David’s an excellent signing. They’ve almost got the depth in back 3 as us!

Re: 6 NATIONS 2021

For what is worth Teague, Richards & Winterbottom for me...never ever Dayglo... One hell of a back row! On a par with Rives, Skrela and Bastiat!! ... Reminds me of drinking with Christian in Aber. One Welsh chap got a bit peed up and told Christian he knew nothing about rugby. "Who's the b...

Re: Championship rugby

Whilst I have always kept an eye on Nottingham as a club, I have “followed” Ealing for the last 5 years or so - in the early days it was simply because I knew someone quite high up in the Club. Since they have become more successful on the back of major investment, my interest has grown proportiona...

Re: South African Tigers

One thing you can say about South African players is that they all give 100% every time they take the pitch which you can’t say about all players I’d question that having watched Sale a few times. I’m not sure they’ll finish top 4. Loading your team with imports on cold, wet, windy Friday nights do...

We had that conversation at home during the game. The conclusion was that it looked bad but as it didn’t cut up during the match, it looked worse than it actually was.

You clearly didn’t see it or hear the conversation between ref and TMO.

Re: Gloucester away Sat 13th March

Clearly an accident but he never makes an effort to lower his height and rushes in. A lot of refs wouldn't reach for the red card there and a year ago it might not have been a penalty. Currently if you make contact with the head and you're upright you could be in serious trouble, if you haven't wra...

Re: Next up London Irish - home - 5th March 2021

Scott and Moroni are a good partnership and lead our D line well together Agreed - they’re harrying quite well in the defensive line and besides the first try the midfield defence has been fairly strong. yet some on here seem desperate to replace Scott ... Wouldn’t go that far but if we are to prog...

Re: Next up London Irish - home - 5th March 2021

Regardless of how confident we ought to be, the fact is that Irish are a team in good form with some very good players. Their league position belies that form at the moment. They need to be respected without doubt. I think the inference from Scott’s post was that it’s ONLY Irish, which is dangerous...

Re: Has Rugby Got a Refereeing Problem?

What i am talking about however, is the obvious error or the howler....That to me is the type of refereeing that is on the rise and occurring more frequently, and it is that kind of thing that lead me to ask the question, about does rugby have a refereeing problem. I think you are wrong on a couple...

Re: Has Rugby Got a Refereeing Problem?

Were you on a keyboard during Wales v England on Saturday? Only during breaks in play Wonder no more. Anyone typing during a break into play might've missed the first Wales try on Saturday. No matter as there were plenty of replays. That wasn’t a proper break in play. It only lasted long enough to ...

I agree with both of you regarding Poite, but I was trying to resist condemning French officials across the board! What I really believe is, the French should stick to playing!
