When asked about the pair signing for the club, Gloucester head coach George Skivington said: โ€œWhen things are all sorted with people in discussions & everybody is happy with what is being said, I am very happy to talk about it.โ€

โ€œBut at the moment it is not right to talk about it.โ€ Harry Tovey

"Mike's on his phone, Mike couldn't care less. It makes me want to cry"

Ooof.

This is an absolute dick move.

Shut up and take your medicine. Show some fucking humility and remorse.

If the disciplinary committee had anything about them then they'd be hauling him back in for this. But they won't, of course. And the game continues to be a laughing stock.

Didn't occur to anyone with the increase in food poisoning these days that it might not be the way it's cooked by these pubs but the fact that nobody has the bacterial resistance anymore to the things that have always existed, you're just not able to fight it off now like you normally would have?

#COVID19 infection may affect the eyes.

The blood-retinal barrier normally functions like an invisible protective wall, preventing pathogens from entering the delicate retina from the bloodstream. Researchers discovered that #SARSCoV2 can overcome this crucial barrier, reports PLOS Pathogens.

When I visited the magnificent Glasnevin Cemetery in Dublin, their visitor centre had a great exhibition, including a vivid life size depiction of how people robbed graves. Very instructional!

Yeah cos the health and wellbeing of players ain't something World Cup should be thinking about is it? Just welcome the addition without moaning about more ads. Rather the players ain't running themselves into the ground personally.

Temporary solution for a decades long problem. Complete culture change needed worldwide. Still seen as an issue alongside rugby instead of an existential threat to the existence of both codes of the sport. Disappointing that Kristian Woolf escaped accountability for not refusing to play him also.

Worrying stats from a recent survey of over 500 NRL players by the RLPA. It showed 1 in 3 players didnโ€™t report #concussion symptoms they had experienced at training, while 2 in 3 players continued to train after suffering a suspected concussion. Becoming an increasing trend in recent years.

The Foo Fightersโ€™ AIDS denialism should be on the record By Martin McKenzie-Murray in The Monthly

I'll give you the short version: they sponsored & supported the most influential AIDS denialist group of the 2000's, resulting in national policies in South Africa that caused an estimated 330,000 deaths there.

They have never apologized or acknowledged what they did.

Grohl said "Iโ€™ve always believed that AIDS is Godโ€™s punishment to gays and drug users for doing things that are just morally wrong"

And they have never, ever apologised. In case you were thinking of still buying/streaming their music.
