Re: Scheffler
There is no question he is the best golfer in the world, however the guy needs to find a personality. Guys like Homa, Rahm, De Chambeau, Morikawa, McIlroy, Woods & even Tyrell Hatton show their emotion, whereas this dull guy simply walks unsmiling around the course. Some will suggest he is simply "...

Re: **OFFICIAL** English Rugby Thread
3 quarter finalists is a pretty good return. Does feel like English rugby is moving ahead at last. Some of the Irish players have informed us how bad all the teams are. We are doomed 3 English 3 French 1 Irish 1 SA I'll take that - even if Exeter and Quins are odds on to get well beaten in the next...

Re: The OFFICIAL English and European Football (soccer) thread
Thought the ref spoiled the game yesterday. Arsenal committed 20 fouls and didn't receive one yellow. In the first half alone there were at least 3 clear bookings that went unpunished. If reffed properly, the game would have been more open. Arseanl fouled with impunity, which created a very dull sp...

I seem to recall that Irish trainers get some sort of tax break which makes the playing field somewhat slanted. Is that right?

If Scotland and Ireland can continue to poach players from the likes of England, NZ and SA then they will continue to do well. They have poached far more effectively than Wales and the results speak for themselves.

Or, they are all wearing human looking skin suit...

Re: **OFFICIAL** English Rugby Thread
Difference for England yesterday was our pace. Pace to get ball away from breakdown, pace to pressurise in defence, pace of our backs and the search for outside space. We can improve enormously but this is the way to go.
