There appear to be quite a few independents lining up for a tilt at Bradfield... you'd wonder if it's an effort to dilute the vote.

Thanks for the heads up. Been turning it off and on with no joy.

France in Paris will be a cracker. Not that the other three matches will be dull.

I'm hearing it won't be Felix Jones. Given the flow of players from Leinster to Munster in recent times Leo could be in the running.

As part of Sigma's EGM shareholders approved the appointment of Chemist Warehouse co-founders, Jack Gance and Mario Verrocchi, to the merger company's board.

It's not an unlikely outcome... although I suspect Italy might pip Wales, but you never know, the regions are riding high in the URC with two of four in the top eight.

That looks like something you'd give for the office "Bad Santa".

Leinster schools rugby is the pinnacle of the game 😂. Have you not heard the story of the guy who bumped into O'Driscoll and waved his Leinster Junior (under 15s) Cup medal about, saying (something along the lines of) - 'you'll never have one of these'? Brian is said to have wept for days after it.

I was over on the other platform, and some bloke was questioning the legitimacy of the results of the Irish general election as a sitting minister topped the poll in the Meath East constituency.

Is wanting people to have access to affordable healthcare really a leftist idiology? In pretty much every other western nation healthcare is a right rather than a privilege. In the US the two major parties appear to be centre-right and further right.

That's fair. Pieter Steph has been excellent this year.

He was lucky, that could easily have been red.

For a guy who was rarely injured, he's had a bad run since he became the first Irish international to win a Rugby World Cup as a player.
Hope whatever's forced him out this weekend isn't serious or long term.

Yeah. They are absolutely quality, with Tony Brown on board their attack is getting even better, they're bringing in exciting young players... and they've learned from the two defeats. Would love to seem them play France.

Do you think Liverpool will cash in on Alisson and make Kelleher their #1 next season?

Yeah. He's consistently been among the best around throughout his career, so I wouldn't begrudge him the honour - I think all four are fantastic players. As much as it pains me to say... the three South Africans probably have stronger claims to the award than Doris, as good as he is.

It's got to be PSDT.
Etzebeth would've been a contender last year, but good as he's been, he hasn’t been at the level of Pieter-Steph.
Doris has been good, but not as good as he has been in previous years... suspect they just wanted a different shade of green and threw his name in.

Indeed. It's hard to understand why he hasn't had his shoulder tapped to fix all that ails the game nationally and globally. Would've been the man to replace the stellar Bill Beaumont was World Rugby's Chair!

It's a massive shock. He's one of the game's deep thinkers, always well-considered 😂

"We NEED the FIVE elected members of the PC to be COMMUNITY PHARMACISTS. NO exceptions!" The group's administrator said.
"Regarding the CAPS voting lists: These are NOT an individual’s choice—they reflect the collective vote of community pharmacists."

The group, which led protests voicing opposition to the introduction of 60-day dispensing has issued #HowToVote advise via its NSW #WhatsApp chat, advising pharmacists on who they should vote for in the election.

Not happy with the idea of Ireland being the George Foreman (grill era) of international rugby.
Do you thing the RFU Board's alleged "support" for Borthwick suggests they're lining up Felix Jones to replace him?

Well, that's what I'll be listening to on the way home from the office this evening.

Of the 3041 first-time registrants in the 2023/24 year, 56.5% were trained outside of Australia, in contrast to 36% of the 2177 first-time registrations in 2022/23.

Got to agree with you on law changes inevitably leading to more disruption. That said, it would be nice to have pro players pack scrums with so many resets.
I don't like the way teams with dominant scrums can't use their edge under the latest variations of the laws.
