‘I’m the best there is, the best there was, the best there ever will be’. The Edinburgh Belgium English hero is a welcome introduction to the squad.

Great to see @archiewi back on a playing field. The best looking, graceful and nicest 12 to ever play in the forwards.

Flares are being put on ice. We get Gilbert’s and @Bapps98 is dropped

Hi @EdinburghAccies is the strawberry blonde Messi of Stockbridge returning next season?

Now that my Rugby ASBO is over I better start my pre-season training. June supplement have arrived direct from my sponsor.

Much been happening? What have I missed

A great win for the Tways at Newfield today. Inspired performance from these two, one fighting through injury and the other fighting sun burn. Mr Miyagi and Daniel San @JJonesx2 and @Bapps98

No it’s not April the 1st, yes this is @Bapps98 in a gymnasium. Thanks to @JJonesx2 for catching this phenomena

@EdinburghAccies @hugh_barrow @GlasgowAccies Was John Wright playing that day?

Edinburgh and Glasgow Academicals first played each other 151 years ago in January 1872. On Saturday the two clubs meet again for the first time in over 25 years. Kick off 2.30 at Raeburn Place. @hugh_barrow @GlasgowAccies

City Slickers vs The Highlanders. It’s looking like a wet one today so that means lots of old school 8 man rugby. 60m pick and goes will have the crowd on their feet.

Also a congratulations to our favourite strawberry blond @Will_Stephen_10 on his recent engagement. Save the money on sending out our wedding invites mate, we’re coming anyway. Any chance you could fire up some pictures of the bridesmaids in advance?

In a match of three three quarters. We don’t know the score, we don’t know who scored, we just know rugby was played. Our man of the match goes to @ComelyBnkBandit for his hard runs, hard tackles and saving Jamie Loomes blushes every time he got stepped. Cheers for the £10.

Loving the new @Scotlandteam refs costume for this season. Must be a plan to keep the props quiet by making them feel hungry.

We caught up with @berti to get a lengthy answer on his views of the coming season. ‘Buzzing’ was all we got from him, take that as you will.

Typical scrum half chat. Welcome to the fold Paddy, you’ll fit in well.

@EdinburghAccies @GHArugby @Scotlandteam Is @RoscoYng having a run out?

An absolute feast of rugby at Raeburn Place this August with three home friendlies over the next three weeks. First up is Glasgow Hutchesons' Aloysians (GHA) on Saturday 12th. KO 3 pm. Please come down to support all the players if you can. Fra v Sco on big screen at 8.
