I don’t get why people think it wasn’t handball. He clearly uses his upper arm to pass the ball? What am I missing?

Us winning the euros last year would’ve been an insane heist. Outplayed by Slovakia and Switzerland in the knockouts. In fairness we deserved the Dutch win but the best team won the final, we couldn’t luck it through.

Joke isn’t it, what are they getting out of Rashid playing in this game?

Yeah rugby in the midlands is very different to down south. In fact when you take into account the sport in wales and its valley roots, and rugby league in the north, you could say it’s only really the south that gives it that posh vibe. therell be plenty of tweed in the Bath end on Saturday.

There’s 12 of them who are the epitome of ‘woke’, the nasty lot would love nothing less than seeing them sunk. Did you see Lindsey Graham’s threat, the maniac?

Will Israel sink Thunberg’s aid ship do we think? It might seem improbable but realistically who would stop them?

The batting is simply not deep enough in this format. Shan is also not Handscomb. Then take away our best two white ball bowlers in Rehan and Hull, it’s very very difficult. The fact we’re on 3 wins out of 5 is still very decent with the latter two still to come back. We’re sadly relying on one of Kimber or Budinger to go big each game and neither are consistently good enough for that.

Is this the best final since Wimbledon 2008?

Been to games of both teams over the last couple of seasons and one of the differences is that the match entertainment at tigers isn’t gimmicky. They give you a reason to get down early and leave a couple of hours after. It helps that one club have a board that’s trying and another that isn’t lol.

Tigers aren’t really a true reflection on the sport in general. Dan Cole is from Wigston, so was Martin Johnson. All the well known tigers legends are all from state school backgrounds. If you go down south, it’s a completely different situation. Most of Sale’s team yesterday too are either Saffa’s or Cheshire private school grads. Tigers and Gloucester are pretty much an exception in terms of having a less elitist background.

Tbf they scored 224 in the first game and still lost. How’s the pitch looking?

His game management has often been poor for us but his goal kicking amazing, whereas today was the complete opposite. Goal kicking was a shambles but I thought overall he was really good.

So we’ve had people at the county and the tigers setting off smoke bombs during the game, but if you did that at city you’d get a 3 year ban.

I’ve paid no interest the past few weeks, can someone please update me with what the hell is happening?

Trevaskis was 10 from 2 overs 🙀

Needs to seriously learn from that. Trevaskis having two overs in the bank on a slow wicket is nothing short of embarrassing.

Broomleys 3rd XI

11 from 4 needed 10 from 3 9 from 2 with a run out. 8 from 1 7 from 0 We clung on. Salisbury has bowled the over perfectly

Salsbury

What a disgrace, bowling Walker through and leaving Trevaskis with overs in hand. Lose and Kimber should be resigning.

Scriven 2-10 from 3, won us the game.

Richard Rae with a bit of Partridge then. “It sounded like it hit wood as it hit Cox in a tender spot”

The way it works, Italy are pretty much guaranteed a play off spot even if they don’t win their group due to the nations league. But yes they are crap and would probably lose to at least 8/10 European teams in a play off

Slowed them right down thankfully.

Should be taking the pace off the ball. Kimber needs to give himself an over.
