Re: Tigers v Newcastle (A) - Premiership - Friday 29th March 2024 - KO: 19-45

https://www.rugbypass.com/news/diamond-demands-law-change-while-accusing-tigers-of-illegal-activity/ I see Mr Diamond is trying to suggest things to the referee already... If you can't coach a team to defend the rolling maul, why not just get the ref to ping them on it... At least we know what's wo...

Re: Tigers v Gloucester - Premiership Cup Final - Friday 15th March 2024 - KO:7-45pm

They are missing a few as well, but I agree about props hopefully Hurd is fit as I can’t see England releasing Heyes. Back row will be key too as their first choice will be available. Depending on fitness I would go Brown Bassett Scott Kelly OHC Shilcock Whitely Whitcombe Clare Hurd Wells Carter Li...

Re: Trailfinders a sad indictment of rugby

We have already seen a version of the Franchise model in the women's game,.
Clubs have to apply to be in the PWR winning the Championship play off did not guarantee Cheltenham Ladies a place in PWR.

Re: How to end kick tennis

In fact there have been some tries where players well in front of the kicker have been put on side by a touched in flight. I think Harry Wells scored one off the back of something like that I do remember one this season where one of our players was actively retreating and caught a touched in flight...

If the poster on X was an existing season ticket holder at the time did they get a 10% discount on the early bird price ?

Re: Trailfinders a sad indictment of rugby

Newcastle could be currently held up as an example, would they win a playoff against Ealing or any other Championship side who comes top? What is wrong is that false restrictions prevents competition for them to try. We don't want another London Welsh, but to deny a winner from taking their place i...

Re: Ealing PRC game info

"Let’s remember that this current extended break has been caused by there being 6 fixtures less this season, nothing else. The 5/6 nations championship has been played at this time of year for as long as I can remember" Surely there is a need to condense the 6 nations to 5 consecutive week...

Re: How to end kick tennis

Tactical kicking has always been a part of the game and should be. The problem has been pointed out is that players in front of the kicker are allowed to stand still until put onside by the receiver running 5 metres forward. One way to deal with the problem would be to say that any player in front o...

Re: Ealing PRC game info

There weren’t really any contentious decisions. Other than their yellow card was the TMO used at all, and that was a good spot by the officials I'm sorry but if you looked at most of the scrums Ealing's looseheads were boring in and on at least 2 occasions ended up at 90 degrees to the centre line ...

Re: Warriors on the way back??

I know that you need in excess of 10,000 capacity to be a premiership club ground but I am assuming that the rules were relaxed for the PRC to allow the involvement of the Championship. Does reek a bit of double standards I suppose. Could this also be linked to any requirement for European games as...

Re: Warriors on the way back??

Does anyone else wonder why Ealing's ground is not suitable for premiership rugby but can host a PRC semi-final?
