It will be interesting to see who gets a Lions invite. I suspect Steward will.
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.

Not for me,not if he’s not playing. Will be Keenan and Kinghorne for me and then a hybrid back 3 player to cover FB/wing.(I don’t class Steward as an international winger even though he’s played there)

Does Ignacio Brex fancy a couple of years in the East Midlands, I wonder?

You can be one of the teams best players consistently for a number of years including in the current 6 nations and just because Steve wants to signal a change of intent you get made a scapegoat instead of simply being asked to play a different style and use your attacking skills more.

I hope Freddie has already kicked down the door to Steve's office and demanded to know why he, of all players, has been treated this way
How do you know Freddie was not asked by SB to show a more attacking side to his game, he seemed to me to try to run ball back more in his last couple of games? Maybe SB decided he could not do what he wanted from him and then went for Furbank? We will never know!

My feeling about Tommie today was that he had a quieter game than normal, Wales were going to get the wooden spoon anyway, so was he saving himself from getting injured so as to be available for us next week, we need our strongest team next week after last nights tragic result.? By the way, Wales were very poor.

Borthwick is ruthless and this just provides further confirmation

With Ireland being crowned champions already I really hope none of our lads get injured!

EDIT: only other cherry on top would be to win by a big enough margin that Italy leapfrog France but I don't see that happening...

Gatland offered to resign. Wales CEO said not a chance. Is that because there's nobody else mad enough to take the job on with the state that Welsh rugby is in? (Slightly tongue in cheek)

Imagine the French producers will be happy to show that footage again just in case

Well Tuilagi not Steward on the bench looks a bad decision now...
