@DaveBroad7 @long_scarf @Ferdinand641 @Kyleakinite @WritesBright @elonmusk I feel obliged to clarify my statement above, please substitute 'cure blindness' with 'give sight to the blind'. Neuralink will not cure blindness. The remainder of my point stands.

[Richie van der Linde @Richievdl]

@DaveBroad7 @long_scarf @Ferdinand641 @Kyleakinite @WritesBright Happy to be proven incorrect, but I do not recall @elonmusk having cured blindness? Neuralink is developing the technology but it is not proven, nor available to the public (and could be decades away). To claim blindness is cured is false and a lie.

@PaulThielSA Hmmmm... Hate to say it, but those in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones.

@euphoria_HB Stop. You are embarrassing yourself. England came into the RWC ranked 8th. Finished 4th in the 6 nations. They have performed well in the tournament and are right to celebrate a bronze medal. #behumble

@Tk00756094260 @RoryPetzer That said, nice to have a decent debate and best of luck for the final! 🏆🏉

@Tk00756094260 @RoryPetzer Just for clarity, the post by @RoryPetzer was in reference to the challenge to World Rugby to look at scrummaging penalties and the importance of the scrum in rugby.

Tom Curry's incident is not related to scrummaging, and should be addressed in a different thread/forum.

[Richie van der Linde @Richievdl]

@Tk00756094260 @RoryPetzer You do realise Matt Williams (current Irish pundit and ex-Scotland coach) is the one making the comments on scrummaging.

Feel free to bash the English all you like, but at least do it for things they are actually responsible / accountable for.

@C_Philippou @DriscollFC @KieranMaguire Heaps of US sports implement a salary cap to maintain competition. They don't seem to struggle with growth incentives and finances?

[Richie van der Linde @Richievdl]

@PureRogue369 Think you will find Curry got a card in the 48th minute.

That was a RED card all day long. Rugby doesn't need those challenges in the game (stop CTE).

Thank you, Roger.

What will season 23 look like for Brady? 🤔

@British_Airways , the real disgrace is your lack of representation. Sending out a security guard to break the news to the stranded passengers.

@British_Airways , absolute disaster for USA flight bagdrop at Heathrow T5 block C.

You specifically said NOT to arrive more than 3 hours before the flight.

Been in queue (only 2/5ths through now) for 49 minutes (starts a stopwatch when I was put in the "overflow" queue.

LAX and Vegas have just left without passengers who have been here since check-in opened!!!!

@CheckMateBoxng @ESPNRingside @BooBooAndrade 1. Quigley is fiercely Irish.
2. Ireland is not England.
3. Ireland isn't even in the UK.
