Wales will still get further than Ireland in the next world cup. Great result for Georgia all of the same.

 

First weekend I havent had a chance to watch any of it. Is the England All Blacks match reflecting the score?

Rugby league televised terra channels…normal every day joe bloggs,can follow it,and see theirkids get interested. From Wheelchair,both men & women,plus the

two classics of men’s women’s games..

 

Rugby Union….Autumn fixture,,nowhere to be found no parents,no kids interest

                          Possible…200 channels,no interest in a major sport..

                          Was there Internatinal Union games this weekend…??

Quite pathetic,no access to terra channels ,only extra money channels..!,

It's all part of the master plan. 

 

What you're witnessing is the greatest pre world cup hustle in history. 


 

to be fair, any country that translates cappuccino as this has definitely got a few tricks up their sleeve..

Owen Farrell is the rugby team's Mason Mount.

I wouldn't go that far, i just think that him & Smith as 10/12 but both trying to orchestrate well more so Farrell from 12 doesn't work.

He's a big lad & not shy of a tackle but is he a specialist centre, no, & he's keeping the likes of Slade, Porter, Marchant, Joseph, Lawrence, Lozowski, to name a few all ball playing centres & all blessed with a turn of pace but Jones is fixated with Farrell almost shackling Smith & then having this bruiser style beat them up attitude of pairing with Manu which in the main slows our forward play dow, we very rarely see centres cutting through like we see with other teams both International & Club except late in the game after the likes of slade are brought on, even Manu when he breaks its just as part of a battering ram approach not a skip round 2 or 3 players but to draw a pen in kicking range.

The other thing with having both Smith & Farrell on together is that you can't change it from the side, how often do we see a change at 9 make an instant difference to the way the game then plays out & mainly because (other than being fresh) is that the bench 9 has seen what's going on, where the holes are, who's strugling in the scrum etc etc imagine if we had 1 of our orchastrators watching from the side ready to come on & completely change the plan the opposition wouldn't know what to do for a period which could be the difference, currenly its to samey & we can't change an approach during the game once the oppo's have got us thumbed down.

Mason Mount wishes he had Farrell's trophy cabinet or record points totals. Guy had the second most points and third most points per game in English rugby history. I mean, he ain't shit is he. 

 

Weird to me how he's gone from being drastically over rated to criminally under rated in the space of like 18 months or however long its been since Marcus Smith got out of Huggies.

Hope all is well and this guy turns up somewhere ..

 

Sounds very ominous though .

Similar to Levi Davi’s ex-Bath player that went missing on 29th Oct in Barcelona, his passport was found in mid November and possible sightings but nothing confirmed.

Looks like he was battling his own demons, there was a lot going on his life released by Bath, suffering from anxiety, depression and alcoholism as well as coming out as bi-sexual whilst still playing and the pressure he probably felt hiding & announcing that.

 

Hope the kids safe and he makes contact with his love ones very soon.
