How much are the WRU on the hook for if they sack Gatland?

Is sacking Gatland going to make much a difference? Apart from Morgan there doesn't seem to be much quality in the side.

Are the Saffers the only team that don't celebrate scrum penalties?

Need more Ben Earl and Andrew Porter.

If this was a boxing match it would've been over after 10mins.

I'm genuinely impressed with them that they haven't conceded another 2 tries. They are getting an absolute battering, but not sure many other teams would be matching the Boks in this form.

Tough subject. Think the Swiss probably have it right but jeez, an absolute minefield. Maybe slightly crass here but its a relevant topic for me at present as I'm looking at a few policies, but what are the life insurance ramifications if you do assisted dying? Is it like suicide and your family don...

Quality test match, really enjoyed that. England need to fix their defence. For all their attacking prowess that they have, you should not be conceding 42 points at home. But happy for the Aussie karnts. The rugby world needs a strong Australia, and for them to be a pack of hateful arrogant c*nts :t...

Congrats NZ. Comfortably the better side. That was utter shite from Ireland. Bringing Dad's Army off the bench didn't seem to work. Hard to see what some of them bring to the party apart from "experience," especially when one of the first things 80+ cap Hendy does when he comes on is give ...

Last time Trump won an election, Chicago happened the following weekend (if my memory serves).

Ireland by at least 20.

Fat fuck in my school year got called Slim.

All this does make me wonder if it’s us being led by the nose by our liberal media, and maybe we are not quite as clever as we think. We’ve stuck our head in the sand and spent 2 years laughing at Trump without perhaps getting the nuance of what he is saying - I’m not saying he is a clever guy, he’...

Old Joe probably doesn't know what he's grinning about tbf

Looks like he's about to call it and Harris is away for a kip.

Jesus, Americans are a bunch of mad bastards

Paddy Power has Trump down to 1.3 from 1.56 earlier today, and Harris up to 3.5 from 2.5 . . . . . .

Furlong out.

Big loss for Ireland given how strong the Kiwi scrum looked v England. Bealham is capable but have absolutely no trust in ToT coming off the bench and holding up a scrum after 55mins.

I'm sure its been discussed before but how did the pandemic effect voting behaviour in 2020? As in which candidate suffered the most due to society's restrictions at that time?

WTAF was George Ford doing with that tackle "attempt" for the 3rd try? He's a yard away from touch, any kind of hit with his shoulder and the dude is out. Why on earth would you be attempting a wrap tackle in that scenario?

because when they clip a game up it's consistently one of the most popular if not the most popular clip from a given game on social media. which might say much for rugby that what the casual fan wants to watch isn't even part of the actual playing of the game viewer participation and engagement are...

Ask any gringo sports fan about rugby and they'll know next to fuck all about the sport outside of Matt Damon captaining the Boks to the World Cup, and the Haka. I get that it has cultural significance to Kiwis, but World Rugby and broadcasters love whoring it out for commercial gain / brand awarene...

I find US elections quite entertaining but the sheer number of attack ads on Trump I see on social media, Reddit, this thread, the language used by the likes of the BBC etc., to describe his events, leads me to believe that both sides are as bad as each other when it comes to spreading shit about th...

Television Match Official (TMO) protocol, empowering officials to spot clear infringements in the final phases before scoring. Vague BS. The laws need to clarify and specify exactly how many phases. Agreed. This one will be a shit show and lead to more replays, more dramatic gasps and boo's from th...

Fucking idiot, and laughable legal system. Put the cunt behind bars for a week or 2, and if that doesn't work, hit him with all sorts of fines and the prospect of doing real time. The family shouldn't have to deal with him showing up and acting the cunt whenever he fancies, and getting a slap on the...

Hard to see past Roglic at this point. I always had Mas down as the Spurs-iest rider of the current global peleton, always good but never having the bollocks to actually win something. But been really impressed by him so far. A standard fuck up/crash from Roglic, which is usually a decent bet, and i...

Don't think I've ever seen something quite as punishing as yesterday's finale :eek: Looked like a standard Cat 1 finish for about 14km, with the Hardknott Pass thrown at the top for a laugh. Vlasov's face chasing Castrillo at the end was a picture :lol: Some performance from Castrillo, Ineos may hav...

LRZ did not make the Chiefs squad. They re-signed JuJu Smith-Schuster and gave him Zammit's number earlier in the week. Will be on the practice squad, and will technically be on waivers so another team can claim him if they want (won't happen). The other UK players, aren't on squads either. Travis ...

Seemed a decent bloke. Couldn't tame the "Golden Generation" though. Euro 2004 will always be the one that got away.

Really enjoying La Vuelta so far. The route looks absolutely horrific, which is always fun to watch. Some of the mountain stages still to come look barbaric 😂 Roglic looking strong despite fucking up and letting O'Connor get a big advantage. UAE yet to fire a shot. Enric Mas not looking as hopeless ...

For me, born in 89 and growing up in NI, and getting Sky Digital and the music channels in 00-01, it has to be Daft Punk - One More Time.

Heard it on the radio for the first time in ages. Wow. Music got me feeling so free . . .

I hope he's on a pay per game contract.
He has a shocking injury profile, and no longer has any gas.
Hopefully he can still be a 90%+ goalkicker though.

I think I've been on here a few times flirting with giving up the booze, but I'm currently into my 3rd week off it. I wouldn't have said I had a major problem with booze, more that I just disliked being hungover as I'm too busy, didn't like getting sloppy on big nights, ans it really interfered with...

Some of the power numbers are fairly incredible tbf. I'm a former backrower weighing in at 100kgs. I'm not as fit as I'd used to be, but I'd probably do a 5km in sub 22mins and have an FTP of 348watts according to Zwift. I've only returned to the gym in the last few weeks and would be doing sets of ...

Shame Dan Lloyd had to leave Eurosport. Comfortably the best pundit around. Although King "gonna be an interesting/difficult one" Kelly is always good comedy.

Carlton Kirby however

Utterly ridiculous pace up the last mountain. Even Evenepoel smashed the existing KOM, and he dropped 3 minutes on Pogacar. TV analysts over here saying it's the culmination of new developments that started during Covid, when teams had a lot of downtime so looked deep into all sorts of marginal gai...

I may be wrong but I think the "Anyone But England" vibe in Ireland wasn't so prominent this year, as general interest in the tournament was much lower across the board. Lets be honest, it was largely a shit tournament full of shit games. But clearly some of the Jocks got carried away with...

Pogi is Pogi, he'll do what he wants. But I have so much respect for Vinny. In the past he has had such an awesome team around him, allowing him to dictate the race situation etc. This year he doesn't, and obviously had a terrible build up to the tour. But jeez, the little man is a tough fucker. I k...

Yeah thats pretty bad.

The big pro of it is obviously the stability of governing parties having big majorities to enact reforms, but clearly a lot of disenfranchised voters.

I think we can all agree that its fucking great to see the DUP shit the bed. Pack of karnts.

Shame that Jim Allister is the alternative for Ian Paisley jnr though.

Betfair have Cav at 5.5 for today. Worth a punt that given how strong he looked yesterday

Serious wattage in those last 200m

Fair fucks to him after waiting so long to get the 35th win. Unbelieveable performance at his age and against that level of competition.

Same opponents as Sharks.

Lets just say I'd fancy the Sharks' pack to deal with those 4 sides a tad bit better than Ulster's.
