didn't surprise me. I'm happy to give McKellar time, I think the whole attack coach fiasco is a poor reflection on the club management, feels like he's been dealt a bum hand! What a massive excuse that is - do you really think he wasn’t given the ...

Very good, I well remember the LV Cup final at Worcester they were all off like scalded cats with 20 mins left!

I think Carnduff is a 6. Hanro is 6'6, and Finn is 6'4, so he is shorter than Hanro, however he does weigh the same as Hanro. A a result, I think he is perfectly suited for the back row. Plus being shorter means he is better suited for a turnover as we saw at Newcastle. I think someone else already...

No need for that sort of language round here...

I take your point but at that stage I doubt the plan included 3 different head coaches in 3 years, for whatever the reason. That fact alone means Mckellar needs patience and time He may need patience and time, but is he earning that? I’m not convinced he knows what he is doing…. What makes you say ...

Guys like Rogerson and Cracknell are critical to our success. You can't have a squad entirely made up by youngsters and superstars, it just doesn't work. Some people might call them journeymen, but I'd call them absolute grafters - imagine the physical toll of Prem rugby without the acclaim or huge...

Once seen never unseen

I'd sooner have Cracknell and Rogerson than a lot of previous players #nonamesnopackdrill

In the seventies I was interested in Debbie Harry but it didn’t come to anything

If you're still interested in her in her seventies then questions may be asked

On the subject of Freddie, we can't have it both ways. We can't moan about the attack being dull or not good enough, and then then moan about the solution to that problem is by bringing in Shillcock. Currently with Freddie at FB, we are probably defensively stronger, yet probably weaker in attack. ...

Are you suggesting that a move to 12 from the wing isn’t that dramatic? Maybe you could name others that have made that move I'll go with George North.... Think you’ll find he had 13 on his back. I said 12 they are different positions and not many can cover both ...and I said centre.... unless 12 i...
