Who is the next cab off the democrat rank behind Biden? Is it Harris? Sadly, I could see her being quite a polarising candidate. As I’ve said before the Dems have getting for 300 members of Congress and state governors and Biden is the pick of the bunch? Only 2 governors might have a chance, Gavin ...

Elections are in a year and a half, hoping it’s a strategy not his ego. Let the naz party tears itself apart while the Dems show a united front, then Joe pass the buck.
I know one can always dream.

Your should have aced this one for the second try.

I kind of like the idea behind saving time but 20 minute red cards a nonsense and got roundly voted down by the non sanzar nations. So that bit definitely won't be there. Only other issue is TMO being sole judge of red cards, with current system, a team of 4 officials watches the incident and discu...

Just back from the US (mid West). No masks in day to day life but quite a few in airports and planes as you would expect. Same in the Nord East and Mid Atlantic, it still mandatory in hospitals and Doctors offices. Mainly older people are wearing masks in the stores (1/3 of them) My state of 6M peo...

Which UK channel to watch the Leinster/ Leicester game ?

I used to play with and against players who grab the short or the balls of the jumper in the line out, of course it wasn’t professional.

They really need to bring in the 20 minute thingy and deal with the incident after the game.

In this type of case absolutely, but not when a player has to get out for concussion or on a stretcher.

Stormers must sort out their cheap arse planning. Still in Cape Town and facing a long haul to get north......again. :lol: $hark$ The Sharks departed Durban on Tuesday morning to make the short flight to Johannesburg. From there, the squad would be split into two groups and travel economy class to ...

There was clear mitigation. No idea why Joy didn't point it out. Made for a cracking game though. Really feel for Montpellier. Dug deep to get the draw and then had it all but won only to have it grasped from their hands at the death. What's the clear mitigation? Low level of danger. He was standin...

Gloucester is a nice team to watch, too bad they don’t have a good FH now. Teddy might score tries every other games, but he’s such a reliability in defense. Do you perhaps mean liability, Mandy? Reliable in defense would mean you can trust him there. Lol , it’s what I meant ( I was thinking not re...

Rugby's not a sport that can survive having to check every incident because someone's made a massive meal of it, and right now with the focus on safety & having stringent punishment, having players attempt to warp the views of the officials by overreacting risks undermining the entire thing. Li...

Ireland.19 England 21( day after St Patrick)
France. 37 Wales 13
Scotland 33 Italy 15

I've just done a very quick calculation in my head based on Bolt's record of 9.54 seconds v Thom Evans' best of 11.2. Evans was no slouch, but I think he'd be at least 15m behind Bolt in a length of the pitch race. Best French winger was a bit faster at 10 s 34 (Sébastien Carat) still around 8 m be...

Italy………17.- Wales. 23
England 19 - France 24 (I really think it’ll be the other way)
Scotland 21- Ireland 27

Lol, I beg to differ. https://static.act/2023/02/jelonchouille.gif That's not the first tackle to which I referred, ie off the first kick off, that is the second one. Elsewhere on the bored I said that there could easily have been two cards for the incident in your post A yellow and red would have ...

Just fuck off el frog, tell us where we/I did it, you are doing much worse than us with your displays of bravado.

https://i.imgur.com/9zBT6Gz.png That’s the first tackle, isn’t it? What happened there was that Gilchrist hit Jelonch at the top of the chest, Jelonch’s head swings forward and his cheek contacts the back of Gilchrist’s upper arm, it was the momentum of the tackle that causes that contact I’d back ...

Von der Leyen says, as soon as the deal is agreed, the EU will begin the process of admitting the UK into the Horizon programme. That is good news for researchers, she says
That's a positive!

Yep, as I said before in this thread, this was a perfect example of a lose/lose situation .

Looks like a deal has being reached regarding the NIP.

Bernol has gone to town on this saying a serious injury was inevitable with the stupid amount of game time in T14. I think it was the same article in RR where Giroud said that if the WC was next year, he’ll be very worried about Antoine, I guess this is valid for most of the EDF guys. As for Ntamak...

These reviews are right on the spot. Sadly, I think Moefana isn’t going to improve. Romain Ntamack – 5,5 : Le + : Décisif sur les deux premier essais des Bleus. D’abord à la conclusion (5e), puis à la passe pour Dumortier (10e). Il avait très bien débuté son match. Mais n’a pas forcément eu les écla...

Galthié’ Que vous inspire le carton rouge de Mohamed Haouas ? J'ai envie de vous dire que le geste est une position défensive très dure à tenir. Quand on défend la ligne d'en-but, tous les avants en bascule avant pour dominer la collision. Ce qu'il a fait, sauf que le demi de mêlée s'est baissé auss...

Moral victory for Wales will be a 20 point loss.

No worries, I for one will be supporting you whenever you play England.

Not surprising that some players are completely burned.

Phew

I don’t recall anyone complaining about this in November

I knew it was over when Galthié took Ramos out to be replaced by Jalibert, first he’s not a FB and tackles are not his forte, 2 it also meant that Ntamak was going to stay FH. Defense was top but didn’t see anything in offense that showed progress as a team, and it’s worrisome. Dupont was incredible...
