Well....it is a game with some speed (certainly versus the BIL/BOK game last week!)..albeit a lot of errors from both teams early in the game.....we stuck with them for 50mins or so....and our physicality and execution in places is much improved on recent years, and believe it or not my English brethren, the Wallaby scrum is now a weapon, especially with our reserve THP on the park...but overall just not consistent enough against the AB's who just punish any errors or drops in intensity...

When you're totally made of stone quarried from a Welsh hillside, I don't think your face can twists to show joy, without it looking like a snarl or grimace....:)

Thanks Alan, appreciate the heads up!.....fortunatley, I have a mate who plays for a London club who managed to snag a couple of the wallabies game a few weeks ago.


Lets hope I can leave twickers happy for the first time since 2015....

Uruguay beat the USA yesterday to qualify for RWC2023. Chile beat Canada and will now face the US. The winner will qualify too. Good to see that the game is improving in South America.


Unfortunately for Uruguay, they will be in the same group as France and NZ.


Below is the 2nd leg. Uruguay trailed by 3 from the first.



 

It's a shame how backwards the game has gone im Canada since the start of professionalism.


They were probably on a par with the Pacific island nations 25 years ago. Now they're getting beaten by Chile.


As you say thoug Alan, the flip side of that is the development of the game in South America....

    • There’s a line of stationary buses with hazards on ,from East Dulwich Grove to  Goose Green roundabout blocking traffic so it has to use the wrong lane at the zebra to cross the roundabout. No idea why.
    • Digital rubber necking ?  That's a meaningless phrase. The OP merely was seeking information.
    • Reviving this to say that Palais is now up and running.  We went to a night there yesterday.  It is a first floor bar with cocktails and space for a DJ.  That I think is intended to be a quieter space for an older/more chilled crowd.  There is also a basement club space that can hold 500, it has an amazing sound system. The communal areas are still a bit rough and ready, they still need to do some replastering and painting on the stairways and there is currently no functioning lift.   But generally it was well run and thoughtfully restored. It was good to see the space back in use and it feels like a good addition  to that end of Peckham. Interestingly, showing a shift in night time cultures, there were signs about not using mobile phones and everyone had to get a blocking  sticker put on their phone camera lens before they were allowed in. 
    • Great shout. They do need the extra fat when it’s winter, but don’t use fat balls from April as they are dangerous for nestlings as the babies can choke on lumps of the fat. When it gets milder switch to suet pellets as they are harder and don’t melt (the grease is bad for feathers.
