Re: The Training Thread - all aspects of fitness and health
Week of 1RM testing coming up, have two weeks off with a wedding and then holiday, so pouring everything into this week. Absolutely smoked a 160kg squat this morning. f**king delighted. Body has been telling me it's time for a deload, so nice to get that this morning. Exactly a year since I last got...

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
Add in Furlong just about not scoring (fair, IMO, givent eh on-field decision), and Nash taking a step too many and not scoring when it looked easier. Granted, Scotland basically scored an own-goal to balance one of those, but we we unusually profligate with the chances we did have, for whatever rea...

Re: Gregor Townsend
Toonie has seen off Hogg, and has a more mature Russell playing better.
Those are two significant improvements!

Re: The Official Irish Rugby Thread
How did people feel Larmour did? I thought he played as expected. He's 5th(?) choice in the back three, and is not a FB. Even Leinster only select him there as a break glass option in lower profile games. He was drafted in to start at FB in a 6N decider, having not been in the frame for a serious I...

Re: War in Ukraine...
Seems like a win-win campaign. Causes pain, or at least more difficult decision making, for the military as majot consumers of fuel in a war, but also impacts the population.

I woulda gone with Helen Lovejoy. They may be useless in terms of ever expecting them to serve in government or execute any responsibility, but I don't mind them for the most part. The bleeding heart vote deserves its own party, not to be relying on the Shinners or canonising MLMcD cuz she's a woman.

I also think it's harsh and Hendy really stood up at...
