Scrums; the only area of the game you get a yellow card for just being worse than your opposite number

Literal head contact on Josh; penalty

Being a young prop bested by a double WC winner; yellow card

I'm naming the Harry Byrne (Better Byrne) and Fintan Gunne combo

BB Gunne

That will be all for today

As a craft beer fan I’m used to the high prices, but today a local pub was charging £7.50 for a can of Guinness 0.0%. 😳

I can’t wait until next week when the mighty Zebre beat Stormers and take the lineal URC heavyweight title from them. Then the following week Leinster can snatch it back from Zebre

After three games, the Ospreys are the only team to have scored points against the Stormers so far this season, despite them also facing Leinster and a backline "everyone in Europe is afraid of". We are fucking massive lads.

Absolutely so do I. There's a clear plan, the most massive clean-out coming and doubtless marquee signings.

Meantime I suspect the current crop know that and it's difficult to get anything going

I think that's smart. Beyond not sign anyone, all they could do this year was sign people who were available, i.e. not many, and hope they'd be capable enough to grab wins and build momentum.

I get regular emails as they're my local club.

Literally the last 14 players to sign, whether staying or new, are all on one year contracts

And we are now a laughing stock instead of plucky underdogs.

People will take the piss because they are punching up

Big problem for Newcastle is that they got the cash too late to compete this season but it is a very very long season and if they're this bad for the whole season then you can sense the joy will ebb away.

Remember, they have lost Blamire, Chick, and Radwan from last season.

There are young Welsh cricketers now reporting "losing by a rugby score" after heavy losses.

I wonder how many shares Ross and Harry Byrne have in Ryanair

The ordeal with that cancelled flight fiasco to Connacht last week has clearly really taken it out of the lads. I really hope we sue the shit out of the stranded Ryanair passengers who tried to make it difficult for us to leave the flight before take off. This result is on them.

Edward Jenkins @edjenx.bsky.social · 22h

Not ideal, if we're honest.

Premiership Derby Weekend!

What are your most memorable derby moments?

Finn Russell Shushing the Shed?

Toby Flood scoring a late winner against Sale?

Dylan Hartley getting sent off in the Premiership final for swearing at the ref or Tom Youngs?

It seems he said that it's harder to win the 6N because there's only 5 games, so you have to win them all to claim the title, whereas it's possible to lose a pool game & still win the RWC. But that's pretty rare, while ~50% of 6N winners don't get the grand slam, so it's just flawed logic all round.

Every time someone offers me something that AI can supposedly do for me, I have to remind them that that's just what my brain does. I was hired because of what my brain can do. Don't hire me to do it and then ask me to use AI to do it for me.

The writers' room is one of the cheapest parts of TV production. It does not make sense to economize in this way.
