Sheffler makes this look so easy as he explains two of his shots he used at the Masters. 10 & 13

Re: **OFFICIAL** English Rugby Thread

A good watch. Quins cut the lead to 1 and had 7 left on YC then fell asleep kicking their exit for a charge down try gathered by Quirke. Self inflicted wound that.

Edit
And another shorthanded try scored by Sale.

I suspect top of the target list will be Bandar Abbas, the Iranian primary naval base and missile site.
