Stone dead, all day long ref, and twice on Sundays... Could have been horrible.

Christ. Just watching the highlights of Bristol's game at the weekend...Semi Radradra is something else. The thought of him and Charles Piatau trying to out-superstar each other is worrying.
Ollie Griffiths has picked up a hamstring injury...FFS.
I could do with a bit of good news - signing Bateman or Rowlands (or both) would help.

Was just popping in to ask if any of you had heard anything on Rowlands. I'd love for him to stay at Wasps, but can't blame him for wanting to play international rugby if he can.penguin wrote: ↑Tue Aug 25, 2020 12:53 pm Christ.

Give a man a fire and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
You're guess is as good as mine...there used to be a couple of people (Paul in particular) who used to be good for the inside knowledge on the old bored, but not sure where they ended up.Raggs wrote: ↑Tue Aug 25, 2020 1:13 pmWas just popping in to ask if any of you had heard anything on Rowlands.

Paul_ still pops up on the bored. Have you kicked that 1 into touch Penguin?penguin wrote: ↑Tue Aug 25, 2020 1:36 pmYou're guess is as good as mine...there used to be a couple of people (Paul in particular) who used to be good for the inside knowledge on the old bored, but not sure where they ended up.Raggs wrote: ↑Tue Aug 25, 2020 1:13 pmWas just popping in to ask if any of you had heard anything on Rowlands.

That's a bummer, Dragons could have been competitive otherwise, it's not really a game now. Ah well, look forward to next season now.penguin wrote: ↑Tue Aug 25, 2020 12:53 pm Christ.

We'll see how things settle down once rugby has been back properly for a bit...but I prefer this bored for interface. No point being on the best interface if no buggers here, so we'll see.frodder wrote: ↑Tue Aug 25, 2020 1:48 pmPaul_ still pops up on the bored. Have you kicked that 1 into touch Penguin?
Played rugby with him at school, he went on to play For Welsh youth 1970 - 71. And Bedwas rfc for many years. Formed his own company and did quite well, just an all round good bloke really.
I see Keiron Assiratti has gone to Bristol on a short term loan deal...could be good for everyone that. Chance for him to see a different environment, and a high quality one at that, hopefully get some game time in a competitive league, that should kick his progress on.
Yeah. always useful to have a prop in a highly competitive environment especially in the English league which focuses on the forwards.penguin wrote: ↑Thu Aug 27, 2020 12:01 pm I see Keiron Assiratti has gone to Bristol on a short term loan deal...could be good for everyone that.

Interesting selections here - that is a young front 5. Dee and Screech but Reynolds and Coleman with Max Williams in the second row. Happy to see them get starts just a little concerned about all 3 at the same time. Great looking backrow, like the midfield combination, and look forward to seeing Rosser again who I don't think has had the plaudits he's deserved for how good he's been. Would have liked to have seen Holmes at 15 rather than Talbot-Davies...but still, lots of good young players on show. Looking forward to seeing how they go.Dragons (v Scarlets Rugby): Will Talbot-Davies, Jared Rosser, Adam Warren, Nick Tompkins, Ashton Hewitt, Sam Davies, Rhodri Williams (c); Josh Reynolds, Elliot Dee, Chris Coleman, Max Williams, Matthew Screech, Aaron Wainwright, Taine Basham, Harrison Keddie
Replacements: Ellis Shipp, Conor Maguire, Leon Brown, Joe Maksymiw, Huw Taylor, Luke Baldwin, Arwel Robson, Jack Dixon
Scarlets: Angus O'Brien; Johnny McNicholl, Steff Hughes, Johnny Williams, Steff Evans; Dan Jones, Kieran Hardy; Wyn Jones, Ken Owens (capt), Samson Lee, Jake Ball, Lewis Rawlins, Ed Kennedy, James Davies, Sione Kalamafoni.
Replacements: Ryan Elias, Phil Price, Javan Sebastian, Josh Helps, Josh Macleod, Dane Blacker, Paul Asquith, Tom Rogers.
Strange selection, looks like they're giving people a game before Europe comes around, we're out of the play-offs so it doesn't matter that much I suppose.

It can't really effect our season so give them a go.penguin wrote: ↑Fri Aug 28, 2020 11:02 amInteresting selections here - that is a young front 5.

I wouldn't fancy two minutes of that, the bench isn't first choice mostly either, so it would be no suprise to see a couple of yellows off the front row. I've not seen anything of Maguire, so have no Idea how he'd go with Brown and Dee, if as I'd expect, they're summoned second half.
It always amazes me how the Scarlets seem to churn out fat kids that mature well, and we in Gwent, the Roider capital of South Wales, can't seem to mature props with any regularity. Must be a direct result of having a gash/no real academy for years. Although Coleg Gwent seems to do a decent job of late.
250 appearances for the Sheriff, remarkable in modern rugby considering he's an established international as well. Fair play to him.
I'm listening to it on BBC radio on the BBC sports site.
