Mitchell should have stayed on, but I was pleased to see the new guys getting on, it shows Borthwick has ambition to move our game on. Its a work in progress Have we ever come that close to losing against Italy? Nope..it is the closest defeat for Italy against England. Previous game was 10 February...

Consider the qualifier. Tom Cruise is taller than any dwarf. Doesn't make him a giant.

I remember at u16 level that running a loop in midfield was a sophisticated move that would catch defences unawares.

Can anyone say they've watched Roots and been even mildly impressed? I must have seen him play - just haven't actually noticed him :shock: On a similar note, I have watched Roots play and been impressed. It's just that the player I've been impressed with is Feyi-Wabuso. I haven't noticed Roots at a...

For fûck sake Why is it around the 6Ns we pick up loads of injuries? I don't think any of the squads are at full strength, are they ? It's been a long season, given that it started with a RWC not long after the previous one ended. Ford, for example, has already played the kind of minutes this seaso...

One does admire Trump's observation most of his supporters are too dumb to pass a test as to whether they're suffering from dementia. Like a stopped clock. If he vomits enough word salad, sometimes he will say something true. Much like when he observed that he could literally commit murder, and his...

Snopes just issued a "Fact check reversal". My question is why would they ever have to? The picture speaks for itself. Cracked me up over my morning coffee.

I haven't been keeping up with the Prem much this season - which of the uncapped players are genuine prospects likely to start vs last-televised-game picks or squad filler? Roots shouldn't be in there. Or Waboso for that matter. They are clearly there to secure them for England. Not that Roots was ...

several media sources suggesting jonny hill to france is looking very likely. if the likes of hill,ludllum ,sinckler leave its not the end of the world for england as none of these players are world class stars who can not be replaced in the squad. it does leave us with less strength in depth if in...

Jesus. He's already been a top flight rugby player for nearly half his life. The guy's just relentless. I think he was considered to be pretty much on his last legs nearly a decade ago. But he keeps on going.

I'm going to be with family this Christmas, and one of my sisters is a deranged pro-MAGA nut job.

Whilst I agree with some of that particularly with the effect of inflation on poverty levels, without necessary GOP help several Federal anti-poverty measures expired. Without doubt the GOP aren't remotely interested in governing/helping. They're just there for the culture wars and grifting. They a...

I don't get the obsessive support of Trump from some people? You don't seem to get the equivalent with Biden.. or whoever is in opposition. No one has an obsession with them.

This comes after a year of "deliberation".

I note with interest that Pelosi’s attacker has been found guilty after a week’s trial. Appears that there were no ‘serious questions’. Colour me shocked.

Someone mentioned previously the 200K Jimmy paid Joe after he received a China payment. Joe says it was a loan, but no one has seen any documentation.

This is the reality of the current salary cap. Teams as big as Tigers can't be competitive without spending waaaaay beyond their income and sugar-daddy cash bungs. Raising the cap is absolute insanity, and can only lead to worse financial positions and more clubs going under. They're talking about ...

For all the talk about their academy , Tigers looked absolutely toothless without their RWC players. A full-strength Sarries pack absolutely bullied them today. A Tigers pack containing almost no academy players. The academy graduates were Reffell and Clare, the latter of whom is in his 30s having ...

Leonard played both sides.

I was trying to make the list vaguely recent for the purposes of this debate. To show good scrummaging was a relatively current (so-called) English strength. Yeah, that was apparent. Interesting that Probyn still hasn’t been topped since the pro era began, though. Darren Garforth was pretty tough, ...

When Dan Cole was 21 he was all action. No he wasn't. He's never been a particularly mobile prop. He had hair is about the main difference. Scored a try-of-the season contender playing for Bedford, running it in from half way. He was a very mobile younger player, and what he'd lack in ball-carrying...

This is a savage indictment of the standard of EQP 3s in the Premiership. He wouldn't even make a RWC squad for any of the higher-ranked sides. I assume you're excluding Wales, given their squad contained two English tightheads who came through the Premiership. Aren't England above Wales in the ran...

TH is shocking. Cupboard is bare. Might have to find some Saffers Havent we taken shikerling at exeter? Didn’t he suddenly drop out with questions over his eligibility? He also got stuffed by Mako last season. He qualifies this month. And if we discarded every prop who had been outdone in a game at...
