Quins decide to make them look like the vintage all blacks- even Maitland and Daly looked world class- absolute shambles.

This Beard guy though, he can't be this bad surely? Played like an absolute vagina.

Dan and Baxter were handy.

Would be proper funny if Fat Billy won the T14 player of the year at Montpellier next season just to prove any fat tourist could do it.

Well, you have lots of doctors and scientists washing your cars for you.
We have nowhere to house them

Neither do we but it's pretty dicey pointing that out.

It's Curry I feel sorry for. By the looks of the discussion one missed 6N and his England career is over Yeah, and he’s been the best backrower for about 7 years. I’m not ready to ditch him yet. It is nice we have some must-have players now though, like Earl. Ideally something like….Curry, Earl, Me...

Take a look at Mercer’s record in the Top 14, most carries ever (by a mile), most defenders beaten, most offloads, most metres by a forward. He has a phenomenal engine. He may get the plaudits for the fancy stuff but he absolutely doesn’t shy away from the hard stuff either. Look at the stats, and ...

England wouldn't pick Aldritt either.
6ft3 and 115kg of pure all-court, athletic specimen? He'd be the first name on the England teamsheet.
Mercer is 6ft3 and 111kg, what’s your point?

He's digging himself a hole as usual, don't disturb him while he creates his narrative.

I still think Earl can play 7 with Mercer at 8. Best use of resources.

Lippy Leo was hostile enough but the political wing of the IRA is probably going to be too much and we don't really want a land border with it.

fatcat wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 12:45 am The ex-London Irish fellow at Gloucester - Englefield - looks a decent prospect lower down the age list. Doesn't dither, with a snappy service and lovely pass.

I said this the other week on Irish match thread- I think they missed a trick there as replacement/back up for JGP. He looks very good.

Who are our undroppable players? Or players that we should build the team around and we’d suffer a massive drop off with out them, if any? I used to think it was only Itoje and Curry. Now we may have more. I feel like Martin and Earl would be on that list Itoje Martin Earl Lawrence (arguable but he...

For the record, I don't know a single person voting Tory and I would usually know loads.

DragsterDriver

Floating voters will vote labour, hard-core Tories will vote reform, sensible Tories probably won't bother voting.

DragsterDriver

It was always thus, those that won't swap to labour will vote reform. The tories are over.

His 40-yard dash – 4.50 seconds and 4.44 seconds. Not terrible but not the "lightning fast" we were promised. You'd think he'd need exceptional athletic ability to make up for having zero experience to make it. Anyone know what time Christian Wade ran? That's faster than Brandon Aiyuk 4.5 (2nd to T...

Without derailing further- how will Sinn Fein square the immigration circle? They're the 'peoples party' but there doesn't seem to be much appetite for mass immigration into Ireland ?

Nice to seeing the English obsession with commenting on things they don’t understand is as strong as ever. That's typical of the male, Irish, patronising and supercilious attitudes that have made Leo so sad. What was the English line on Brexit? Oh yeah, 'none of your business'. Hmmmmmm. Worked a tr...

NRL it's genuinely big like football in Australia. People go to the Tavern to watch the game and Monday morning on site Everybody chats about the games. It's easy to follow and exciting.

Is Barbeary that good? When I've seen him he looks like a fat penalty machine, prone to injury.

15. Cam Winnett – Still makes rookie mistakes, which is unsurprising given that he is in fact a rookie.

Not the same since his back injury when he went all peace, love and tofu.

I'm not saying don't play them. Merely don't start adding more than say 10-15 senior games a season, and yes those are ever so slightly plucked from the air figures, don't let them go nuts on the weights even if they can push them absent concerns about skeletal maturity and because their game time ...

All front rows have disc and nerve damage,there won't be regular mris.

Dan Cole 22 capped, Joe Marler 21 capped.

In premier games and euro cup games the young props will be facing elite scrummagers, it's not like ye olden days when you might draw Barking in the Cup.

DragsterDriver

They scrummage against seasoned pros in the premiership every week, if they're good enough they're old enough. They'll be hitting good gym numbers only scrummaging will give them 'dad strength'.
