A very belated thank you to the @SportSJA for this award. It was an honour just to be nominated among such a fine shortlist. Head now hurts as much as the legs do post marathon

Bath v Leicester is a curious rivalry, based not on geography, but on jealousy, competitiveness and, sometimes, hatred.

I was sent to Coventry this week and it was a real pleasure to see a club trying to do things the right way embracing their community and history

The loss of Steve Bale has hit us like a ton of bricks. A beautiful writer, the finest colleague and the best of pals. Impossible to recall a time his presence failed to lift the spirits. Oh, and nobody sung an anthem (any anthem) like he did. Sing one for him tonight. RIP Baler

"Don’t let the haka bully you because it is only a dance. Don’t worry about it. Chill out."

Long-read on player payments down English rugby union’s pyramid. A fascinating, often murky subject.
