What should we speak of
When we are old as you? When we shall hear
The rain and wind beat dark December, how
In this our pinching cave shall we discourse
The freezing hours away? We have seen nothing.

I don't think it's a bad pick at all. I think they will be right up there and my gut feel is the top three will all be within a few points of each other.

For me I can see a world where they wobble out of the gate (depending on how the World Cup hangover hits them) and this league is so small one wobble can cost a place or two. For what it's worth I think they will still be deadly in the playoffs.

Do you think I've been too kind or too harsh?

You're too kind, thanks so much for sharing. I agree with you on the net losses/gains and I've had a punt at guessing where each team will finish the (regular) season here: open.substack.com/pub/pwrpoint...

She's in the Irish guards but I think that is coincidence. I think she just joined them to play some rugby. Has been there a good few years. I saw her play for them in late 2021.

London Irish Emerald too, she's ace

I was pleasantly surprised it recognised me as human to be honest 😂

at least the face scan doesn't reveal how old it estimates you are... mine was the fastest processing I have ever seen 🤣

Not sure how it would pan out but a team of prime Ma'a Nonu vs 15 prime Seilala Mapusua would be a fun experiment

Wouldn't be at all surprised if they are holding off to announce on a specific date.

I wouldn't blame you one bit... I still struggle to care a lot of the time since Irish went to the wall.
