Re: Autumn International squad

Jacob isn't playing rugby at all. He's been injured for months and still people claim he is out of form. He has missed four games I believe. His last year or more has been below par. Such a lazy take. He has shown steady improvement to his all round game. Fielding, tackling, positional play etc. Al...

Re: Autumn International squad

OK Ireland won but it was a poor performance against a limited All Blacks team. Ireland to be found out in the 2023 World Cup as usual when it really matters. How do they fill the stadium with that kind of stuff? Beats me. I thought it was a really good Ireland performance. They dominated just abou...

Re: autobiographies - Rugby & others

Very few rugby biographies are up to much. They don't have a lot to say other than the usual guff. Brian Moore's "beware of the dog" is the one exception its a great read. 1F, BOD and ROG were all trash unless you're a real fan boy. Haskell's book didn't match the hype either. It was reada...

're today.........Never thought I would ever see Warner walk when he wasn't out! Damascus road conversion or what?!
Thought that was an extraordinary lapse of judgement.

Solids You carry the almost unique distinction in this forum of rethinking your standpoint on presentation of an alternative interpretation. More power to your elbow!

Ireland’s loss is hopefully UR gain, if we can keep him.
I don't see any reason why John would move away from Ulster. He feels appreciated and likes it here.

Re: Autumn International squad

Maybe I'll watch it again, but i didnt see any aussies near the pod that could have mde it even a theoretical maul. For me its flying wedge under new lawm and the fact that oit happens from a lineout rather than a goalline ruck is irrelevant. Contact with face, yes. But that is a long way off swing...

Re: Autumn International squad

Just watched Scotland v Australia. Niggly boys those Aussies but a very watchable game. I'm always impressed with Romain Poite as a referee. He knows that he can't see everything and has a lot of common sense. Was his last international game today. Probably for the best, given the blatant flying we...
