Toby Booth to Harlequins. Did a fair job at Ospreys with one hand tied behind hs back and no money.
Would imagine he will come as a bit a shock to some of the underperfoming squad members

Considering the numbers I know it’ll be more. The accusation of racism has lost its power now Chubster 69. It’s been de powered by the lack,of thought from those making it. Today’s crowd for example will be very mixed race wise. You stat in your little bubble of ignorance Lots. https://x.com/TRobin...

Yes. That’s a shame from your organisation. However a bigger concentration of clubs with resource should be encouraged. I don't really disagree with that view. It's more the way it was it was "sold" to us little clubs. Our chairman was never told about Southend and Eton Manor being our league until...

In fairness , stortford, Southend are putting up a decent 2nds there so makes for fair competition. What amazing is the money being paid to support the squads. They may well be.

I bloody well wish!! Our county union decided to break away from our long standing tradional partners Middlesex and set up their own league to include 2nd teams from the senior club s in the county.

Start of the rugby season for most clubs today. Autumn's in the air and the grounds (at least here darn sarf) have had a welcome deluge of rain in the last week.

She's played it.

If it's established that she did lie about the second property being the primary residence, then she could well be fined and asked to pay back what she owes and she could be suspended but we all know there's not going to be an independent inquiry.

England have approach Bath for Blackett. Has there actually been an approach? Blackett only recently signes a contract extension.

We talking about the same guy who busted exactly zero tackles and made zero dominant tackles across tests 2 and 3? That guy? Conan was relatively anonymous all tour.

How many turnovers did he concede? None :thumbup: Great player. Shame he's a 7 like everyone else. Probably should have come on earlier for Curry who's had a great tour but looked in pieces Hopefully Sale won't rush him back after his operation, he looks like he could do with several months off

Nothing left in the tank and probably lasting damage.Cant keep going to the well. Curry is a raspberry powered by injections and the other pair are golden oldies. Quite Earl made more meters ball in hand in the 17 minutes he was on than any other player in the match bar Huw Jones How many turnovers...

That back row got licked yesterday, curry is a crock and beirne/conan old. 3 tests is too much, same with jgp. Not sure I agree they got licked but you certainly had the chance to start a fresh backrow with the same quality over players who had run themselves into the ground in the previous two tes...
