Things may change, but different situations need to treated with different degrees of sensitivity. This is very true and an incredibly important point. The people to make those decisions should be appropriately trained counsellors and medical professionals - not Fox News, angry YouTubers or forum n...

I wonder what percentage of trans women have assaulted women in women's bathrooms? I also wonder what percentage of men assault women in women's bathrooms? (and by all accounts, a significant number of such incidents go unreported) The fact that nobody seems in any way interested in what those perce...

During COVID I got a short term gig working in a call centre (f**king awful). Anyway, it was a roasting hot day and one of the young lads started messing with the AC, and another fella suggested he turn it up to 11. Naturally I started to laugh and mentioned that it was on TV last week. Blank looks!...

Kennedy is such a slime bucket, defending his anti vaccine shit before the senate committee. Even some of the GOP senators clearly have had enough of his shit. What a disgrace he is to his father and uncle. The apple fell very far from the tree with him. In terms of intelligence, certainly, not so ...

Welsh fans won't travel 7 or 8 minutes to go to a game, so I don't know why you are so hot and bothered about it?

Extremely sad. RIP. And extremely sobering to consider that he'd likely be alive today if he never played Rugby. Our sport could be one court case away from ceasing to exist. But MMA, NRL and boxing will go on? Rugby is a net positive to society - It'd be akin to giving up cars as transportation so...

The issue with the Trump regime is that no one is calling the shots. Everyone is solo-running because there is no coherent policy agenda for the administration, and no accountability as long as people massage Trump's ego enough with flattery and performative acts of loyalty. Students of history wil...

Are Santa Clara in the top Portuguese division? I watched the Shels match last night. My first thought was that they really should make it an all island league. I think it would really strengthen the teams and improve the quality leaps and bounds. They should but the game here (at least in the ROI)...

My big concern against drones in the modern warfare landscape is a lack of adequate airfield protection, as so brutally exposed by the Ukrainians two months ago. Gun system SHORAD and active protection on armoured vehicles will make anti-vehicular and anti-personnel drones less effective down the r...

side note - who do we think has a better chance of winning the 2027 world cup - Ireland or Australia ? i'd pick Aus

Says the guy who was adamant that every Munster hooker known to man was going to supplant Rory Best in the near future between 2009 and 2019.

not my choice, but i can sort of see why

Russell was the sponsor's (Howden) Player of the Tour. Beirne was the official Player of the Series.

F-ck me. You c-nts just don't stop, do you? You can't believe the shit you talk yourself. Disgraceful. What? You think there was something in Porter tugging on Skelton's jersey but nothing in Skelton targeting Furlong after the whistle? And nothing in a player making head contact while being high t...

PornDog

That's fairly innocuous from Porter. Shouldn't have put hands on Skelton but he was hardly being aggressive. I suppose with all the niggle before, the ref had to make a point. Skelton obviously wasn't up to any shenanigans, but with all the niggle going on you can understand how Porter thought he m...

Political: Thailand’s repugnant political class welcomes a distraction from what pricks they are. I suspect internal Thai politics is at the root of all of this and is much much deeper than just distraction. Taksin Shinawattra and the whole red vs yellows divide is very much rolled up into this.

Are you counting his Lions games as 'internationals'? I thought he only started the once for Ireland there and that wasn't a particular success either.

Am I right to be outraged if Jac Morgan doesn't even make the squad for the first test? Or, am I simply being one-eyed about this, which is very possible. Outraged is maybe a bit much, it is very tight after all. I would have him in my team, as I'm sure plenty of others would too. Curry on the othe...

Strange it doesn't translate to the Champions cup which is a level down. :?: You're going to have to explain yourself here - I haven't the foggiest idea what point it is you are trying to make!

Anyone that has seen or read (and understood) Moneyball would understand that missed tackles is a poor metric to judge player performance. I believe in the 6 Nations just gone Ireland had the highest number of missed tackles. We also allowed the fewest gainline successes. So we missed lots of tackl...

Can't say I understand people putting Curry in their test squad - he's been comfortably the worst performing backrow on tour. Prediction. Heard how Faz speaks about Curry?

Hansen has been outstanding tonight. The problem though is the standard of opposition here, impossible to read anything into anything we're seeing tonight as the opposition is so disjointed.
