They did similar round here. Now people park on the road and, as a result people drive their cars on the pavement. Would be nice if they actually slowed down while doing so, mind.

france are pish. That is all.

Don't even know who the next in line is at fly half. Given recent selections probably Ramos.

I dont't even know who is next in line at full...

one thing i will say about /that/ decision is that i was screaming for the ball being held up in the immediately preceeding play. Not had time to find the replay yet.

There's been enough ink spilled on the onvious talking points yesterday, but away from that apparently Aldritt's injury was relativly minor - some stitches but no muscle/tendon/bones damaged, and he attended the post-match presser.

I saw the way he'd been pulled over the ruck, and the blood and what looked like bruising on his knee, and was worried that was season over for him, or worse.

i don't have much time for arguing online with strangers these days, but im sure i can stretch to a fantasy league.

Wild. Saw the headline and read it as NRL and figured it made sense, since not everyone can go to the top 14. Should be a fun year away for him.

Still disappointed the rumours of Townsend going for the attack coach position in the French national setup came to nothing. Reckon that could have been fun.

can't remember how much he was earning, but it always seemed to be a fat wedge given the size of the org he was running iirc.

Scottish rugby has its work cut out if it wants ro expand beyond just getting bums on seats tor a couple 6Nn games imo, so interesting to see who comes in to replace.

i assume it's just a procedural issue around the new central contracts. Otherwise it's just a bit weird.

I dont get the fuss over kicking. A good kicking contest is brilliant and is what opens things up for the running rugby everyone says they want.

Bad, aimless kicking is obviously bad, but that's different and can be punished by a team that understand why, how and when to kick.

looks like he's confirmed as skipping the 6N, so should be fine.

Arrhur Vincent, Sekou Macalou and one of Penaud or Bielle-Biarrey also likely to feature for the 7s.

Thought it was mad England sacking Jones, and I was one of the people that maintained England had been underperforming for about 18 months. Couple of million quid buying out contracts just to get to where they would be right now anyways.

But sacking Rennie was absolutely batshit. If you look at the win % he wasn’t doing brilliantly, but a lot of those losses were very narrow, for eg single point (iirc) loss to France in Paris etc, and in circumstances that were less than ideal. The administrators basically YOLO’d it, and there should be heads rolling higher up imo.
