Reading the latest news on it it says the game will only go ahead if players with sufficient testing history can be found... reckon that meams they need players who have been in a bubble, so basically reckon they'll be having people from the England training squad who aren't going make the final team, as where else will they find bubbled players from.
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Apparently 12 players involved.....
Brain-dead, crass stupidity on their part , and that is being kind to them.
Seemingly heading rapidly toward senility .....Not long or far to go now , in fact, getting worse daily.....

Have seen Nadolo has offered his services to the Baa baas, as have Bristol Bears who were also preparing for a game.

🤞🤞 that alternatives can be found.

Hearing it's Tom de Glanville on the grapevine too, the Baabaas will release the names when they think it's right.

You couldn't make it up!

These are supposed to be intelligent people. What don't they understand about the need to quarantine in order to stop the spread of the virus? :smt009

Seems like several Saracens players assuming the rules don't apply to them, surprising isn't it?

They really are the gift that keeps on giving, aren't they?

I mean, I try not to pigeon hole people. I really do. I try not to think of them all as cheating, arrogant, selfish chuffing idiots.

But they make it sooo easy!!!
In my defence, I was left unsupervised….
