The UAFC

I have read as little as possible about this, but correct me if I'm wrong: Did he make some poor choices in his personal life? It would seem likely. Did he break the law ? Apparently not. Did his actions compromise his abilities as a journalist? Hardly. Are there more important things happening in t...

That's a new level of sh*t.

Honestly never even contemplated that there would not be a french team at home and the other french team away.

Neill_M - (or indeed any other anoraks who may be interested) - I have the fixture list as raw data in a xls, csv, or whatever. If you want a copy, let me know.

Is there anyone out there who cares?

Sharks and Stormers away just before H cup is a disaster. Nice finish to the season with Leinster home and Munster away. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk So not back to the year 1 matches Bulls and Stormers away? Is it Zebre / Benetton away? Maybe I picked it up wrong, I was more interested in wh...

Cheetahs and the black lions (from Georgia; not Co. cavan) are the invites to the Parker Pen 23/24

Accidently clicked on this thread and it raised a grin.

who put the pressure on ? my bet is D4 -- since any delay will effect the Budget of the IRFU as much as the Ulster branch and basically there is no suitable alternative venue for Ravenhill --KingSpan ? for normal games . Ulster could play some games away early in the season and postpone a couple of...

At one point I thought the whole thing might have been a set up to move the Wagner troops into position for a strike from the north. I'm still not absolutely sure it isn't... That thought had also crossed my mind ?? Also, if it was a genuine rebellion against Putin, where does that leave the Wagner...

Hopefully this builds into a proper rebellion. Putin will even more desperate and more paranoid than ever. Not sure we really want a desperate, paranoid individual with significant nuclear capabilities. It would probably be better that he believes he is safe and secure, and in complete control unti...

Does the planning portal work?

Anything is better than this duff format. 6 x 4 pools is grand, I suppose, unless they might try 4 x 4 with 2 going through from each group, but presumably that would bring a big drop in income. Or 8 x 4 with only the winner going through? Why not 32 teams? You thinking, all the T14, all the URC an...

The classic 4 team group with 8 quarter finalists was simple and by far the best If it ain't broke dot dot dot dot.... If I was going to try to be fair to the swiss, I would say: The 2 pool format was a reaction to Covid. They accepted its shortcomings and changed it. Their hands were tied by this ...

There is still the stadium at Colombes though?? Being used for field hockey in the Olympics according to google. That's in the summer though. I imagine you can switch between a rugby pitch and a hockey pitch relatively quickly (subject to planning permission, of course). La Defense is high tech, bu...
