Munster kids absolutely cooking against that Argentina XV! Most enjoyable game of the day (so far)

Wasn't this for week 3, so last weekend?!. Still mad but not as unhinged as it might seem!

The abuse Gav Coombes is getting from the clueless 'who would you drop' brigade is boiling my blood. He's clearly not the type of 8 AF wants. Does not mean hes not a phenomenal player!

Brutal 2nd half unfortunately

In the arms park with the Cardiff supporting teens. Should be a cracking game (and better for my blood pressure than watching Munster)

Was at the Munster game in Gloucester tonight. First half front row got pulverised in the scrum. Second half team immeasurably better! Happy to report John Hodnett can still run through people all game long

I know it was a B team, playing in the rain, against a weaker opposition, but from the stats its clear to see how Ireland are in the process of radically changing their game plan: going from being the meat grinder of 1,000 rucks to the samurai sword of 2 or 3

Question remains: does that suit them?

Drowning Doesnโ€™t Look Like Drowning Drowning is not the violent, splashing call for help that most people expect.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on.

XV - 10 different clubs are represented in our URC Team of the Season, including three players from champions Leinster, while Munster's Gavin Coombes was the top ranking player. Variety.

Phenomenal. Wonder what it must be like as a fan not having to know where the nearest defibrillator is.

Local radio mashup?

Go on so I will.

Love this one. Looks as if she's wearing a covid mask and they're both on their phones

Even sales of those Henry hoovers took a dip ๐Ÿ˜‚

An accent I would never have imagined hearing - beautiful west of Ireland Irish that's also discernibly Ukrainian.

Uplifting and heart-breaking in equal measure.

Remember vividly as an Irish fan being at the 2019 Wales game,thought we would be nilled. Walked into a pub afterwards & they all sang 'Wooaoh, your Sextons so dire' at me to the tune of the Kings of Leon song..Miss Wales being competitive so much. 6 nations has lost a bit of its spark without them

Can't recommend this fella's content enough for the casual rugby fan. It's just so accessible. Took me from liking the game, but only knowing half of what's going on to really understanding and loving it. And all for less than the price of a packet of jellies a month!

Back from a brilliant weekend in Northampton. Epic game, great ground. Saints fans are class. Now, how to get to La Rochelle ๐Ÿค”

Whether you are Welsh or not, people in the UK need to be aware of Wales' treatment.

Oh absolutely, just worry about the msg keeping him there gives to those young players. We expect you to be rubbish so there's no point changing things up.

Heartbroken for Wales, rugby such an integral part of their DNA. Gats should go now, what's the point in stringing it out.
