We have a good laugh, get the graft done and if anyone needs help we all muck in. It's just this one kid, he can't go out for one pint. Neighbours, canny bunch. Quiet, majority are elderly and we enjoy chatting with them. During Covid I helped out a lot with them and proud to say kept it up as much as they want me to. Cycling Club, decent bunch. Bit cliquey in parts, but in a large group that's bound to happen. Family, well, the ole saying goes. Can't choose your family eh. Nah, they're a good bunch. Love my in-laws. Albeit my BIL is that tight he doesn't like to breathe out and the cunt isn't even from Yorkshire! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superb MOTM by Ford. Red all day these days, unfortunately. Head injury mitigation is paramount. They are taking such a long time to work it out, England. That's the third in the fourth game.

Curry, the way his body was, the wrap etc all have mitigating circumstances to take it from a red to a yellow. Carrerars on Ford, his line of sight, the intention etc you could argue was worthy more of a red. But IMO it was still a yellow. There's a disciplinary hearing today and I bet they give Curry 3 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a disciplinary hearing today and I bet they give Curry 3 games. The fact that he tackled high and hit the other player in the head is always going to lead to problems. He'll get 3 weeks reduced to 2 if he does the tackling course. There has clearly been considerable inconsistency, because in one game (I think it was the Scotland v SA game) where a player was not even yellow carded for something which looked similar. Seems he hasn't been cited, either, which is nonsense. I suppose it may give Curry some amunition at his hearing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ireland somehow soaked up the pressure and got a try after breaking away near the end. I guess it’s a case of making your own luck, with that brilliant defence but also South Africa’s poor goal kicking stopped them exerting more pressure. In a match like that a couple of missed (relatively easy) chances were huge. Ireland are undoubtedly a fantastic side though. But I can’t quite see them winning it. I think South Africa would win if they meet in the latter stages. That’s purely a hunch and not sour grapes as I would love to see them do it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35402 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Also, Scotland are exceptionally unlucky to be in the same group as the top two sides in the world given how strong Scotland themselves are.

Alex 35402 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Portugal just beat Fiji at the death in an amazing match (I only saw the second half tbh).

Meenzer 15646 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I've just learned that rugby in Portuguese is "râguebi". They deserve the World Cup just for that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredibly funny that Fiji got a bonus point and because they beat Australia, they go through instead of Australia. Of course, England were so shit against Samoa that they will probably lose this, especially as Borthwick keeps on trying to find a way to get Farrell into the team when it is clear that they are better without him. Bit like Lampard and Gerrard, rather than Scholes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 17493 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) Fiji & Portugal will both be above Scotland in the world rankings soon. Saturday night was their chance to at least show they can put it up to the very best in world but after an hour Ireland had scored 36 unanswered points. That’s maybe where we are in the big scheme of things. But the point is half the squad are either approaching 30 or well beyond it and crucially our under 20s are the whipping boys of their age group on the world stage. The whole set up is rotten and all we have to do is look across the Irish see to observe a similar country who are now probably the best in the world. They have NZ next who they recently beat in a test series in NZ . Edited October 9, 2023 by PaddockLad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
