Our girls are getting good money for fuck all games! Pisses me off things like the SR are home and away and then semi/finals. And there are no where near enough internationals
Regular games are being fixed next year with the new WR comp. Hardly 'good money' if you are having to pay out for childcare and travel on top or a partner has to curtail their work to support you.
The next level down is a real problem in finding the balance when two thirds of the players don't get paid and cant afford the time off.
Hopefully we can drive demand up to a point where there is better reimbursement at that level so a longer comp can happen and players can stay in camp all week.

Just bumped into a retired ex-workmate. The USA team is training at our club, but apparently, the French have too. One of our old club codgers bailed up the French coach, after what my mate said was a pretty accurate session.
'When I was coaching... blah blah blah'
Hopefully, a good dinner story for the French coach if they have a sense of humour!

This Scotland V Aus game is a good watch.
The Sweaties leading 12-0 after about 30 and if they get close line outs have Aus really under the pump
In the maul.Suck on that @NTA you guys just embarrass yourselves when it comes to competing with the mighty Scots

In the maul.I had no idea who the sweaties were, ozzie cos they lived in an oven, or jocks cos the can't Twitter the heart.

That's classic. Scotland penalty on the 22 in the middle of the field, so kick for touch and get the lineout a metre behind the 22, then hit it up in midfield ending up a couple of metres short of where you kicked it...only to turn it over.
Maybe be a bit smarter and tap it or ask for a scrum?

What a big waste of time for that review
Ref seems to be really good but has the most random advantage lengths, whistled a knock on at the start and I swear the ball had only just hit the ground from the knock. Then let's one go forever, to the point where they end up back at the scrum on the other side of the field but about ten metres back.
Let's the players fuck about too much too.

Another long review.
AR trying to talk her into a red.
So now you take a scrum Scotland, so you're against 12.

So two YCs for the Oz hooker?

shame they didn’t keep going with the maul.

I think Scotland just got bluffed out of taking a scrum.
Yeah. They shouldn’t have kicked for touch as the wind was only giving them 5 metres. Should have taken the scrum anyway as Oz were putting backs into the scrum for numbers.
I’d love to see if they really did have three nominated hookers. Looking to bring a starting prop back in to fill the role?
