Well a new one for us, one of the lads has said he’s unavailable for Tuesdays training session as he’s going to see Shania Twain.
What’s the worst/best excuse you’ve ever heard for missing a game/training?
Front row lads after grafting for 80 minutes, making tackles, hitting rucks, punching the opposition 9 (discretely) & having 18 scrums in a game.
Only for the winger who touched the ball 3 times, dropped the ball twice and missed three tackles to get man of the match.
@FMC_Rugby Too good not to join in!

This has made our year! Hopefully a true fly on the wall, drive to survive-esque application. The ‘97 Living with Lions pioneered the behind the scenes sport genre hopefully the red chino brigades reluctance to give rugby personality doesn’t derail this!
Netflix will not only give you access to the biggest names in golf, tennis & racing — as well as the Invictus Games! — but we are proud to announce three new docuseries as well.
Get ready to go inside:
The Tour de France
FIFA World Cup
Rugby's Guinness Six Nations Championship
Backs all around the world trying to work out how much time missing 3 tackles and getting bounced out of a ruck takes up of their 15 minutes of contact
New World Rugby guidelines place limits on contact training:
🏉 15mins intense contact per week
🏉 40mins controlled contact
🏉 30mins live set piece
Guidelines will be adapted with research. Intention is to formalise in law. They will be in RWC terms.

Russia being made to compete at the Olympics as the ‘Russian Olympic Committee’ is the elite sporting equivalent of being told ‘not tonight mate’ by the bouncers.
Then walking behind the kebab shop, putting black socks over your trainers & getting waived in.
You didn’t think we would get together and not share a drink did you???

Scott is so big that glass is actually a pint glass in his hand…
When instead ring-fencing the top domestic rugby league you give opportunity, aspiration, incentivise investment and are willing to share the spoils with the 2nd tier...you allow the chance for scenes like this.
English rugby, take note
