It feels strange being genuinely happy for an Australia win but here we are. tarbrush posted:Yes, as he and I share a surname Seems good for his age, but I'm terrible at telling who's going to kick on and who's going to plateau. Get the vague feeling he's being passed by Underhill at the moment. Mercer and Ellis Genge are the two English players Im most excited for this year. Hopefully Underhill is as good as they say too.

Personally, it bothers me that Tom Robertson has a win over the All Blacks. He's loving garbage.

What on earth is going on in Edinburgh? Firtst club captain Magnus Bradbury has been suspended for getting pissed, falling over, and bumping his head. And now John Haride has joined him cause he's been at the booger sugar. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/41700660

bigfoot again posted:So how com Savea isn"t in the AB squad now? There's been a significant dip in his form, and while he was tearing it up in the Mitre10 Cup, it's just the NPC. Naholo and Ioane are both playing better, and are similar wingers to him.

Just caught up with matches from yesterday. What's up with the Ospreys this season? How do you let Edinburgh score 37 points?

Vaders Jester posted:Just caught up with matches from yesterday. What's up with the Ospreys this season? How do you let Edinburgh score 37 points? Half of our squad is injured, and the half that's left doesn't want to play for The Ospreys, because they have a Wales tour / upcoming transfer opportunity that they need to be fit for. Our squad is so thin that we named amateur players in our Champions Cup squad, and started one of them in the Second Row. Within 60 minutes literally every winger in our squad was injured, and he had to move from Second Row to play out on the wing (We'd already moved our Fly-Half to the other wing). When that turned out to work, Warren Gatland came calling, and we haven't heard from him since. After selling our two star players at the start of the season, the coaches from both of their new teams remarked that they'd had the talent and fitness coached out of them, and had to be rested for a few months, so that they could start training again from scratch. The Scarlets fans have started taking signs to non-derby games, to proclaim how much they love and support our coach, and hope he remains at The Ospreys for many years (at least 4, with his current contract). The only consistency so far this season is that opposing fans of every team still sing Lion King songs at Scott Baldwin, every time we take a line-out.

Aye... but it's still Edinburgh. A team created out of terribad players for the amusement of every other team in the league, and that's after Townsend takes anyone that isn't utterly rubbish or on cocaine. Even Treviso beat Edinburgh. Also, if you will get bitten by a lion because you're a moron, expect to hear The Lion Sleeps Tonight forever.

The secret is Edinburgh have Tovey. The very first time I saw him play for the Dragons I thought, there's a player who deserves to play for a better team.

Which is a huge relief because Scotland are hosed at fullback if Hogg get injured. Jamie Richie is playing well at 6 but he's still pretty young and inexperienced at the moment.

England pick slade and Underhill which should be interesting. But also Hartley still starts for some reason. New Zealand pick a strong team. Walespick some people I’ve never heard of. Owen Williams is at 12.

Townsend has picked the best team he can considering the horror show of injuries to the Scotland squad, especially in the front row. Darryl Marfo, George Turner, Jamie Bhatti, and Chris Harris make their debut against Samoa and Huw Jones returns from an excellent Currie Cup showing with Western Province. The backs looks pretty scary but the pack might struggle if they get into an arm wrestle. Barclay returns as captain with Laidlaw out and Toonie goes with his Vice Captain thing with Ryan Wilson and Stuart Hogg to add a bit more leadership depth to the team. 1. Darryl Marfo (Edinburgh Rugby) 2. Stuart McInally (Edinburgh Rugby) 3. Willem Nel (Edinburgh Rugby) 4. Ben Toolis (Edinburgh Rugby) 5. Jonny Gray (Glasgow Warriors) 6. John Barclay (Scarlets) Captain 7. Hamish Watson (Edinburgh Rugby) 8. Ryan Wilson (Glasgow Warriors) 9. Ali Price (Glasgow Warriors) 10. Finn Russell (Glasgow Warriors) 11. Lee Jones (Glasgow Warriors) 12. Alex Dunbar (Glasgow Warriors) 13. Huw Jones (Glasgow Warriors) 14. Tommy Seymour (Glasgow Warriors) 15. Stuart Hogg (Glasgow Warriors) 16. George Turner (Glasgow Warriors) 17. Jamie Bhatti (Glasgow Warriors) 18. Zander Fagerson (Glasgow Warriors) 19. Tim Swinson (Glasgow Warriors) 20. Cornell Du Preez (Edinburgh Rugby) 21. Henry Pyrgos (Glasgow Warriors) 22. Pete Horne (Glasgow Warriors) 23. Chris Harris (Newcastle Falcons)

The thing is, when he left the Dragons he was deemed surplus to requirements. For a team with limited recruitment resources, their ability to make the most of what they've got is dreadful.

Mike Brown just got hit in the air and landed on his head. Doesn't look good for him at the moment. Edit: He's up and off for HIA. Argentinian got away with a yellow.

Looked like a pretty close contest for the ball. Brown certainly came off worse though. Hopefully he's alright and it's nothing too serious.
