Re: URC 2023/24 General match thread
The Lions need to win some games. They're comfortably stuck in the 11th spot, 14 points ahead of Cardiff and it's frustrating

Re: What makes the current Ireland squad so good?
They're old (experienced?). Only four players under 25, 16 players 30 and older, only 12 players with less than 20 caps in the squad.
Almost like the Boks - 10 players with less than 20 caps, 24 player 30 and over. two players under 25

Re: Law changes - Scrums from Free kicks goooone
Didn't follow the thread but there's only one freekick given at a scrum, then it becomes penalties. So it's not that easy to manipulate this as some make it out to be
