    [2024 Six Nations] Scotland vs England - 24/02/24

    Scotland fair winners, Game full of mistakes from both sides ,Englands far more costly. Ref was merh for both sides as always homesides gain advantage of merh. England desperately need an attack coach rather than looking at our players who need to have a known plan attack of first phase seems...

    2023-2024 transfers

    Yep with Moon gone as well, expect Courtney will go as well so a lot of weight lost out of pack. Need at least to add a backrow and hope Pollock does progress.

    [2024 Six Nations] Italy vs England - 03/02/24

    Stats show that but lost a shed load of yards as well when making them. Personally in defence set he needs to be a tad hidden. His game management bar defence is good don't know if Smith or Smith would be better. As posted I personally want to see different players play to see what is best way...

    [2024 Six Nations] Italy vs England - 03/02/24

    For me. Roots deserved MOM. Freeman one wing solved. JG isn't a captain. Underhill so lacks match practice. Ford can't tackle. We still can't find a centre pairing. JM great in tight but offers less than nowt in loose. Cole is and should be gone . Game bits good at times poor at others. Day 1...

    Correct however like many we can't match French offers I guess . As been a good player for us and up through Academy as well.

    Transfers rumours

    Signing confirmation, loss for us .Obviously another salary cap casualty. Big changes for us in pack next year. Unsure on his Scotland status however.

    England 2023/24

    One very good attack/head coach and a now we have a proper defence coach we actually look a far more rounded team. Maybe allows him to be a more CEO than coach . When we struggled last year in defence he sometimes seemed a tad at sea. Always believed coaching is tean effort and getting right...

    Investec Champions Cup 23/24 - Rd 3

    Think Munster v Saints if both go at it will tie of next set. I'm unsure of seedings etc but should be a great game if both go at it. Just wish it was an easy trip for me to Tomand as I'm sure it will be a cracker.

    Premiership Rugby 23/24 - Round 10

    Agree , Langdon has been lights out but maybe behind a good few others. Pearson has dropped a tad in last few games Freeman could be next Daly as is 13, 14, 15 off bench but behind because of experience. Furbank last few weeks as Langdon lights out but behind Seward for 15 by a fair bit. Smith...

    Premiership Rugby 23/24 - Round 10

    Seen on other media sites game of 2 half's For me Sale better of 55 mins then ,bench hugely improved Saints. Deservedly winners at end of day but as always Saints infuriate the fan base one way or another. Glad to be that congestion at the top. Think we will only lose Mitchell for 6N although...

    Investec Champions Cup 23/24 - Rd 1

    As a Saints fan happy to win 2nd half lack of killer edge Sums us really for alot of a game we look great to eye but sometimes lack the dog. Big up to defence. Not going yo comment on which country duels should play for up to them at end of day.

    Premiership Rugby 23/24 - Rd 8

    Think it's showing where teams are closing to rest and teams not. Table seems to show especially if tigers get 5 on Sunday. That a whole lot of dross or some really good competition. Others can decide on that. 1 win separates top 6. 1 win bar top 2 separates champions cup. Bottom 2 however seem...

    [RWC2023 SF2] England vs South Africa (21/10/2023)

    To quote a line from a song Silence is golden. A chat handshake puts water on the fire. He kind of looks stupid for not doing either. Whatever was said. Old fool here what happened on pitch stays on pitch solve before you leave it. Both don't cover themselves in glory.

    Will Wales ever get in a RWC final ?

    Who knows, at present path in Wales is poor but doesn't mean another golden generation does not appear. They are a nation that needs to relax rules on players playing outside of Wales as pool is small. As a England fan I personally want to see a strong Wales limited to region is silly at the best.

    Year end WXV tournament

    Watched as yourself great advert for women's game and yes our men should look to emulate. Power pack hard running mid field and speed outside. Perfect combo.

    England World Cup Squad

    Of course history tells us different, Nuremburg trials for one. Unless Farrell is Spear. Lol.

    [RWC2023 QF2] Ireland vs New Zealand (14/10/2023)

    As a neutral who rarely supports another team which I didn't in this one. What a match had everything. For me slight mark down on Farrell for not hooking Porter earlier clearly had lost Barnes (who had a good game) Defence won it for Abs. Shame Irish out but draw is what it is ,could it be...
