This may surprise some, but Josh Lewsey is an absolute gem.


I bumped into Josh Lewsey and a couple of his mates late one night in Chippy Alley, Cardiff about 10 years ago. I was very well oiled and I have no idea what I said to him but he didn't laugh but his three mates were in absolute ...

Hansen over Graham is the true wtf selection.

Ryan's a very lucky boy. I don't think he's much cop at all.

Wrap Sheehan in cotton wool because he's the only hooker with any class.

Would've expected Ford over M. Smith tbh. Smith will do fine, though. Just don't bloody play him at fullback ...

I accept we need to take some token Welsh, but useless English backs are not acceptable. At all.

Awful choice and gutted no Darcy Graham

Right. This one is on me. Turns out my 93 year old dad did turn on the audio descriptive commentary. Apologies

Anyone else watching this game on ITV wondering if they've put Audio Descriptive on with the commentator describing haircuts? His commentary is mad. It's like he's on a KPI for getting points if information over

So true, my pet hate is seeing backs square up against big forwards knowing that are not going to get lamped. it never happened 20 years ago. There should be some sort of amnesty for any second ...

My brother in law shot for Scotland, and both my sons shoot both recreationally and competitively.

There are enough relies and friends with multiple guns that neither own a gun yet. They both applied for licences nearly a year ago and are still waiting.

Tomos Williams will be putting his hand up.

Saw a rumour that Bristol are throwing cash at Jordan.


The rugby pod said they offered 850k to Marcus Smith and will offer that much to Fin Smith and Farrell. If Bristol really want him they'll get him...


300k was what I saw for Jordan.

According to the Telegraph done deal at £300k and ...

The Aussie whisky Starward Leftfield is an excellent drop. On offer on Amazon for £32 a bottle. As good as a lot of Scotches for the price

Incidentally, Ian Smith is at #2 and if you haven’t read his book, you really should.


Different Ian Smiths. Try scoring Ian Smith played 1924 - 1933 won 32 caps and scored 24 tries Book writing Ian Smith (self confessed slower than your average prop) played 1969 -1972 got 9 caps (1 for Hong ...

Thats some fury to take it out on ...

Star Trekking by The Firm was first vinyl purchase. It was for my brothers birthday though. My first proper album was U2 The Joshua Tree. I say proper as I don't know if any one else remembers the Woolworths tapes you could buy for 99p. I think they were called "A tribute to ..." or something like ...

Hope this ok apologies if not

My club, Cardiff Harlequins have got some tickets for this Saturdays game. They are Cat C and priced at £100 which is the face value. So if anyone was thinking of coming down you can now have a ticket to the game. See Scotland win in Cardiff for the first time in 20 ...

I'll be following this thread. My weight has crept up during lockdown. Mainly boredom and booze but also packed in smoking.

Got a few bad habits to break (such as buttering crunchie bars) but know I can lose weight when I put my mind to it, its just hard the moment. I'm having a go at the ...
