Probably better than that in truth.

Saw this. Excellent article and good to see that at least someone, at national level, has noticed that rugby exists below the Prem/Champ.

Yes, I understand so. I believe he was one of the 'several' signed already for next year, but brought forward due to the Stevens/Tuitupou/Dingwall situation. Tigers don't use him, so it makes sense for both sides. I guess Cov can now use it as 'trial' period eh?

I think it's a bit of a stretch to say 'most' have five on a regular basis TBF. Only Old Albanian, Loughborough Students tend to abuse the system to that extent. Plymouth have a facility with Exeter, but I don't think they've pushed it that far very often if at all. DMP tend to have two or three...

He was brought in a couple of weeks ago, but only just confirmed. No idea why it took so long! Emery, Umaga and Dingwall are also DR, as was Gabriel Oghre (who may have gone back now).

Cov sign Ravai Fatiaki (centre/half back) from Leicester. A Fiji international who also plays for the army with prop Nat Titchard-jones. Adds flexibility as cover for both out-half and 12/13, which is always welcome given the limited bench at this level (requirement for front-row cover limits...

The 1.5 mil wasn't just for the pitch. Lots more work being undertaken besides as part of that cost. There are even rumours emanting from people supposedly in the know of a small hotel going in in the medium term (but doubt that means this year somehow). The 'Park' side is also ripe for some...

Proper rugby. None of this passing the ball about nonsense. Loved it! :emoji_muscle:

And the good news is that the RFU obviously took all this into account and have rescinded the card. Broken nose or not, PW starts tomorrow (sadly Sam Tuitupou, Olly Povoas and Tom Emery are out due to injuries. Fortunately, quality replacements are available in Grove, Preece and Knox). Big...

Yep. Could be lengthy. Straight red for a punch. (Provocation, but a punch nonetheless). Expecting a huge response next week, but they may need to look at trying to get Tom Kessell back sharpish now - assuming the new management at Saints have settled in and think they can do without him again.

Frustration? Pete White red-carded, and Stokes yellow for dissent near the end. Poor stuff.

God knows ISSC. Just seemed to turn to jelly.

Some terrible reffing early on in the game (when Cov were pressing) put them right off their game. Inexcusable, but there you go. The players have been left to sort it out by themselves in the changing room, as the coaches have all come out and are huddled, currently. If they carry on like they...

Hey, we don't all have six fingers. Mind you, the Leicester City fan next door and the two Tigers fans over the road do. Shit.

NEVER use the 'J' word...

Turns out it was the same ref that red-carded Sammy at Cambridge. Perhaps it's a good idea he was 'rested'...

He was certainly being assessed - by 1700 of us. And found wanting. Not sure if there was an RFU assessor in attendance though.

Yep. Poor bugger had to take the walk of shame the whole width of the pitch. Didn't look very happy! The sub was no better though...

It's always been available (well, certainly back to the back end of the last century). I have shirts from the nineties, and similar-vintage hats and scarves that I bought my daughters back then when they started going to Coundon Road. I currently wear my Cov pin badge every day with pride!

People who quote their own Twitter feed. I dunno :shamefullyembarrased: Yep, Cov were absolutely not on the boil today. Lots of unforced errors all around the pitch, with Stokes making a couple of howlers (and the ref and one assistant in particular having a nightmare at times). But.. you can't...
