From Stuff:
Howley was found to have placed 363 bets with three separate bookmakers covering a total of 1163 rugby matches over a period of five years.
(Something wrong with their maths. May have mixed the matches and bets around.)
The WRU said Howley lost about £4000 on his bets
Likely there were some accumulators going on.
Or decumulators if you take your second point into account

Great coach - losing 4k

The court heard that a conviction would likely see Mafi lose his lucrative contract in Japan.
Stiff shit.

Same as the RC I guess. Always a bit of frision after the RWC!
I see SexCockWomble is Capt, so more of his sour-puss-grumpy-face action on our screens.

ban the box kick!!

@mariner4life also once your hands are on the ball, it is out (like it used to be) not hands on, roll it back, re-position to make a pass easier, then holding it on the deck for what seems an age, then passing/kicking...
I expect if the 5 second rule was enforced properly, ref calls ball available, 9 knows he has 5 sec to use it - be it kick or pass, then the is less Faffing about at the back, directing the forwards, moving the ball into a better position and angle

Just penalise twats standing as pillars with a finger on the 'ruck', don't allow players to join once the ball is available (i.e. creating a 'snake') and once the halfback has touched the ball they can't reposition it.
All actions should be penalised by strapping tape over the halfback's mouth. -
ban halfbacks!!!

Liked for bringing a verb into use. Faffing: To extend the game of rugby longer than 85 minutes by continued inaction at the ruck.

What's your point? Within the rules, his uncle and father played for different countries, he represented England at under 18 and under 20.
