Interesting article in the Telegraph about George Martin. He says he like to "hit hard". Courtney Lawes says, that's great but you are getting hit hard as well. George has only started 5 times for us this season. The part that really interested me was that he chose to go outside the club, ...

Does anyone still get birthday/Xmas cards? I haven't had one for a couple of years now.

I followed Deano's method Deano's warm up may be similar to that of the Munster and Ireland legend Moss Keane: "It's said that Moss Keane was sitting in the changing room at Lansdowne Road lighting up, whereupon the trainer came in and told him to get on to the pitch for a warm-up. “. off,” wa...

You don't need an intense 1 hour warm up before a match. Stretch, warm up, run through a few drills to get the handling right for the conditions. We have reverted to the Cockers era of an excessive warm up and making it a 2 hour 40 minute match. Yes I was the one saying about our warm ups, we seem ...

BBC article from McKellar

OK. Fine words and a tangible promise: We won't be 8th next season. And if we are, or worse?

Also note, inside the ground it is card only, no cash.

On the other hand, the caterpillar may tie in a lot of players?

Injury, bootlace undone or dodgy contact lens at the line-out, yes.

No re-scrum from free-kick? I agree with Samhorace.

Protection of the 9 should be extended to the ridiculous amount of harassing that some are getting at the scrum.

If we really want to win, rather than just try things out...

I've only seen the clip of Kinder's try, but by all accounts he was excellent against a decent senior professional side. Give him a go, what's the worst that can happen? Do you have a link to the clip? Not sure if this will work... https://www.instagram.com/reel/C6hKbe9Mc1x/?igsh=dzNpNmtrY3E2NnFj I...

Perhaps 8th place is a more realistic appraisal of where our performances deserve. We did OK during the World Cup but since then we have slowly gone backwards, in spite of the return of Cole, Martin, Montoja, Kata, Pollard and Wiese. Even with the 6N it's surely long enough for the team to gel. Why...

I believe her marital name would be Easterby but chosen surname is to honour her legendary father

Marbles?

Was her father not real then?

That thing with Sara Elgin, I struggled to hear her reply. He said why is it Saaara not Sara and she said...?

Kinder was eggcellent…..

I assume this was the verdict of Kinder's scout?

It wasn’t in my eyes a pre season.
Thanks Ben for what you’ve done and will do for us.
And great to see Tom on the Crumbie v Bristol.

Agree with all of that, and it's a pity Tom's team can't catch.
