My take on rugby. I'm battered. My body is broken. The concussion risks are stark. But I want my kids to play the game I love. And the thought of life without rugby petrifies me. Article (and cute photos of my kids) here - telegraph.co.uk/health-fitness…

@AJ_Journo My god it all feels brighter than it has done for a while, hasn't it?

@GD10 🤣🤣 Byrne would be so good to have back Lewis Edwards was on the end of a bunch of Lee Byrne comparisons on the weekend. Will be a good one to keep an eye on

I'd like to preface, if I've left someone out. I've either - Forgotten - Ran out of characters

@AJ_Journo He had the best game I've seen him have against Scotland, tbf. But that if in your sentence is doing a fair bit of heavy lifting at present! Yea, the escorts law change seems to have hit us particularly hard. How old is Lee Byrne?

@GD10 I genuienly believe Plumtree would be elite if he cut out the errors/penalty count. It's an easy fix so he's gonna be there. Winnett could be our answer at 15, but I worry he's not as solid in the air as others

@bennej0 @cricketstance My man.

@cricketstance Ben Stokes is overrated

Give me a Cricket opinion that will leave people looking like this… 👇🏻

16 years ago to the day, I witnessed the best try I’ve ever seen live. Best seat in the house. No more than 10 yards from the ball, but never touched it. Worcester Uni defending a 5m Birmingham Uni scrum in the BUSA Premiership B. Trailing by 3. And then this. The Try™️©

@AbraNavet @jim_demps Yea, I was mad excited about him. Serious talent.

@GD10 @jim_demps I am certain Grace would have done very well if he hadn’t snapped his achilles twice tbf

Is the high level rugby league convert not a thing in the NH anymore? Lads like Burgess, Carney, Robinson, Bentley etc etc. Seems like teams aren’t taking a punt anymore. Anyway, Munster should have a sniff at Cameron Munster just to prove me wrong

@QuimbyMajor Can you send me the Homer Simpson into the bush meme pls?

@GD10 I remember when this account was primarily based around Italy being removed from the six nations

Wow. Wow. Wow. Mann’s the man.

@timcarter1202 Thanks Tim. Likewise, my man.

@GD10 Nice one. Enjoy, onto the next one.

@Stuhendo96 @RJDhowzat They have countless world class replacements. We don’t.

@GD10 @RJDhowzat I would rather switch to fresh prop! International rugby is a lot faster than domestic. SA have mastered this approach and who are we to say it’s wrong they on for the threePeak

These data-led, pre-planned substitutions in rugby drive me insane. Carre, Wales’s biggest threat, dragged off on 44 minutes. Alex Mann made 22 tackles in the first half alone, and he’s (rightly) still on. Dumb stuff. Professional athletes can last 80.

@timcarter1202 Won 20-19 in a real arm wrestle. Didn’t play well, but we got the job done! Onwards!

@GD10 How did you get on?

@MattSouth7 @MartGillingham That’s a cracker. Adams, who’s become Wales’ latest Alext Cuthbert figure, speaks brilliantly and comes across really well.

This is well worth 5 minutes of your time. An engaging, brilliant piece. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏉

@epaez11 👀🔥

@GD10 Next Newcastle RedBulls winger!

@MeatBadness Totally with you.

@GD10 He didn't cover himself in glory in the first half either. No idea why he gets these games. The amount of dead air on ITV because heaven forbid they criticise the ref.

Karl Dickson decides not to send an Irish player to the bin despite five or six cynical penalties in the red zone. Wales’s first one, Ireland score, and we lose our best player to the bin. Quelle surprise. Dreadful.

@CliftonvilleRd You still going?

@GD10 After winning the game and the 6 nations in such a fashion, against all the odds and with the obvious deficiencies of his country, they really should give him the trophy to keep. What a winner, unparalleled in the entire history of world rugby.

@pickess1 Agree with you. Miles ahead of where we were even four weeks ago. Really pleasing to see. Actually enjoyable to watch again.

@GD10 On the positive side Wales defence was superb and they are looking a much better, stronger side. Not long before a win.

@HewanMcCarthy @CliftonvilleRd innit?

@CliftonvilleRd @GD10 How have you read that tweet and taken it so personal?

@bummymcbumface Show me a good loser and I'll show you a loser.

@GD10 Stop crying over the refs ffs , bad loser or what, wasn't that when you got all the decisions when Gatland was in charge

@timcarter1202 Atta boy, Tim. Andover at home for me today, hoping to cement our spot at the top.

@GD10 Nearly, oppo pulled out mid week. Hopefully got another game in a few weeks.
