    Lions tour 2025

    Owen a popular lad down under it seems. Mitchell is such a beige #9, honestly got nothing exceptional about his game.

    Official Rugby Thread

    Rather like the former Trinidad and Nottingham Forest striker Stern John it very much sounds like the birth registrar got his first and surnames mixed up. As he was born in 1997 I'd have guessed the then Springbok coach Carel du Plessis was maybe the most likely candidate for his name's...

    Bloody hell. :( His brother too.

    Lions tour 2025

    Handy option to have off the bench for tests. Covers fly half, inside centre and full back. Very much the Lions' best midfield defensive player (armless tackles notwithstanding), so could see him coming on to protect a lead at about 55/60 mins if Farrell pere goes for Russell at stand off, as...

    Lions tour 2025

    Massive pisser for Daly. He's been quality in every game so far too, arguably ver Lions' form back. It was inevitable Farrell fils would get a call up at some point. I don't have a problem with it, for all his faults he is a test match beast.

    what streaming/cable services do you use for sport and how much does it cost you

    Yeah, we are. I just agree to what the missus says usually but looking at the prices we're getting absolutely rinsed. I can basically get our package for £85.

    Scyld Berry 30 greatest test fast bowlers

    I mean, I imagine they're both transliterations into latin script, so probably the same name as originally written.

    what streaming/cable services do you use for sport and how much does it cost you

    I have the full Sky Sports package, but not TNT. NFI what it costs as we have phone, broadband, Netflix, Sky Movies and Disney channel in a bundle, which is £150.48 a month.

    Scyld Berry 30 greatest test fast bowlers

    I don't have a problem with Jasprit at #1 myself; it's at worst a defendable position. He has 200+ test wickets at <20 apiece. Pretty sure that's unique in the annals. If he (god forbid) walked out in front of that hypothetical bus tomorrow I reckon he'd be thought of as the best in half a century.

    I'd actually guess (without looking) yer Sweaties are worse than the Micks. Maybe the Welsh too, actually. Half their squad seems to be born on the senior side of Offa's Dyke. Ireland are just more judicious with their poaches.

    Lions tour 2025

    54-7 feels about right. Think I've likely reverse jinxed Pollock into the test XV. Might not carry like a traditional #8, but makes his yards. Shares in Elliot Fitzgerald Daly PLC have steadily risen too. Reckon his versatility might just snag him a bench spot for the first Wobblies game...

    Lions tour 2025

    Hope Williams isn't badly injured. I'm as patriotic a Pom as the next man, but the difference with him at 9 compared to Mitchell v los Pumas was very marked. Much, much quicker service. Scoreline blowing out a bit now, but was a good contest for 45 minutes.

    But he can do that.

    Dropped bollock from Pollock. Spills a simple take to cede possession. Boy has the anti-Midas touch right now; everything he touches turns to crap.

    Lions tour 2025

    Looked very high shot on Donaldson from Hansen before the Force try. WTF is going on with White's haircut? A grade 0 high fade is a very bold call for a man in his mid 30s.

    Wow. Some try. Watch it get called back for the blatant forward pass from Russell earlier now.

    Sports that you've learned to love later in life

    Imagine the backpass rule had an impact on goals. Mind you it's like 35 years now, so there's likely other factors in play. :ph34r: The "reinterpretation" of the offside rule re active/passive for one. I always think of Clough's quote, "If he's not interfering with play then he ****ing...
