Argentina QF
England SF

2nd capts rugby review pod, Shane Horgan... my God... so he waxed lyrical about Sam's passing & kicking and then they moved onto the tackles and called him "a flawed genius" then compared him to Finn Russell referring to his mistake v ARG... it terms of taking the flaws due to the size of the upside

Just heard the expression As Brave As A Lion during the everton match.... are lions known for their bravery?? Or are they generally just the biggest boy in the playground?

So, if Beirnes red is upheld there's probably a ban.
So if he's out for the month, what's the plan? Baird moved or Hendo in? whose on the bench? Is Ahern next man up or C Prendo at 6? I'm meaning for Oz, JAP almost doesn't matter, he'll throw out The Other Guys and put them back in the stand after

so the starting 15 v NZ, what he probably will do and what he could to to progress a few positions without weakening it too much and still have Porter, Baird and JGP to bounce off the bench on 50-60min

I gave The Irish Indo Left Wing pod another listen, first time in a few yrs, dumped it due to Lukey Fitz being a title but had read that the indo rugby pod was one of the best informed pods on the Irish circuit now so I gave it another go, also being the post MUN win helps..... insufferable/

not been following the Irish Pres election much at all apart from what comes on here, all i know is that there are two women, one is a decent footballer, the other is protestant and this is an issue to some, and some pretending its a bigger issue than it is. One of them can't speak irish, some care/

thoughts on the Tom Farrell call up.
On one side I see the point against him and his age, 32, if you're looking to develop back ups to the already old group of centres then a 32yr old doesn't appear to be the best choice.
BUT - if you're smashing it you deserve a call/cap otherwise what's the point

Had a new experience today, my 1st rugby league game, the NRL Grand Final, a bit like your 1st meal being a Michelin star one, every other experience will be a disappointment after it!
Thoughts on league, shoulders in the face are not a yellow or red.
There are few breaks, it really flows for 80min

Heres ur fun fact for the day - Fremantle, Oz, a failing settlement in 1800s due to it being rough a fck, settlers leaving, someone with connections writes to UKGov asking for convicts, not hardened, not political, just petty, young and male. Basically legal slave labour to build their settlement
