It's not great as yet from Starmer. If this was cricket he's walked out to the crease and dodged a few bouncers, but he hasn't yet scored into the 20s never mind posting a 50 or a telling century. It might be the best he could do when dealing with a feckless, corrupt delinquent. But good will come,...

Not deported, but slowly killed off until there are just enough to carry on doing the shitty jobs the rich won't do... Which they'll do, perhaps, with really low productivity. So maybe bring back whipping, maybe even lynching to support the rights of the elite? They'll need something to incentivise...

Mississippi’s biggest industry? The federal government…. This is how wealth redistribution works in the USA - money goes from the blue states to prop up the GOP voters.

It’s well reported that if the state of Mississippi was a country it would be considered a third world nation. Poor as dirt. Probably others, too. Per capita Mississippi is wealthier than most EU countries. It will over take German on that basis in the next 2 years on current projections. Wealthier...

It'd be a lot easier to kick if we more often presented a running threat. As is we've little to no running threat and the only decent chaser is Freeman.

The annoying thing about Freeman is that in Feyi Waboso's absence, he's the only winger who has looked the part. So if we shift him infield, it only moves the selection headache rather than resolves it. Lawrence and Marchant would be a nice centre pairing. They've both looked okay to decent at time...

If Townsend did go I'd hope England would be thinking about what role they could offer Toony.

Does spencer kick everything? They are asking the 9s to play like JVP. He's the primary distributor for Tigers, and kicks a high % of ball. And if he doesn't Pollard will.

In a purely academic sense (cuz I don't actually want nukes going off), I wonder what Trump's circle of cronies would think of Putin using nukes?

We're pretty much back to Andy Robinson territory, kicking away turnover ball, even when there's an overlap. Either there's an overriding coaching instruction or the players simply have no confidence they will not be dropped if they do play rugby, and we're just waiting for Feyi-Waboso to come back...

Gatland was money pissed up the wall, £500-600k per annum to lose every game. But there's money to pay off the old coach and hire him, money perhaps to pay off Fats and hire a new coach. And it's fine because it's covered by debt in the name of the men. And yes there's more revenue in football, but ...

I reckon we'd take Brex and Menoncello over what we have picked.

There's a decent chance Italy have the best centre pairing going. There are better players sure, but there aren't any obviously better pairings

Another way of looking at the USA as a power is not only are they the world's top military power, they spend more than the next 10 highest spending nations combined, and 8 of those nations are their allies, 9 if you now include Russia, or maybe 8 as you'd then be dropping out Ukraine 1 if you count...
