Re: Late train to Nottingham

I already drive to Welford Road. My main priority is watching the match, not having a beer. Why not both?! 1. Public transport times are rarely suitable for me, especially evening kick-offs. 2. I don't drink and drive. I seem to recall there was a contributor on this forum (I think he might have be...

Re: More needs to change than the Head Coach

Austin Healey adds another perspective on control of the game in the Telegraph: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/rugbyunion/international/england/11991885/England-will-go-on-underachieving-because-too-much-power-is-with-the-clubs.html And what a quote from the man! "I would much rather win the...

Why not ask the company that runs the service?

Re: Sam Burgess - returning to Australia - updated

Personally, I'll lose no sleep over Burgess heading back to joke scrums and no flankers. He was promised the moon on a stick but now, since the debacle that was England's RWC2015 campaign, he can't get out of the country fast enough. Is he willing to dog it out, learn the game, find his true positio...

Re: Injuries & Returns - What's the latest?

Whilst driving home yesterday after the match, I'm sure I heard Cockers say on the radio Slates and Kitch will be fit for Saturday's West Country teatime kickabout.

Please tell me I heard correctly.

Re: Nigel Owens set to referee World Cup final

...no help to France in this case but certainly would have helped Scotland vs Australia who defiantly got favourites 'rub of the green' with Joubert handed the aussies a game they did not deserve to win. As a matter of interest, I wonder if there would have been as much commotion and vitriol if the...
