Yeah like this but actually scoring a try I will never find James Haskell looking like an idiot not funny. I quite liked Haskell as a player. Then I made the mistake of reading his autobiography. He really is the worst kind of rugger bugger tosser. Such a twat! |

That would require me having to re-open the book and read parts of it! There was something around organising pre-season drinks with fines and a court session and the usual shite. |

Find Haskell not looking like an idiot and I shall send you £5 He does a decent clearout here - running in with red scrum hat. (likely illegal under current laws though as it looks somewhat high.) Forward to 0:57 if the video starts at the beginning. I hope that video link works. |

He kept banging on about building “brand Haskell” rather than actually playing the best rugby he could

You have to love South Africa.
Yep, here's our team early, yeah do whatever you want tactically, we don't care. We're going to beat you anyway.
Also...7-1 split.

I hope it backfires horribly. Oh yeah, me too. But as a mental probe that doesn't matter too much if it backfires, it's gold. "Having some trouble with QFs? We don't care, this is our land and we're going to do what we want. Beat us if you can, we'll beat the next lot regardless". Just great squad management. |

And I guess it's closer to a 6.5-1.5 split with Smith in there.

Genuinely impressed by the turn around time on making that advert.

Hopefully he does the decent thing and headbutts a Chilean flanker

Perhaps an indication that he's firmly 2nd string...

More a chance for him to stake his claim for 1st, let’s face it he should score double figures against chile

I'm hoping he'll clock a Chilean player in the head during the first five minutes - without doing the poor chap any long-term damage, of course - and get banned for the remainder of the tournament.

What better way to balance what’s around them than starting 7 fly halfs

Just bizarre what comes out of the couches mouths in interviews, between Bortho’s meaningless dribbling platitudes, Sinfield happy because players are eating dinner together and Wiggleworth sounding like he’s having a minor stroke I can’t can’t decide what worries me more

On the lighter side of things, it's nice to see that the France vs. Namibia game isn't totally one-sided.
