Having just checked the online odds.
I reckon I'm gonna break the habit of a lifetime & watch the puffball tonight.

Apparently England will hammer Wales? 🤔

Watching the England mens team win something, is always a special occasion 😉

I'm gonna watch it too. Can't be any worse than the rugby last weekend.

One of the most boring 50 mins in sporting history!
So much for England thrashing Wales.

Not sure that I can stomach the second half? 🤔

England v The Sweaties was a great game (even taking into account the disappointing result 🙁)
I'm pretty sure 3 Scotland wins in a row in the Calcutta Cup is a first?

If you get any shit about how well their rugby team did.
Remind them how absolutely f#cked their country is under the SNP.
A once proud nation lead by woke idiots. Even more so than the rest of the UK 🙁

The ones with a brain know that, unfortunately brains are in short supply in native jocks mainly around the central belt

Italy v France tomorrow.
I want both of the cowardly pasta/cheese eating surrender monkeys to lose!

Might watch it in the pub accompanied by a nice Sunday lunch & a couple of beers? 😋

I didn't watch the game but the score was waaaaay closer than I'd have predicted...

Did Italy break the habit of a lifetime & play well? Or were France really shite?

I see that sour chariot swung low again 🫣

Wasn't sure how well you had all taken it 😬

My diagnosis is that reliance on Old War Horses was compounded by bizarre England substitutions. The difference was ultimately in the will to win and a few key play makers. England need fresh blood and soon. Wales are looking a bit the same way.

This was reflected in the France Italy game where Italy seem to have found a few special talents around which to build a very much better side. France? A few absent injuries and the C Team turned up but the D Team played.

Judging by the amount of noise deliberately being made during kicks. It looks like the Taffs have taken over from the Jocks in terms of poor sportsmanship when playing England 😒

London Irish: Premiership club served winding-up petition by HMRC

Cash-strapped Premiership club London Irish are served a winding-up petition by HM Revenue & Customs over an unpaid tax bill.

If they go down the pan, It'll please Northampton Saints.
As they often struggle against London Irish.

It won't please me, as they aren't the first club to get into difficulty, and probably won't be the last.
