See above for my opinion. The only +ve is I'm not Welsh.

Slick was yesterday at Murrayfield. I am jealous, look like a nice crowd and weather.

Apologies. Misread as addressed to me.

No worries Boet!

Got tired of impersonating my brother.

I miss him...

I miss my other brother, too.

It sounds like you may have lost them recently? I'm really sorry if that's the case. I love the pictures... the way you have brought them to life.

Sexy out for 6 weeks, with the sprained ankle from Saturday.

Assumption is Carbery will be our starter; but no word on who'll be on the bench

[Edit] Confirmed that Jack Carty has been called into the squad

Sorry, didn't mean to give the wrong impression - they're both still alive and kicking. Just haven't seen them for ages due to covid travel restrictions.

Well that's a happy'ish ending! Hope you get to see them soon...

Not sure if this has already been covered, but what was the reason for Watson being on the bench for Scotland? Surely he's the first name on the team sheet?

Very impressive NH tour so far....take my hat off to the lads.
ABs and Aussies not quite used to playing the NH sides so stumbling spectacularily...
Whereas we stumbled spectacularily when playing the ABs and Aussies.
Justification in a way for our regional teams results in the URC so far.
One last hurdle to complete....England. I really don't see this as being an issue to be honest.
England always flatter to deceive. Eddie talks a bigger game than the Poms deliver.

So far a pass mark for Rassie up north.
Rassie has always had a problem playing our SH neighbours.
His record at the Stormers against them was abysmal. I think his style is more suited to up north.
But it will be great to end the year on a high.
I suspect Willie will be back for the next match.
Nienaber did say that if it came to a final Willie would be his first choice.
I suspect our same team will run out that played against Scotland.

How poor have the ABs been this year...the Irish victory sort of throws a damper on our victory against them

Tell me Sards, What do you see in this image?

It's a picture of a glass of water that Fassi left on his kitchen counter when he left for the Boks, when he should have stayed at the Sharks instead and subsequently would have finished the glass of water.

We assume it was to get some bigger bodies on the pitch to try and compete with your power game. It was a daft decision. As you say he is consistently our best performer in the pack and has never taken a backwards step against any opponents including SA in the past. Toony got that one wrong IMO

It's not the vessel that counts but its content. Like with your head for instance.

Not sure if it came across on TV but The Mish got a great cheer when he came on. Poor Kinghorn who came on just before got polite applause.

A shit glass is a shit glass. If I don't like it leave it. Don't try force me. That glass looks like something my granny would have had

Yes, it was a very pointed cheer from everyone inside
