Leinster can't stop cheating. Murray clearly tackled Larmour to the ground then released and rolled away to get back in the line. It's not like he tripped Larmour and didn't bring him to ground. Attacker and defender hit the ground together in the tackle, and then the attacker got back up without re...

Reiko has played 20 + matches in the midfield, nearly a whole Super comp, some of them pretty decent and the odd crap one, and posters complain about him playing centre. Yet, we're expected to jump on board the JB's fanbois wish for him to play midfield because he played U20s there and 1 or more ga...

Do people realise Laumape is 5’9 and 95kg? He’s a better option than J.Barrett, but he’s not striking fear into Test teams. I agree that he's not the dominant physical pressence that Canes-twats like to make out. He's around 10 cm shorter and 12kg lighter than Ma'a Nonu, yet they expect him to ply ...

Please pick Jordie at 12. Please. Just gonna throw this out there.. It's no secret that Razor attempted to lure J.Barrett away from the Hurricanes in 2019 to pair with Goodhue in the midfield after R.Crotty left. My suggestion of moving Jordie to second-five for the All Blacks isn't so far-fetched....

How do you fit this with the rest of international games, the domestic leagues and the European Cup?

6N already takes 7 weeks, which is the perfect length for an 8 team comp.

It already goes for 7 weekends, they just have two weekends off through the middle.

Always used to love going to Wales for games. Went to every Munster and Ireland game in Wales from 2005ish to 2011. Gotta love the Welsh publicans who didn't mind 15yo having pints with his father and uncles etc.

NZ coaches clearly want the better passer/playmaker at 13, rather than 12. Goodhue is not a great passer, while ALB is a very good distributor in general. Hence the desire to invert their natural positions. I don't agree with it or like it, but thats what I think they are doing. Laumape doesn't hav...

Timezones shouldn't be a problem anymore
Games get repeated and one can watch whenever

Advertising only worth anything for live games when people are watching. Replays are near worthless commercially.

The best best long term for the Jaguares, outside a fully professional South American League, would be to play in the Pro 18. The Celts have shown that they're desperate for teams and they'll include anyone who wants to play with them. Nah, they should have been part of MLR, really. It would have g...

I don't like the permanent nature of the deal - I feel we are under-selling ourselves when you think this will still be going in 50 years. Are we that broke? In theory they leverage the brand to make it more profitable. They see channels of growth for the brand that eclipse the investment they have...

Totally unnecessary, too. 6-0 and in on goal and he dove. I hate that plum.

You’ll never quick cook scrambled eggs again. https://www.waitrose.com/content/waitrose/en/home/recipes/recipe_directory/h/heston_s_scrambledegg.html Similar-ish to the Ramsay link I posted above. The trick being taking time to heat through. Scrambled really are a most fantastic way to eat eggs whe...

F#ck me! Southampton are strange. They're sort of pretty but there's definitely something soft about them. They don't stroke the ball around at pace at all. They look like a team that should struggle when you play them though obviously their results have been there for all to see. But two 9-0's in ...

Really depends who goes to SA. I'd like to see Swepson, Abbott, and Henriques go to NZ and actually play cricket. I'd make Henriques captain and sack off Finch, who looks absolutely cooked at the moment. I also wouldn't trust Stoinis and Maxwell to be that 5th bowler between them. Could be a very ex...

Unions like Ireland aren't going to give up the chance to go to the likes of NZ in 22. Well I would be astonished if they would. My bet is the 6N gets played when the Lions was supposed to, and SA just miss out. The SARU won't be happy. They arrogantly forfeited this year's Rugby Championship based...

Sunlight degrades whisky, you know nothing fool. Also, a bottle in a box is insulated from extreme evaporation. Both are concerns when you drink good stuff. I'd expect anybody who ever proclaimed to be in a FLS to know these things. Should have been called the 'NMS' for "New Money Society', you f u ...

Woke up this morning to read "PSG-Istanbul game postponed due to racism" and immediately thought "What did those Turks say now?"

Did anybody predict it would be racist refs?

Do others see something in Nick Tompkins that I don't?

Thats hardly a bad Argie side. The back 3 are excellent, as is De La Fuente at 12.

The only guys I'm not immediately familiar with are Mallia, Medrano, and Paulos.

Boo! :thumbdown: Is a Galaxy note 10.1 any use for internet/streaming? They're going fairly cheap, but the specs are inferior to my phone, which itself is over 3 years old, so I'm a bit cautious.

I can understand how people might want to limit the qualifying standards to parents only, but there are so many families where grandparents form a core role in raising children that their national identity could easily be influenced by them. I've met lots and lots of "Irish" people born and raised i...

For the record, as somebody who visited and doesn't know Dublin well on the same trip, we didn't rate the food in Dublin as particularly good either.

I've had rotten luck tracking down some of those wines recently Frankster. Couldn't find the Malbec from your Five Festive Flagons list in (an admittedlly small) Dunnes today. No sign of the Peter Lehman Shiraz in the local Molloys last week either. The staff member said he hadn't seen it in ages. ...
