Wood for me was disappointing in the AI's and a penalty machine of late..

+1

Look at what he has done with the 7s side - two finals in two years after we previously had never won a game ! wouldn't say he's got the most skilful dynamic players at his disposal. That's just plain wrong IMO. I would say Geordie is doing just fine & certainly has the right "rugby brain&q...

Rough start, was on the bench for Macalister. But things are back on track. Floody has started 9 out of 16 Top 14 games at fly half with only 1 appearance from the bench - McAlister has started the other 7 plus two starts at 12. Neither has started more than 3 games in a row.... Toulouse seem to be...

Okay, Tigers should win this, but you've only got to look at what OTY said in his interview for the Mercury to know that Tigers are going to try and bash their way to a win (nice own goal there by the way TB): "I don't think an open game suits our type of play. Looking back at the weekend (a 3...

If so, I wish him all the best. He's had some good moments in a Tigers shirt (so far) without really becoming a great player for us.

Probably this is the best outcome for both parties - provided Morris continues to develop and/or we can sign a big name fullback...

If it gives England a better chance of winning then why not? For example, next time Manu comes to the end of his contract. He's more important to England than Armitage and a better player so why shouldn't he be able to earn exponentially more playing for a Toulon or Racing Metro and still play for ...

Fixed that for you

Both Croft & Gibson are excellent players - we are lucky to have them both available this season - I hope we also have both of them playing at the club next year. For England (to divert towards the recent discussion on the Bath thread), I would have said Wood was our best backrower last season &...

Wasps have announced Varndell has signed for Bristol on a two year deal.... Varndell said: "I'm an ambitious person and I believe that Bristol Rugby - with the resources and vision that the Club has - matches my ambition. Yeah, right :smt016 There's no guarantee Bristol will be a Prem club nex...

Graham Kitchener has agreed a new contract now...good news indeed!! http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-union/30697406 Firmly cemented his starting place in the side for me - I look forward to Kitch & Slats being our lock pairing for many years... Now, lets get Brad Thorn signed up to play as co...

Some wishful thinking there.... Ford is a class act and despite scuffing that last conversion on the weekend will be the first choice FH for Bath for a long time. And not just because of his Dad. Priestland is likely to be the replacement for Henson - experienced FH cover able to fill in at fullbac...

If he is dropped from the England squad, Saints will be happy as he will be available for club games. If he is still available for England, Saints will be happy for him. All in all, Saints will be happy! He is clearly an inspirational captain, as he must have deliberately got sent off knowing his t...
