@tribe_talking Liv, not Liz lol

[EK Rugby Analysis @ek_rugby]

Absurd speed from Bielle-Biarrey to create this try⚡️

Law 18.2d:

The ball is not in touch or touch-in-goal if [...] a player, who is in touch, kicks or knocks the ball, but does not hold it, provided it has not reached the plane of touch.

Absolutely fucking sucks they've never done half this for a single other player or team lmao but they're nothing if not shameless as always

Two years on…

Two years ago today I was diagnosed with MND. As far as statistics are concerned, I had a 50% chance of living up to this point but I am still here and despite the complete decline in my physical body, I am pleased to be here. I wrote a poem last year to mark the first year after my diagnosis and so I thought I would do the same thing this year. I will keep going every year I can.

P.S. It’s coming home 😁

[Red Roses @RedRosesRugby]
