Re: The Official Welsh Rugby Thread
Ellis Jenkins retiring. Sad news... Super player, very smart and very unlucky to pick up that injury after an incredible performance for Wales that looked like the arrival as an international. I always thought he was slightly undersized for what would have been potentially years of heavy-duty inter...

Re: War in Ukraine...
Unpopular opinion, but I don't believe anyone in the West should be cheering for Chechnya to become headline news again Without the Russian thumb sitting on top of it, it's far likelier to become the next aspiring Islamic caliphate than a peaceful beacon of Western-style democracy It will always be...

Forest not happy with VAR I see...

Anyone else heard of Shane Lewis-Hughes to Scarlets? No but not surprising, heβs been way out of favour for unknown reasons, same for Owen lane and Iβd expect both to be gone, both more than good enough to be starters elsewhere.

I've heard a rumour they are all backrow players - Doc, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Basham, Sneezy and Dopey, with Rod Snow White being the new forwards coach. Quite feasible with Welsh rugby these days.

I'm actually very surprised to learn that the population ratio is that low. Good point about the advantages of defence over attack also. However, starting from here, victory for Russia requires little more than consolidation of the territory it's already taken whereas victory for Ukraine requires e...

Re: Banning smoking - does it make sense?
The UK already has one of the lowest smoking rates in the developed world, under 15% of people smoke, down from around 35% in 2000. That's considerably below the 20-40% range across most of the EU. The anti-smoking legislation passed during that time clearly had some effect. I would've preferred ha...

Re: The OFFICIAL English and European Football (soccer) thread
Granpa Question for you. I want you to be honestβ¦. If Liverpool had Haaland instead of Darwin, do you think they win the PL this season? Yes, probably. Also if they had Kane, Toney, Isak or Watkins. But I'd still want Nunez in the side... He's not a proper number 9. Diaz is playing in his position....
