Re: Athletics general thread
These non-traditional athletic items such as the 4x200 are unnecessary. Some of these records were set ages ago becsuse they are rarely run.
The current SA record for the M 200m hurdles bend at 22.6 for instance was set in 1967 and the WR was set in 1959!

Re: Six Nations Player of the Tournament nominees announced
Duhan van der Merwe was the Top Try scorer with Sheenan.
Italy was such a success. They've beaten Wales and Scotland and managed a draw against France. They've lost by a whisker against England 24-27 . Tommaso Menoncello was one of their stars in all this.
Would say it's a two horse race.
