I first skied Niseko like most people, took a look around at all the Australians and Kiwis, ever since I've been going to Furano, Tomamu and Kurodake. Less like Bali on snow...

It's changed.
Lot less Australians and way more SE Asians.
Base myself in Niseko Hirafu because that's where my customers own propreties.
But mainly ski Kiroro, Rusutsu and Niseko Moiwa.
Just did a 10-day roadie hitting the bigger and smaller resorts around Hakodate and Asahikawa.
Magic.

Yes. Very lucky. Hokkaido is 'Fantasy Island'.

England match day squad for the French game. One Steady Eddie leftfield selection is that of Ashton instead of Nowell, considering the impact Nowell had last week. However, apart from that, not much to moan about.
England team to play France:
Daly; Ashton, Slade, Tuilagi, May; Farrell, Youngs; M Vunipola, George, Sinckler, Lawes, Kruis, Wilson, Curry, B Vunipola
Replacements: Cowan-Dickie, Cole, Moon, Launchbury, Hughes, Robson, Ford, Nowell

@Catogrande that Wilson, Curry, Billy front row is gonna get slaughtered. Loose trio looks pretty slow too.

Don't have to be fast if you start running from offside.
Hoping France pull out an 80 minute performance and the offside line is policed.

As long as we have a Vunipola in both the front and back rows then all is right with the world.
I think.

@rotated yep.
Makes sense for Joseph for sure that is his full time gig but the having your head coach getting back for training Monday at earliest for a fixture in Singapore of all places seems...uh... sub-optimal.
Mighty have a cheeky punt on the Sharks.

Had great fun there last Feb. Still many Aussies, not so many Kiwis.
Was in Alps this week. Saw Official All Black Support van in Les Carroz on Tuesday.

A couple of interesting sightings at England training...
Fucken hell Charlie Morgan, if Tony Brown excites them I hope for the sake of their pacemakers DC doesn't pop by.
