Re: George Fords Departure - Why ?

He's not leaving for financial or rugby reasons imho. I wonder if Manu will be delighted to welcome him as a teammate again?

Re: Club captain

Back in 2019, our former CEO asked me who I thought the next captain should be. He was surprised at my answer and replied "He'll need to mature a bit first". I guess he's done exactly that! It's a great choice! I think that says more about said former CEO. You're right - it was an astute ...

Let's hope OTY now has a successful and stress-free final season as a player before taking up farming duties!

Re: Lions 2021

Nothing is definite - it's all a matter of opinion / judgment. I'm simply saying that, in my opinion, he wasn't competing for the ball - in which case I guess he was concerned more with the tackle. The duty of care (and the laws of the game) require him to ensure he does not tackle a player in the a...

Re: Lions 2021

Still disagree,i understand duty of care in making sure your opponent lands OK but I honestly believe Kolbe didn't see him until the last millisecond. Some one made a crazy point yesterday about you've still got eyes and they see everything, something along those lines,but they don't! You try it,lo...

Re: Lions 2021

Devils advocate,how is oompah loompah racist? So say for example it’s a female commentator (we have seen it many times in clubs,pubs etc where a lady is caked in orange foundation) and he called her a oompah lumpah. Is that a sackable offence too or have the PC brigade been on the case again? I fai...

Re: Lions 2021

I rather think Cowan-Dickie is making a habit of throwing himself front-on at the ball carriers legs. Knees don't bend that way so what he's doing is simply dangerous. For me, that's not a 'low tackle' - it's a cynical attempt to stop an opponent which risks serious injury.
