    Orders from Paddy O'B.

    The memo to the refs about what they're to do when reffing the RWC. Makes interesting reading. http://www.scrrs.net/updates/irb-memo-areas-of-emphasis-for-the-2011-rugby-world-cup-referees/

    New concussion regulations

    Asked this on another thread, but I'm looking for an answer, so I'll repeat it here: given that the concussion regs came in over a month ago, and that the Boksmart program in SA and Rugbysmart program in NZ mean that at least two of the 3N teams should be well used to them - are they being...

    Lads, help needed.

    You know that line about - I think - Matt Dunning? To the effect that he was looking determined, but he had to more than that, he had to push? Can anyone give me the accurate line, and who said it, please?

    Munster v. Australia

    16th November, 2010, Thomond Park. You heard it here first. Well, first after the ten year ticket holders were told, but you know what I mean. We decided we'd give ye a chance to get your revenge after the last outing. ;)

    Interesting interview with him here: http://www.independent.ie/sport/rugby/autumn-internationals/irish-rich-on-smal-change-1937197.html Fascinated to see that Kimberley and Potch are now under the Tin Ear jackboot, mind... ;)

    Wales-Samoa game - Tsunami Benefit

    Some of the bois [sic] on Gwlad came up with the idea of making the Wales-Samoa EOYT a tsunami relief benefit. It's a perfect idea, and the perfect way to go about it. So, to ask the WRU to do so, please go here http://www.petitiononline.com/19911999/petition.html and sign up. And spread...

    Bryce Lawrence's account.

    Or accounts. Because there's a bit of a difference, on the evidence. From the citing hearing: Now, here's what the bould Bryce said at the time: "I could see it clearly, clearly fingers in the eyes. Six green" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X__kjEjTNro It's from 0:39 on. He said at the...

    Munster v. Sale

    Attention, cockfags! Some of the highlights here. Missing the full intensity of it - the second try in particular is shortened, so you don't get to see just how beautiful a piece of rugby it was. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7gXgZ8kA3c

    Bit of help/advice...

    The future brother-in-law, Ms. T78's brother, is going on an OE, a large chunk of which is apparently going to be spent in Seeeeeedneeeeeee and environs. She lived there for two years, so she has a fair grasp of it, but any advice/help for him with regard to Botany Bay City would be greatly...

    The Griwi...

    ... Has lost it. Big-time. It's in his latest piece of lunacy on The Roar. Now, most of it is just proof that the NH journos can wind him up like naughty kids teasing a mad dog on a chain. But this bit; :nta: I'll pass over the fact that on a regular basis, he appears to think that the...

    Tana's Mercenaries v. Les Pedales du Stade

    C'est magnifique - et c'est la guerre! http://www.dailymotion.com/video/k7bBN32ctDsHyFLudE Brilliant scrap. Best things about it, for mine, are: at about 0:30, the guy with the scrum cap gets up, doesn't even think, runs swinging straight to the nearest scrap; at 1:00 or so, when it ends...
