Peter Stringer may be in the European Champions Cup 1/4 finals. Today Bath produced an excellent performance to win with a bonus point in Toulouse. Now they just need to beat Glasgow at home next week and it should be enough to grab one of the runner up spots.
Bath played some great rugby and the try which was scored by Louw contained some fantastic play from Jonathan Joseph in the build up. He pretty much tore Toulouse apart on his own.
George Ford is an excellent 10. England will have the difficult choice of selecting Ford or Farrell.
Gwan Stringer.
It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.
Well whatever about Chairmen and that all I would prefer to see Bath doing well than some of the other teams in it. They play some good stuff and Stringer is there. If it came to a choice between seeing Stringer, Ashton or Hartley in a semi final for example I could only go with the wee man.

Should Stringer deserve an Ireland recall on the back of his form?
All that experience and control he would be a great lad to have coming on the last 10 or 20 especially in a world cup year.
Don't know if he retired or just wasn't selected though.

Aye, not with that tosser of a chairman.
G'wan the Weegies!
I'm a fan of Stringer, even if I wouldn't trust him to go to Afzal' s corner shap for a Mars bar and a bottle of Boost and bring the right change, given he is an untrustworthy teetotaller.
However Jackie is spot on, supporting Barff is not an option with that obnoxious Craig in charge. Besides I would be very happy to see Weegies get a runners up spot.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

F-ck Glasgow. Couldn't be listening to their booing the whole way through a 1/4 final. Hope Stringer buries them.

Och now don't you go getting all sentimental and glassy eyed about the wee man.
Bath, Ashton, Hartley - there's not much there to like. It's like having to pick your favourite venereal disease.
Arra I can't help it a chara. I'm deligted for him that he is still going strong. I've been critical of him when I thought it was justified but he is some fecking man to be still going in a top team at 37 years of age.
And who could argue with a wee man who could tackle a guy effectively that most guys twice his size couldn't make an impact on. A legend of Shannon RFC and like the good old crazy king, a man more sinned against than sinning......by the IRFU and others.
