Re: The Official Scottish Rugby Thread

Matt Smith has retired. No injury, just says he no longer enjoys it and found it a chore to get up for training. Real shame, I liked him as a player, best of luck to the guy. Sad to see a guy his age lose his passion for the game. I know there's a fair difference between playing professionally and ...

BBQs in the carpark for a winter game in Scotland is bold :lol: . I agree there's no significant grudge between teams because people are Scotland rugby fans before they are club rugby fans.

Callus Gibbons leaving the weegies. Starting to look a bit light in the backrow? Their whole squad is starting to look a bit on the thin side, isn't it?

Re: Actors you used to hate/not rate at all, but now do rate

I used to hate Gene Hackman until I saw The Royal Tenenbaums. No idea why, think it was because I'd only seen him in shit like Bat 21 and somehow I'd completely missed stuff like The French Connection. I did enjoy him in Unforgiven, but you're meant to hate him in that.
