To Infinity & Beyond

@TightFive_Rugby Utter madness but clearly shouldered off the ball after he kicked it so should never have been allowed

I promise you’re not ready for this attempt to escape the goal area from Ilaisa Droasese…

@Murray_Kinsella Is this a different approach vs Ntamack? Obvs GR was never playing for Leinster this w/end 🤷🏼‍♂️

Garry Ringrose gets 3-game ban but can be reduced to two games with tackle school. Leinster game this weekend included so back for Italy on final Six Nations weekend.

@simonrug Will help but this is a long-term, slow-burn project - Wales need a Conor O’Shea type to build things from the ground up.

One other point. Matt Sherratt has some experience of crisis management. When he took over as Cardiff head coach in the summer of 2023, he had the grand total of eight players in training at the Arms Park amid the contract chaos in Welsh rugby.

@andyhowellsport @IrishRugby Not sure even a ridiculous salary would convince him tbh

Unless there’s a huge salary why would Simon Easterby leave @IrishRugby for Wales? He’s heading up a top 3 nation in world, loaded with world class talent, is a passionate Irishman, has short commute to Dublin & will probably succeed Andy Farrell

@Springboks @lospumas @allianz_stad @SanzarTRC @TicketmasterUK Hard to imagine a six nations game in South Africa or Argentina! Is this about growing the game or filling wallets? 🤷🏼‍♂️

The #Springboks and @lospumas are heading to the @allianz_stad in London for their @SanzarTRC clash in October 💂 Tickets available on Thursday from @TicketmasterUK 🎟 #ForeverGreenForeverGold

@TightFive_Rugby Big Q 👉🏼 who would want to come in to the current setup! Sherratt may be the best 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 can do at the moment. Hard to see many experienced coaches risking their reputations right now. Conor O’Shea pie in the sky but that’s the kind of person Wales rugby need to secure long term

It’s brutal for Gatland, not really sure anyone would’ve done much better given the current squad and state of Welsh rugby. Who can you bring in at the moment, long-term, that is better than Gatland? Franco Smith? Michael Cheika? Jamie Joseph? ROG? Will be interesting to see. #GuinnessM6N

"I got a fairly savage boo. It's one of the biggest compliments of my career" - Peter O'Mahony: the42.ie/6618879

Ireland escape blatant deliberate knock on, yellow card and poss pen after barking conclusion by referee on the DKO. Nigel Owens clearly thought it was DKO.

Blair Kinghorn playing a blinder, both tactically and in attack. What a player man

Irish management giving Crowley a message there by throwing him on pointlessly at 15: "No matter how well you play you are now second choice." Sam Prendergast still can't tackle. #ScovIre

@andrewfrugby @EnglandRugby Who does he play for and who had he scored 450 points for?

Hey @EnglandRugby Fin Smith is from Warwick which is 38 miles from Northampton. He came through the Worcester Warriors Academy which is 76 miles from Northampton. I don’t really understand how you can say he was made in Northampton?

@James_Burridge But Marcus Smith FB against 🇫🇷 🙈🙈🙈

Whatever happens tomorrow, Fin Smith needs to be given a run in the England 10 shirt. One game isn't enough. He may only be 22, but he's a mature player who has experienced the highs & lows of professional rugby, seen here talking about Worcester last year. #ENGvFRA #6nations

@AndyGoode10 @RugbyPass

A big roll of the dice by the usually conservative, stats driven Steve Borthwick for England by moving Marcus Smith to 15. Have a read of my match preview with my column for @RugbyPass here 👇🏼 rugbypass.com/news/borthwick…

@RavenhillRoar Should there be?

No Ulster players in this week’s Ireland squad: irishrugby.ie/2025/02/07/eas… #UlsterRugby #IrishRugby #SUFTUM

@RugbyInsideLine Unlikely

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 SCOTLAND TEAM NEWS: Tom Jordan in at 12 for Stafford McDowall, Dempsey at 8 meaning Ritchie goes to the bench and Sutherland starts over Schoeman. Does that team have enough to beat the Irish?

@AndyBurke_ They’re going to lose 🤣

Thoughts on the team?

@scrumming_ten Now now, you shouldn’t be

What a special moment for Josh van der Flier and Duhan van der Merwe to play against each other on Sunday For those who don't know, they were both in the same Afrikaans first-language debate team in high school

@CianTracey1 Hard to wrap your head around how a pretty good Scotland team are only 1 from the last 15 against Ireland over the last 10yrs - can’t imagine a more lobsided recent history between two top tier rugby nations…

@_LFGolf Big debate

Cam Smith has one of the nicest swings in golf, no debate
