This is desperately sad. Only 39.

We need to take brain injuries seriously.

@patriciavieira.bsky.social @rhigarthjones.bsky.social Loving the takeover! “They died as they lived, probably annoyed about something” had me in fits, as did “with the angles” 😂😂😂

Oooh how about a range of Scottish Rugby themed candles? “The Finn” (scented with Haribo Tangfastic),”The Ryan Wilson” (lager and BBQ kings) and one that just says “Disappointment” which always smells like 4th in the 6 Nations?

Scotland fans who thought Scott Cummings would have been picked for the #BiL 23 because he has been better on tour: when performing your calculations, you forgot to carry the Irish.

I've actually been a huge fan of Ashman since U20s where he looked a real prospect especially in defence and the loose, and genuinely hope the exposure to this environment will prove beneficial to his development as a player, which seems to have stalled a little in the last year or so...

Dear goodness, Duolingo is so needy that, if it were a real person sending those messages, they’d be out of my life pretty quickly.

Does the Sky studio make the presenters look jaundiced on everyone’s TV or is mine just goosed?!

This Ben White bloke looks decent at 9, Anyone know if he’d ‘work’ with Finn Russell?

Sweet eye-watering beauty in Scotland's bonnie wee training top. My eyes have never felt so alive. @scottishrugbyblog.co.uk

Playing Fiji away is very different to playing them when they’re on tour. Reminds me of playing the likes of Dumfries or Newton Stewart back in the day at Ardrossan…the travelling team would be a poor shadow of the one who took the field at home…

To be fair to Ashman, he’s at least found a new way to concede possession from that lineout…
July 12, 2025 at 4:07 AM
Have had a peek at Scottish Rugby FB fora and I think I’ll just stay here…

Of course, the big question is did @borderbadger.bsky.social manage to stay up?!

We’re going to end up playing 7s if we’re not careful with the penalties

#FiJvSCO take it that ball was deemed as stripped in the tackle rather than a knock on in the Fiji 22?
July 12, 2025 at 3:36 AM
Losing 3 points with a man in the bin feels like a win after all that Fiji pressure and possession #FIJvSCO
July 12, 2025 at 3:24 AM
#FIJvSCO I mean, that’s some setting.
July 12, 2025 at 3:21 AM
Maybe taking the scrum to get. Hooker on would’ve been a better option than the lineout? Wee bit of inexperience maybe?
July 12, 2025 at 3:18 AM
#BiL Have seen a few videos which show the #Lions squad have their kids out with them in Australia. Maybe Andy just felt left out?

That Scotland change top underlining just how great the new women’s RWC top is.
