Re: RIP: Cornal Hendricks
Why? Wasnt he diagnose with heart sickness while playing rugby? He didnt pass his medicals when trying to get a contract at the Stormers if I remember correctly. So the Bulls and Jake White decided otherwise.
He wouldn't have taken to the field if he wasn't cleared by doctors. Otherwise he ...

Re: RIP: Cornal Hendricks
Or his death. He shouldn't have played again.
That's a rancid comment.
He might have a point here? I don't know the specifics of this one but footballer Tom Lockyer had a heart attack on the pitch in Dec 23, forcing the game
to be abandoned. Yes he could have doid. Surprisingly to me (he's ...

I'm curious to know if any of the bored's Lions supporters have watched many of the Aussie Supe teams' games, and how you rate the quality of the opposiion players the tourists are likely to meet.

Re: 2024/2025 Not Heineken Cup
Well that was wider than I imagined. Toulouse with slight adv in the pack. UBB slightly ahead in the backs. But for me, there was a yawning gap at half backs and so went with UBB by a score.

Not the first time Ringrose has over-committed in defence. He frequently tops the missed tackle list because of it. His defenders will claim that it's because he's the "shooter" but I'm not convinced.
As for Leinster's decision to bench Barrett

Missed the games yesterday so only just seen highlights.
1) Well done Saints. Maybe sometimes the good guys (attractive rugby) can still win these days.
2) Would have paid good money to see the The Swarm's meltdown on Planet Jake.

Tinkered with underplays it - most of the old grounds are pretty much unrecognisable from 20 years ago. Exceptions if you’re looking at the Crumbie Terrace or the Shed but they’ve been deliberately kept. Bath next up for a near total redevelopment
Fair enough but those numbers seem highly ...
