Terrible. Never thought I’d want Stuart Barnes back. Still not sure I do, but it’s close.

Agreed. And couldn’t have a worse combination with Flatman.

Fingers crossed. Should be dry I think so hopefully some slick handling!

Great song - their music is great for soundtracks. God’s Creatures (Paul Mescal) used their version of ‘The Wild Rover’ in last few minutes. Great band to see live too!

I’d do the latter to be honest - I think JGP would be the best option to get quick ruck ball which assuming there is a forwards platform, Frawley can work with. Casey and SP to come on when game looser, less structured, etc., but I guess we’ll find out soon enough!

Agree with this also. If Frawley plays well I think he is in pole position for bench slot vs Australia with Crowley starting. If not, maybe that’s Prendergast. I’d love to see Frawley play well and for us to have 3 solid options at 10.

The article references the LD run county council - I think that should refer to the City & District Council which is responsible for the local plan, not the Conservative run county council which sold off the land for the rail freight development despite extensive local opposition.

Agree your point although harsh on residents.

Fully agree - whole of Stoneybatter would benefit from a single waste utility not run for profit, and that would make enforcement of littering/dumping rules much easier to enforce with less excuses based on private operator failures.

Clearly that’s not something the residents have chosen - landing them with the bill for remediation prior to adoption seems harsh.

No surprise as Hertfordshire County Council (Tory) is not fit for purpose maintaining any of the roads it’s responsible for. St Albans is constantly suffering from their failures so unfortunately I can see how smaller cases like this are woefully dealt with.

That was so good. Highlighted the Shaka and the opposition. Best haka drama in years.
