I think he's pretty military medium imho. Decent club player but doesn't really doing anything outstanding.

Plastic Sarrie

I seem to remember Toga claiming Nick Isiekwe was out with a hamstring or thigh injury; I called bullshit on his TNK knowledge at the time, and he's now gone public Nick Isiekwe would love nothing more than to be in the England squad, preparing to play Wales in Cardiff and pushing his case for World...

Carson leaving Sarries too. Bloody hell.

Plastic Sarrie

Presumably Exeter will be really pissing and moaning if they're deducted points? I seen to remember their coach not being impressed at the RFU wanting the league to promote English talent as they'd imported so much. Re: crowds: Sarries make a big point of letting season ticket holders know that they...

Plastic Sarrie

Good news

Plastic Sarrie

Slightly amusing outcome of the investigation into the Cleall "headbutt"

She's got nothing to answer for, and RFU have given the Exe coach a formal warning

Plastic Sarrie

Apparently Exter are also in big trouble. Maybe this is a blessing in disguise. They will need to start fresh again. A 12 team premiership with a slightly salary cap (and caps on individiual players) financially supported by RFU. And bring back promotion/relegation. Or a 16 team Anglo Welsh competi...

I've only ever had one chance to see Metallica live, at Rock Am Ring in 2008. It was pissing down with rain and we couldn't get anywhere near the stage, so me and missus went back to our tent instead.

The wind meant we got to listen to their set, crystal clear and dry. It was tremendous

Plastic Sarrie

Just booked to see The Anchoress at Union Chapel in London. Never been there before, but it looks incredible

Plastic Sarrie

Had she played this season? I don't recall seeing her name on a roster in a while. I think she played an Allianz Cup game this year. Good game at StoneX. Bristol were terrific in the first half, put Sarries under all sorts of pressure. Second half....I didn't see much of as the children wanted to p...

In related news I'm off to Sarries - Briz today. Should be a cracker.

Vicky Fleetwood has retired with immediate effect

Plastic Sarrie

Bimbo can you answer the other 2 question please? I had a chat with our Treasury business manager (ex banker) who's a season member of Quins, about LI and the other 2 clubs that went under and state of professional rugby. He thought the players were getting too much money. Maybe he has a point. May...

With such humble supporters as Hoof, it's not wonder Sarries are so popular.

Made up for Jackson Wray and Duncan Taylor. Still gutted Malins is leaving. Theo Dan is a baller.

Plastic Sarrie

I thought the whole point of moving to Brentford was it was relatively close to the Irish fan base?!

Plastic Sarrie

It's f**ked Exeter's game plan. So I'm all for it.

Plastic Sarrie

I’ve actually gone off rugby a bit, not coaching or playing next season. Can’t be arsed watching the prem, and yeah England are pure AIDS. Something has definitely changed, maybe something intangible? It’s not just me- a few mates are in the same boat. It may be because I feel the game is on a seri...

Plastic Sarrie

Murley was hugely impressive, I thought.

Plastic Sarrie

Is he paying his own rent yet? Last time I heard a Tory donor was sorting him out.

Plastic Sarrie

Dan needs to work on his darts a bit but his loose game is terrific

Baffling.

Players should tackle lower / not lead with their head.

Tigers (average age 34.2) and Sarries (average age 30.4) putting out two of the oldest backlines in Prem history?

We should just kick the welsh out and take in the english sides. Leave the taffs to fiddle with themselves as punishment for their constant treachery
More inbreeding is not the answer to Welsh problems
I'm just hearing that Ulster don't want to play Sale away again.

Bloody Enya

It might be memory playing tricks but I could have sworn England won in New Zealand c2002 or 3; they were down to 13 men for some of it. Was that a one off?

Plastic Sarrie

The Spencer spoofers are out in force I see. It's too late now, but at his peak I don't think he had many weaknesses for a 9. Quick to ruck, quick pass speed, reliable, decent box kick, decent defence. He's even a captain now. At the very least he was better than fücking Youngs Also scored an absol...

Plastic Sarrie

Watching on telly would've been 5 nations on Grandstand, I'd imagine. Late 80s / early 90s.

Started playing when I went to a state school with pretensions. Started regularly going to club games when Sarries moved to Watford.

Plastic Sarrie

No he won't. Unless England win the world cup

The NRL pressed the nuclear button by unilaterally announcing the salary cap in December. Since then tensions have risen and progress has stalled in negotiations between the league and the Rugby League Players Association (RLPA) over a new collective bargaining agreement. Why are the NRL, clubs and...

Jamie George is definitely a first choice selection, surprised he's not in contention to be captain.
Isn't he injured?

Starting - and captaining - Sarries tomorrow night.

Plastic Sarrie

Pretty sure I was at USyd the same time as him. The Libs on campus were a bunch of absolute wankers.

Maybe Jackson Wray is retiring?

That was my main thought. Wray's been an unbelievable servant, but that's a decent upgrade.

Rumours of money problems at Quins???

Those have been floating round for a while, haven't they?

Faz is absolutely not the bloke I'd want to bring on at 10 to turn a game round.

Plastic Sarrie

Let's not pretend the Vunipola's and Tizard are some remarkable scouting pick up, either. All had huge reputations before signing for Sarries. Lewington had scored a few tries at Leicester too, iirc. McCall and his coaching team are clearly terrific, that all said, but what I'm fascinated to see is ...

I'd imagine 12 years of underinvestment in both health and social care are involved. There's a huge number of beds taken up by medically fit people who need some form of care who can't get it. That won't help. Although the government claims to have record investment in the NHS, it's been merely mat...

Absolutely hate what he did managing my club, Watford. Did an unspeakably bad job and blew up the bonus GT had left for him.

Nonetheless, seemed like a lovely man and 58 is absolutely no age at all. RIP
