Fella at work had a stent fitted, said it felt like he'd been turbocharged- he didn't realise he'd been gradually slowing over a long period of time

Yeah the game is in rude health you joker.

You're wrong. The crowds at Twickenham are still very white and becoming older. Adult Playing numbers are still through the floor. The brain damage thing is progressively f**king the game. Clubs are broke and still want to increase the cap, it's a comedy. England producing a shit product, just compo...

When people are paying good money, I'm not even sure they're happy to win that ugly. They are trying to CPR a dying sport.

Steady on there. Wiggy was still employing the 'hoof and chase' approach against Scotland. This "change" has only been in place for two matches, and has a 50% success-rate (via a last-minute droppy) so far. There's every chance Scabbers will revert to the same style against NZ and SA later this yea...

Not much hope for unity, when even stats is acting the maggot.

I find it fascinating that the death of seven aid workers, mainly non-Palestinian, are suddenly seen as the "final straw" and not the deaths of more than 30,000 Palestinians who have died before this. Weren't the three Brits military contractors? Hired as security, I believe. Didn't protect them fr...

IFW has come in and immediately shown what a winger needs to be doing. Fast, powerful, looks for work. Players like OHC and Arundell, for England at least, lacked that last bit. I’ve always thought Caden should have been given a run, but it feels like that ship has sailed. He clearly doesn’t have s...

Hamas should take the moral high ground and release the hostages.

I see that the Chiefs have posted LRZ's top speed in a match as being 2mph (24.something mph) faster than Tyreek Hill's fastest game speed. That is some interesting marketing right there. I bet Tyreek hits his top speed a lot quicker than LRZ does, though. A few points: TH made that run with helmet...

Somehow - and I’m not about to start looking a gift horse in the mouth - they sell 6 large bottles of Stella for $10 over here, so my Monday evenings watching the sunset over downtown Austin are greatly enhanced in the chilled company of Mrs Artois. I was knocked back at the cheapness of the Stella...

I need to hear a little more about WR not blocking. :lol: :lol: fudge, I was hoping I'd get away with that when I read it back!

Wine Wednesday.

Even if I don't drink any other day, wine Wednesday breaks the week up a treat.

DragsterDriver

Well well well. Seems Sanderson wasn't bluffing when he said we'd been focusing on our attack. Some great performances, Roebuck showed how good he is and Curry made a monumental difference. So physical on both sides of the ball, a joy to watch. Ford marshalled things nicely and Quirke made a big im...

Yeah very 'penaud' in my opinion. Smooth.

The Feyi kid is very good, not really seen any club games but loads of power. He's good.

Nice try from sale

Quins massively bottle it against Sarries. Super Faz and his Sarries gang ain't that good.

Yep, plenty of opportunity to cut the ball carrier in half.

Slight home needs a consistent run for me. Would love to see radwan in a team like Saints

DragsterDriver

Isiekwe on the other hand has a horrible tackling technique. The contrast between him and Lawes is stark. They both have very similar physical attributes. One plays rugby like his life depends on it. The other runs around looking like he doesn't want to get involved in the rough stuff. Yeah that is...

Not sure, but it's FT. Newcastle 13-19 Leicester That feels like a poor result for tigers? It was, they were dreadful. Any other team would have put them away. What happened at the end was bizzare. Tigers have fell off a cliff, like MOC is back in charge Doesn't feel like Mckeller was a great choic...

it seems questionable in the extreme there's only one way to be a conservative and anyone who steps away from one strand of conservatism should be derided for not having a sufficiently pure take on conservatism. Rory Stewart, Amber Rudd, Dominic Grieve, these people are dyed in the wool conservativ...
