    Pool D - England, Argentina, Japan, Samoa, Chile

    Spot on. I think "brilliant" is mybe a stretch, but it's a very quote-unquote "English" performance; ugly and functional but effective. So far.

    Pool A - New Zealand, France, Italy, Uruguay, Namibia

    Looks effing hot out there. Azzurri trying to take a few too many liberties that close to their 22. Oooo, did the #11 ground it? Should've slid in. EDIT: Yup. Knee perilously close to touch though.

    Flintoff hospitalized after car crash

    Yeah, when one considers it's very nearly 9 months after the accident: yeesh. :mellow: Big fella was likely in a poor old way in the aftermath.

    Other stuff

    I missed it but presume it included swarthy men in berets and stripey shirts brandishing white flags, smelly cheese and baguettes whilst smoking Gitanes and pissing in public? That kinda thing?

    Pool A - New Zealand, France, Italy, Uruguay, Namibia

    Must be the ABs heaviest defeat in a WC?

    Pool A - New Zealand, France, Italy, Uruguay, Namibia

    And that's all she wrote. Plus side for NZ is the Boks lost a group game in Japan. To the ABs as it happens.

    Name ONE GOOD Reason Why Your Team Won’t Win The 2023 Cricket World Cup?

    Our spin looks a little thin. EDIT: I see I'm rather stepping on Moley's reason. Let's say Chris Woakes won't be bowling in home conditions.

    Pool D - England, Argentina, Japan, Samoa, Chile

    England team for los Pumas on Saturday: F Steward (Leicester); J May (Gloucester), J Marchant (Stade Francais), M Tuilagi (Sale), E Daly (Saracens); G Ford (Sale), A Mitchell (Northampton); E Genge (Bristol), J George (Saracens), D Cole (Leicester), M Itoje (Saracens), O Chessum (Leicester), C...

    Otherwise mediocre players who were aesthetic af

    Shameful he's not been mentioned so far, but Ramesh Powar's bowling looked so gorgeous my eyes begged to shag it. Classic, side-on, high-armed offie's action resulting in nice flight and just a hint of drift from the right hander. The whole effect was only enhanced by him being such an...

    ODI World Cup 2023 Fantasy Draft

    Apologies. Just before I submit my bid, I'm right in thinking there's no positions to worry about?

    Pool C - Wales, Australia, Fiji, Georgia, Portugal

    He announced his test retirement a month or two ago and went off to play second tier French club rugby. The timing struck one as odd, but there were quite a few Leekists doing the same so I just assumed Gatland was too much of a insufferable pillock to resist the lure of the Euro. Now though...

    **Official** English Football Season 2023/24

    2nd last, surely?

    Ian Healy vs Rod Marsh

    Iron Gloves. He improved a lot though. Still Healy for my quid, insufferable **** he may be.

    Cricket legacies

    Guess Bernard Bosanquet deserves a nod here as the inventor of the googly. In fact Richie Benaud (who sent down one or two in his playing career) pretty much exclusively used to refer to the delivery as a "Bosie" in honour of its progenitor.

    2023 FIFA Women's World Cup

    Bald, long aqualine nose, an air of a barely restrained threat of ***ual violence... Only one man, surely?

    2023 FIFA Women's World Cup

    Jeez. Eso es una puta locura, as the Castilians would have it. I'm sure Barca, Real, Atletico, Sociedad and Sevilla are very happy to collectively sacrifice €200-300 million odd to save the career of a middle aged *** pest..

    2023 FIFA Women's World Cup

    Yep, nothing says innocence like one's mother locking themselves in a church and starting a hunger strike.

    Boxing thread

    Moorer was like 26 when he got tagged by big George though, not really a case of anno domini, especially given Foreman was mid-forties by the time they fought.

    Official Rugby Thread

    He's taken a poor team and made them worse with godawful, antidiluvian kick and chase tactics that were outdated when we still had Dean Richards turning out at #8. Even Itoje looks a busted flush right now. Genuinely think we could bring in any semi competent coach (what's Dave Rennie up to?)...

    Official Rugby Thread

    Useless, useless bastards. Like a non-swimming midget in the deep end of the pool, Borthwick is very obviously out of his depth. Time for the RFU to blow their whistle, jump in to save him from drowning and pulling us all down with him.
