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....

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
