    IRB law variations 2012

    The IRB have announced the trial law variations for 2012, it's a shame that they decided to have further discussion before to removing the 'Pause' in the scrum engagement but the 5 second 'use it or lose it' for rucks is a good move in my opinion...

    6 Nations 2012 Week 1

    I've just spent a pleasant afternoon sheltering from the snow with a few beers and a couple of games of rugby........... The French looked very good, the Italians played well but never looked in it, the French backs are on fire especially in the second half when they pulled the Italians apart...

    The cost of TV

    Having noticed that a lot of Premiership Rugby as well as a fair few footie matches I want to watch are on ESPN I've just added the channel to my Sky package. I must admit that I'm a bit lazy when it comes to checking how much I'm paying out on direct debit, but I must admit to being a bit...

    6 Nations 2010 General Chat

    The England team has been announced (see below) and Lee Byrne should find out the result of his appeal against a 2 match ban today. My thoughts on the Lee Byrne ban are that it was a technical offence by Ospreys and an individual player shouldn't have been punished. I hope they see sense and...

    Old Boys network

    Has the old boys’ network completely gone? I remember when you nipped into supply and someone helped you out because he knew you or when a quick trip to the Regiment Section resulted in a brand new green card and cuppa in the paint bay meant you went home with shiny No1 shoes. My experience...

    New Zealand v England

    The Teams have been announced for Saturdays test (see below), does anyone give this new look England side a cat in hells chance of pulling off a victory? I believe that expectations have to be realistic. This is something of an ad hoc selection, is this a Johnson or Andrews team? The front row...

    South Africa v Wales

    Are Wales going to take their 6 nations form into the summer tour of SA? both sides are missing a few names and the SA team now have the added handicap of player quota's (quite a few names that will be unknown to many in the springboks line-up). Should be a good weekend of rugby whatever the...

    Tigers do a Chelsea

    Leicester have sacked head coach Marcelo Loffreda after only one season in charge. He got them to the premiership final but that doen't seem to have been enough. To be fair they didn't look much like the tigers of recent seasons for most of the year, question is who is going to replace him...

    Football Shirt Sponsorship.

    Well done to Aston Villa, they have agreed to a shirt sponsorship with Acorn Children's Hospice (a West Midlands-based children’s charity). The charity will get the advertising for free next season. I realise that most clubs are involved in some sort of charity fundraising, but with the amount...

    England and the Baa Baas

    Having watched the England game today, as well as the Baa Baas previous game against Ireland at Kingsholm, I have 2 questions: 1. What the feck were England doing today? That was one of the most dire performances I have ever had the misfortune to watch. Let's be fair the opposition were...

    Southern hemisphere get it's way.

    I know we've discussed the Experimental Law Variations on here before but it now looks like the November Tests are going to be played using some ELVs. It’s nice to see that the IRB have taken no notice of the RFU and WRU concerns and just pushed on regardless. LINK TO STORY I think some...

    Is Martin Johnson the answer?

    According to the BBC (LINK) Martin Johnson is due to decide over the next week whether or not he wants the position of England Manager. What exactly will Jonno bring to the table? He’s being touted as the answer to England’s recent patchy form with the same sort of blind zeal certain footie...

    Ireland Coach O'Sullivan quits

    It seemed inevitable to me but now it's actually happened: LINK Eddie O'Sullivan has quit as Ireland coach, looks like Kidney at Munster is favourite to take over but I wouldn't write off Jake White (unless he's waiting for the England job).

    France v Italy

    Not seen the teams announced yet, I wonder if the French will make a shed load changes (they did when they were winning so why not when they've lost). Come Italy :PDT_Xtremez_30:
