I’ll confess to not knowing the ins and outs but I’m sure the WRU made a loss in 2019 and a £2m profit in 2018. Doesn’t sound greedy to me. Now competence is a different matter but it’s not like even disgustingly large senior salaries can hide the fact that there’s not a huge surplus of money swash...

Good stuff any plans for more?

no, other than the prison one. next years plans are for the "Oner", A Frog Graham round and the Deca-Ironman

Tailgaters in 30mph zones. Typically when I'm in the right hand lane of a dual carriageway because I've got to be to get my correct turn, and I won't go over 30 (fed up with points and fines) and a tailgater will flash me, then overtake on the inside doing 40.

Just binge watched both series of Titans. Didn't expect to get hooked as I only started it as there was nothing else I fancied watching (didn't fancy starting something new to me of many series) but I did get hooked.

My heart always sinks a bit seeing Dunn in the squad, he's just a decent Prem player imo. Then I remember that outside George and LCD, there really aren't any standout English hookers, which is a bloody travesty. Only 2 hookers so Dunn will see game time. Think you are being a bit harsh, he has loo...

People who accummulate in groups at the end of escalators for a chat, making everyone shuffle around to get past them. (They also block the aisles in shops in groups, if they can't find an escalator). Escalator crowds are a perfect opportunity to launch yourself through them like a missile . Just p...

DragsterDriver wrote:Eddie is being deliberately antagonistic toward the press and the fans. Simple as that, expect him to triple down next week. Ewels to 8 with Earl on the pitch is just that.

Towards the press yes, but only in interviews. I think he is genuinely doing what he thinks is best.

Definitely feeling like England got away with another crap selection by out enthusing their opposition (who totally shat the bed). With a decent 9, 12,8 and a back 3 made up of back 3 players we should have seen a score like in the RWC warm up. At the minute players like Ford and Joseph are playing...

Ireland looking really poor today. Farrell was anonymous today other than when humping Standers leg. Daly is still a 23 at best and Ewels at 8 WTF?

FFS the Irish player was going for the kick block and actually pulled back. Refs got that one right. Some of the spears into rucks from all angles were far worse.

Final try down to Ford. :lol: There 4 minutes of play in between, what a silly comment. Ford should have kicked the ball down the field, which he well knows. And there were 4 minutes of what ifs between that and the try. Not when he had the ball in his hands and did a headless chicken routine, prec...

13. Nick Tompkins – A mixed bag of a performance. Defensive frailties showed up again, with numerous doglegs created between him and those inside and outside of him. On the plus side, attacked extremely well, and worked his bollocks off all game. 6/10 TBF he is probably used to the Sarries defensiv...

Yeah, this probably isn't the best one to be dipping your toe back in the water with. There is no greater indicator of the uncertainty under Eddie than that we beat NZ comfortably and surrendered a home lead of 31-7 to Scotland less than a year apart.

I'm always amazed when I start my now 2 decade old routine of starting to run, getting quite good, then leaving it for a few months to get f**ked again, how quickly the improvement is at the start.

While we wait for the full story from our ex-councillor, does anyone have any exciting Clifton bridge facts or news? There were Daleks spotted on it late last year.

Using World Rugby's figure of 1900 Rugby clubs in England that would mean an average of 88 adult male players at each club

2nd on the table but only 4 championships and 2 grand slams. We can thank France for all those chokes in the noughties.

Englands record is similar on the champs front. Very consistent at finishing second though

No. Ireland are a far more settled side having won 2 games and England still have some strange picks going on.
