Not really a meritocracy until they ignore 2 of the derby/shield matches in reckoning league points.

I heard mention of a transport strike in Italy on Friday. Usual curse of Ulster rugby.

Re: 2023 world cup
No - he got a red and it was upheld, therefore no mitigation was applied to the red-card decision. Mitigation may have been applied to the tariff at the hearing. That's a different thing.

Re: 2023 world cup
He admitted foul play (I don't know that, but I strongly suspect he did) He raised evidence in mitigation. The original panel accepted that evidence was sufficient that the on-field sanction for the offence 'should have been' mitigated to a YC under the framework. That hearing was therefore null and...

Re: 2023 world cup
6 weeks reduced to 4 for guilty plea, remorse and good character ... suit, hands out of pockets and not eating the bourbons Not seen the reasoning yet but he didn’t plead guilty and his previous wouldn’t help. I suspect the decision is probably technically more deficient than the first one. Why do ...

Re: English Premiership 23/24
I worry that the proven unsustainable model of the English Premiership has decided that the best way to correct things, is to drag another 10 teams into the model.

Re: 2023 world cup
On Saturday's form, England could lose to Japan and Argentina and be on their way home before the end of September. I'm not sure anyone has got their timing just right for a RWC peak, and certainly England are having to play catch up (sacking Jones was a mistake IMHO). But I still expect them to be...

Re: "Unnamed" BBC presenter
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.
