Two home wins, maybe three?

Dulwich College through to the final after beating RGS High Wycombe this afternoon at Allianz Park. Some extraordinary refereeing giving out 4 yellow cards and one red (three yellows and a red to Dulwich). One yellow was for pushing another player in the chest! Dulwich down to 13 at one point, but some truly heroic defending camped on their own line for the last 15 mins saw them through 7-3.


The final is on Saturday 29th March at Twickenham against Warwick School. The more support they have the better. Only one other school has won three titles- but that was at the very beginning of the tournament when there was no limit on the amount of Scholarship players. So essentially a third win in a row for Dulwich would be unprecedented.

Wales lose again. Never again should a team take over the lions as if it was their own. They were good yes, but never as good as they thought they were. Great performance by England and it seems only a late French try has prevented them winning a grand slam (cant see them losing to Italy).

Congrats to England on the TC - I actually like them at present - Hope

they win the 6N - Certain non playing personalities like to wind up Welsh

fans however.


England had a big say in the Lions - IMHO - I could list English players

that had influence even in the final game - it's a 23 a side game.


Wales have issues with the new laws at the scrummage (I really would like

to go back to the hit personally and I find it rather unfair that after

years of one law, administrators change to something different 1 year out

from the world cup - Gethin and Adam are maybe to old to adjust and might

be gone now)


They will be back for next years games (Cardiff and RWC at HQ - too many big

players not to be.

You really need Ireland to lose - but apparently they don't

often win in Paris.

With so many players unavailable, England looked really good today. Nigel Owens I think made a couple of poor decisions for a ref considered to be the best. I hope he doesn't believe his own publicity.


The AB's will be better next week but I imagine England can be too. One thing for certain is that England are serious WC contenders next year. With home advantage they should win it given the players they have. 4/1 at the moment.

The Rugby World Cup sent the ballot results today.


I got tickets for Ireland France in Cardiff on Sunday 11 October 2015 and have the hotel booked.


Unsuccessful in getting any England games and semi final or final but pleased to have got something. Anyone else have any luck ?

I didn't even try Mick. Was thinking about that fixture today strangely enough. I didn't think it was part of the ballot as I'd read there were plenty of seats for games in Cardiff. I was also looking at the draw and if Ireland were to win their group (and that match is likely to be the decider) they could have a Q/Final v Argentina followed by a semi v England if they were to win. If they lose to France I think it's a Q/Final v NZ. But hey, we've got to beat them sometime.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
