Definitely agree probably as a unit the best pair!

You can’t totally blame Carley for that. It had a full review. It was a clear red card for me and I can’t understand on what basis it wasn’t given. Low danger?! He head butted him after the whistle.

It just shouldn't have gone to the bunker at all. He should have asked if it was after his ...

I thought it was, poor bastard had no idea at that moment just how low Wales were about to go!!

Currently sat in T2 at Heathrow on our way to Vietnam via Singapore - both the Men’s and Ladies sevens teams are on our plane on their way to Perth for the HSBC Sevens leg. They look very small and very young

That wasn’t even a penalty. There was no crock roll and both Scotland players hit the ruck straight on. I don’t understand that at all.

I am glad someone else thought tha, the most mystifying bit about it though is how someone thought after endless reviews it needed to be upgraded to red. I ...

Are they supposed to know the names of the 24th-46th most talented players in NZ?
Indeed, you usually leave that to the IRFU scouts

It would be better if Israel stopped killing it's neighbours while screaming

'it's self defense, they said bad things'.

That would be better.

My daughter went yesterday, she said she'd never go again. I've never been, never remotely been tempted to

I went once, what's to like? It's a zoo and a dangerous one at that.

A 15-year-old has been arrested "in connection with the attack"

Asked about reports that the attacker targeted victims' throats, police say yes, attacks were "very targeted" at people's throats and necks.

They have found "multiple knives" and are attempting to determine whether one of them was ...

Well done Lydia Koh she finished off with a birdie to take gold for NZ

I reckon the German golfer might take Gold -8 in the clubhouse -9 leading but NZ lady having serious wobble

Did I hear that correctly? The commentator seemed to be suggesting that Chebiot(sp?) the winner of the 5k&10K ran the last 600m in the 5K faster than Keely did in the 800!! surely that can't be true

France is way underperforming for having the games at home, if you deduct Leon Marchand 4 gold in swimming, the rest has been crap (beside Rugby7 :angel:)

That's a brilliant stat that she was a couple tenths of running quick enough to make the 400m final.

She is absolutely smoking too!! As is the US Heptathlete Hall.

Dunno why the cops don’t have pepper spray canisters they can use to drive these guys back when they storm the police lines…….. :???:

In rugby terms of a "Rugby incident", I'd call this a "Human incident".

I can't expect someone's thinking to be absolutely crystal clear after being attacked like that. Do I like to see someone who is clearly down being booted and stomped to the head? No, I don't. But do I understand the pressure ...

Does the IOC even have their own set of rules in place? All i can see is they supply advice, that is very "inclusive", to other sporting bodies

Fucking BBC doesn't even mention what the issue is, just that he failed eligibility rules. pathetic.

Gone for men. Women still have them for some reason

Headgear increases the risk of concussion but reduces cuts and broken noses. So it’s basically optics that we don’t want to see women boxers covered in blood

Just finished Those who are about to die. On amazon prime, quite enjoyable, some good tense situations. Very few "Good guys" and definitely enjoyed the feeling of never being 100% sure who was going to win out and how etc.
