Good news if confirmed. The Irish Independent reports that RTE and Virgin Media will continue to share the rights in Ireland, while the BBC and ITV will do the same in the rest of the United Kingdom. The deal, which is said to represent a significant uplift in the existing one of £90 million per ye...

Re: The Official Scottish Rugby Thread
I think the last couple of posts are pretty objective and fair. If we were able to field our first choice, fully fit and on form side, I think Scotland could do rather more and better, especially if the current forward-dominated approach to subsitutes were to end somehow. Yet things like injuries a...

Re: The Official Scottish Rugby Thread
I cannot understand why you lot don't get it. Historically Edinburgh have always been fairly rubbish to crap, no matter who has been coach. When a new coach comes in they might have a couple of weeks/months playing really well and then they revert back to their normal attitudes. As for last night, t...

Re: The Official Scottish Rugby Thread
Good luck to Jamie. Although Perpignan are not challenging the top they are a good club and he is following in some names that have been there previously, Strokes and Wagga who thoroughly enjoyed the club, and I am sure Strokes has told Jamie all about it.

Plays in D2, 23, massive, Scottish mum. 23 and playing second tier in France doesn't inspire much confidence, but it's slim pickings in the second row for us so we'll take...

Re: The Official Scottish Rugby Thread
I was going to say Edinburgh were woeful, but they weren't that good. For so many international players in the squad there was no leadership - it looked as if they were trying to be the big guy and get one over on the opposition, and failed miserably. There was no cohesion, again. And their attitude...
