Have you got a link for that draw or is that a guess on one plays eight etc?

More upfront grunt from the A team based on the highlights this week.

Looks like they have a pack capable of mauling very effectively.

If only...... nah....... just had a brainfart.

Just home from a great rugby weekend in Wales and went also to Coventry, the A team would appear to have some fire in their bellies and were able to grind out a win in miserable conditions, they need a win and went out to do just that. that is a couple of games I have now watched and they appear to be able to vary their game very much, I have no doubt william andeson has an influence on that forward play, there is a clip on URTV with their head coach indicating that the players themselves can make those decisions and adapt quickly , I would put the link up but don't know how, can some one put the highlight links and campbell interview up.

The great rugby was all in Wales as we also got to see Lllaneli and Toulon, we wish we had stopped at that and not gone to Conventry, a dire soulless stadium and crap rugby. The team looked flat and at times you could see that they were beat, as for the Ulster fans some great people but also some not so nice.

Observation from the game in Wales, Ross and Browne were outstanding , a workman like performance from all 23 players, a proud performance in awful conditions I hope the main team watch the video to see 23 players playing as one.

Would be good to get a few at Bedford, although it's not much of a step up from Cov.

It's the only place I've played cricket and struggled to get into the changing room because of a sleeping drug addict. I was making up the numbers for a church team who, of course, just stepped over him and got on with the game.

Good to hear 2MP had a stormer. He can take lineout ball and disrupt a maul Jono. Just saying.

Why are some not so nice?
I see comments like this a lot but no explanation
