That sounds like a shocking crash and terrible injuries. Best of luck to the lad but coming back from that is going to be tough.

He’s not a dirty cûnt he’s a hot head in the wrong era. Needed to be duking it out with Grewcock and Julian White. Bad move going back to Bristol. I can't imagine that would end well for Genge. Gym monkey against proper hard nuts. He’d have had a go :) No doubt, because he probably can't help himse...

In my Family's case, very well with many going on to have successful careers in business, the civil service and the the judiciary. If you deserted your post , as a serving Irish soldier to head north of the border and join the British army, you faced terrible consequences on your return including, ...

Thousands of Irishmen did fight in order to preserve their countries freedom and their way o life. Sadly for them they had to do it in British uniforms How were they treated when they went back to Ireland , we can all argue over the contributions of the allied nations, however I do not think there ...

Oki when you want to talk seriously about history - give me a call Re - to the one pointing out Italians We were so farked up yet the Regia Marina was able to cornering out the Royal Navy in the Mediterranean - where we established superiority from end of 1941 until mid-end 1942.

The French surrendered after 6 weeks fighting for their own home country. How long would you give them fighting for someone else's? This 100% The French AND the British forces surrendered after 6 weeks of combat, gentlemen. One should remember also that the German army was never matched in combat e...

What’s your take on this... I was in a four ball earlier, got caught up by a two after a short par 3, and let them play through on the tee for the par 4 we were on. By the time they were clear, the next two behind had caught up and asked (not politely) to be allowed through too. I explained that we...

I don't know where you are based but we used a company called Achieve Living Design based in Northampton. My wife randomly found them on the internet and they were about 30% cheaper for a solid oak kitchen and Siemens/Neff appliances than anything we could find in Edinburgh. Their design service, cu...

I found the lack of detail regarding the climbs disappointing and annoying… I understand and empathise with the desire to present Sherpa achievement to the world but I think they missed the bus on that with this film. They’ve tried to cover too much ground in one hit, ironically. A series would hav...

The root of all of these stories is that we refuse to pay enough taxes to ensure robust and highly-regulated child protection services exist. In most countries the local body in charge of same will be notoriously harsh, arbitrary and generally regarded as criminally underfunded. This. But let's all...

Cannot agree with that BlacMack. That was easily the Wallabies worst performance of the year all around. On top of that we crossed the line several times in the first half to have the tries disallowed due to unnecessary penalties, of our own making I concede. We lost both of our tight heads for a g...

I don't often dip into the cesspit anymore but c'mon lads all this talk about being unlucky, bounce of the ball and the poor ref is nonsense. I appreciate you have some missing players but so do we and Australia were second best to Scotland in almost every area of the field bar your centers. That is...

Absolute legend of the game. Looked and played like he had been carved out of stone. RIP

Most of this is just social media driven hysteria. Whilst there has been the odd case it is not even close to the degree being suggested. I was a Detective Sergeant during the previous spiking hysteria when everyone was blaming Rohypnol. I must have investigated dozens of such claims and not one tu...

Getting pretty sick of the hysteria surrounding this guy Pen Farthing. Ex-marine who is refusing to leave until the government agree to fly out all the staff from his animal sanctuary, their families and even the bloody animals.

It's not like that though really is it, they are already all over Kabul, just a case of announcing their presence.

Track cycling rules are bizarre. If you slightly infringe the racing line it's instant dispualification, yet you can ride like an absolute clown and cause a huge crash and there are no repercussions.

Japan can only bet on 4 sports keirin is one of them. Geez the Oz team has had a shocker these games, one bronze on the track.

If you watched the coverage I just did, they only showed the last round which I thought she lost, but she won both of the first two rounds comfortably.

THe great thing is that it is only 3 years to the next Olympics. What an effort by Japan to put this on so well in such shit times.

Also that Jason Kenny Keirin win was outstanding. Totally reacted to everything he saw and went for it while the field was sleeping and seemed more concerned for each other. GB top the cycling table again. The reports of the demise of GB Cycling might be a tad premature. That's only because of all ...

Lauren Price bossed it in her gold medal final. Wales' finest won 14 of the 15 judging rounds. Excellent. Good to see GB boxing get a few golds in their record haul. Should mention Lauren Price was also a world kick boxing champion as well. She's one dangerous women. An international footballer too...

My country's feed was from South Africa, was there an angle showing whether there was cover had Williams given the pass or would it have been a walk in try? as they did not show any different angle / camera on the feed I saw. Rewatched it now and dont see another angle. Cant tell where Willie was. ...

Williams was nowhere near as bad as Hogg, the outside break was absolutely on but without context you can't say it's a nailed on try.

Russell is easily capable of world class but you have to accept the odd blunder. Me? I’d rather see him play and accept it rather than solid 7/10 robots playing dogshit percentage rugby. Yeah, without guys like him and likely Smith the game will die as a spectacle. As you say, enjoy it and accept t...

Think a lot of people are being harsh on the lions. Tried to play some rugby today, especially compared to Saffas who - let's be polite - played to their strengths. Coin flip at the end.

If only Liam Williams could pass or tackle No but wait, he was going to save us. He also only caught 1 out of 7 high balls in his two appearances.

Curry cost the Lions a probable 14 points. Absolute dog shit. Undroppable for some reason. He has been anonymous the whole series and an absolute penalty magnet.
