Full strength team, please, Borthers, including captain Genge!

Telusa Veianu, currently under contract with Stade Français until June 2023, is apparently being considered by Bristol to replace Charles Piutau.
Telusa is highly thought of at SF and is considered one of the best fullbacks in the Top14.

Borthers will surely pick his strongest side to go to Bristol, so captain Ellis Genge will undoubtedly be the first name on the team-sheet.

Enough of this Rhubarb..........there is another word for it but it gets censored. There's only one thing that goes with pork pie.......and that's another pork pie. Like there's only one thing you should put in a Remy.......and that's another Remy. Pork pie followed by a Rémy, and repeated until yo...

I come from a family of pork pie (and sausage) producers in St Helens ....yes I know RL territory.... and having tried all combinations, my favourite is salad cream, but not mayonnaise.

Pork pie with gravy!

Then I'm pleased that I only watched the 2nd half!

So Ellis Genge has signed for Bristol. Good for him! Players do change clubs from time to time for different reasons, so let's accept it and move on - as some other posters have rightly suggested. I've not seen this video about the move and nor do I want to, but it was possibly not a very diplomatic...

Good side, with squad rotation that's to be expected.

I expect a win!

More on the Harry Potter incident. Here's a video from the French website Rugbyrama. Listen right at the end when the commentator quips, "c'est normal qu'il a disparu, c'est Harry Potter"!! https://video.rugbyrama.fr/rugby/champions-cup/2021-2022/champions-cup-harry-potter-disparait-en-pl...
