Roses are red
Violets are blue
Let's turn on the TV

Does Jack Crowley owe Faz money or something?

Not having a pop at Ringer.... but I honestly did not even realize he was on the field until late in the second half.

Such an off day so so many guys who are normally all over everything.

Worth pointing out that the labour back benchers are also duly elected members of parliament in a representative democracy.

Here's my hot take.

Prendergast is the Irish pound shop Finn Russell.

Can do one or two mad as a box of frogs things, but absolutely not the guy you'd bet the house on.

Cowley on but Prendergoat stays at 10.

Like this isn't his fault, but could we try something different?

05.02.2026 21:20 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Yes. And retroactively make vollying illegal.

Yep.

Squidge was repeating a rumor that Faz is talking with Sarries.

May be nonsense, may have been regarding a post world cup move. But you'd wonder what happens if this tournament goes sideways.

It's all been downhill ever since Darren Cave's face didn't fit.

The Dublin hype machine are behind him, therefore no one can stand against him.

I'm three pints deep and have an 0800-1500 meeting tomorrow.

Deep joy

Nope. Absolutely not. I will die on this hill.

You don't plaster art work with company sponsorship.

They are ruining what they seek to exploit and diminishing the actual product.

@squidgerugby.bsky.social How do we mobilise against this abomination?

50% of the screen for a 20 second commercial, four times through the game???

I'd rather the half time break was made 90 seconds longer.

As I recently and rather vehemently explained to the novelist Will Self: the past is another country, they do things differently there.

Fewer things wind me up as easily as the Blue Media ℒ️ talking about Stockdale as if he's a massive defensive liability.

Like ffs this is an out dated talking point. Maybe talk a little about the prendergoat's defence?

I've no problem dying on this hill with you. Robbo reminds me of Neilly - absolute unashamed homers for Ulster and so nostalgic for me.

Front room of my childhood home, me and my Dad, '99 Heiniken cup run. Good times. This tune takes me right back.
