I know it’s silly of me but I can’t really help it. You know I don’t really invemt all this stuff; I really don’t. This is brief. I heard that Al Caravelli of the USA Sevens program got the axe, I have no axe to grind with that decision. IMHO he has done enough damage to the program and I do not even know the fellow. Just out of his depth. Period. Someone new can [...]
Funny….unrelated but the USA names a coach that almost rhymes with token. Actually that is a damned good way to remember him, poor chap. I do hope he fares well in the big leagues of professional rugby. Tough task I should think. Speaking of tokens, Stuart Lancaster was a token…the RFU wanted to prove a point. That point is that the playing fields are level. Might have gone with Guscott but I suppose he didn’t [...]
I have just read on Planetrugby in their 6N team of weekend that Farrell beat out Sexton. That is dreadful Let’s pick our worst of the weekend. 15. Ben Foden 14. Sean Lamont 13. Aurelien Rougerie 12. Gordon D’Arcy 11. Julien Malzieu 10. Francois Trinh Duc 9. Mike Phillips 8. Imanol Harinordoquy 7. Chris Robshaw 6. Put in an Irishman, any of the three. 5. Donncha O’Callaghan 4. Alistair Kellock 3. Geoff Cross 2. Rory [...]
I’m totally unfit for rugby union because there was not a fucking brave aspect about Scotland today. Andy Robinson should be sacked now. Can you imagine a professional athlete not playing on a Sunday. Solve that problem. Replace him with a piddling journeyman tighthead in Cross and replace him with another absolute Cambridge educated rugbyfailure in Kalman and is it a wonder that Kellock was dropped as Captain before his inclusion in the 2011 RWC….talk,talk,talk…embarassment [...]
That’s because there isn’t anything here worth discovering. I’m out but I can take some solace in the fact that as I am flushed down the toilet so goes Lancaster and team. Pitiful performance because no game plan was in place, poor discipline and Manu Tuilagi isn’t fit. Had he been so for the full eighty I wouldn’t be here plucking my head out of arse. Only one possibility now. It won’t save Lancaster and [...]
