Don't think the maul has been that great. Only the third one looked like anything/went anywhere and Hartley got turned over off of it because it almost spun out into touch. Wales getting away with a lot but have England under all kinds of pressure. England is hurting them in the scrum but...

Jenkins v. Coles will be huge for this one as well, forgot Coles was healthy for a minute there.

It's sort of like a Motorcycle going 60mph and a Hummer going 45mph and the relative damage they cause on impact. The Hummer also has a turbo booster that kicks off right before contact. Caught the first 17 or so minutes of the trial, good match and great commentary so far! McDuling has some...

Wales should sneak it, at least. England will struggle to front up to this Welsh team physically with their current injuries and haven't shown enough attacking organization or "flair" to make me think for a second they'll be bamboozling the Welsh at the attacking seams as they appear. As a...

This. We jockey instead of shooting the vast majority of the time now. It's conservative defense at it's finest. Could work with a Gill/Thompson fetching duo and some decent sized boots in the backline now. **Yet to watch 'Saders trial. Literally about to start now**

Yeah, at the end of matches when one comes off the bench one occasion.

To be fair Biarritz played a style of rugby at the time that didn't exactly facilitate the 10 influencing the game with any real ball-playing. Up the middle, draw a penalty, let Yachvilli kick - rinse and repeat. His kicking was quite good in the semi against Munster when he played 10 (not...

Thomson is 6'5" and Schatz/Browning are both 6'3". Gilly is 6'1" but that's not exactly weird for an openside. I think we're good.

Stade has been gunning for Sanchez for fucking ages so it's hardly a surprise if that's where he ends up. There was just no way Bath was going to be able to afford him without breaking the salary cap that half the UK is pretty sure they've already broken.

Trust me mate, I feel the same. Unfortunately, Gilly is a whole lot more useful when he's actually on the field. Your post actually did make me laugh out loud though :D

@Gel I think Tomikin was referring to JOC (James O'Connor), not Duncan.

Rewatching the first few minutes of the match right now while I take a break from working to eat something and I've noticed a couple of things. Duncan was being hidden at hooker on defensive lineouts, or at least the handful that I saw. He put on some pretty big hits playing NRL U20s (yes, I'm...

Backs defense made Mike Harris look like Joe Rokocoko out there at times. Lots of opportunities on attack blown at the last second by stuff like knock ons, etc. Need to rewatch the stream - looks like they're keeping it up.

Yeah, JOC (James O'Connor)'s out until the Crusader's trial - probably just managing his workload if anything.

Scoey, I was a bit concerned by our obvious lack of depth at 10 going into the season - but can you really blame the recruitment staff? I'm struggling to think of any quality backup 10s that are, or were on the market that wouldn't have cost quite a bit for a guy who was going to get very few...

Certainly they've got to play at least one of the trials somewhere in Queensland, though? Not like they can do a whole lot about the rain either.

Tight five players never age, they just get fatter. Some forward, somewhere - probably Pfitzy

Another classic from Flatman during the Racing v. Saints match: Just wait for it..

Another? We're damn near there mate, the fun is just getting started!

If Richard plays JOC (James O'Connor) at 10 the aneurysm I'm going to have will stain the white side of my scarf.
