Sweet, Dad's mate wanted it but he wanted to pay £30 a month....must think I'm SKY lol

You'll love it mate, I've already payed for it from money I've saved not paying for Sky.

Lol ,

When can you drop it off? Need to tidy my room lol

I'll install it for you if you like.

Just need a sky feed and ethernet cable to reach to your router (can get a 10m one off ebay for about £2)

Sorry Driver, need the cash so I can buy the other one first lol. Missus won't be too happy if I leave her with no sky!

That's fine mate , just bring it round when i'v got the cash.

Just in time for 4N

That's the plan! lol

Be good watching Rugby on my TV again rather than some foreign website!

Where's your router at?

It's in the loft above my room but i'v already got a ethernet cable coming in to my room

No dramas then, wish I could give it now mate, missus is off work tho so she's hammering the movies.

Get a 3pm match too as well as Adult

I'll never have to leave my bed!

Four hours of tv, I'm up for deals.

Not sure what the fuss over Marler is, he has potential. However he hasn't tested himself against the best in the world yet. Although if Corbs moved back across the scrum again, England have some good selections in the future.

Yep, only potential at this stage, but a good season. Need to see him scrummage at top level, but i'm a big corbs fan, huge all round game. be intresting to see who comes out of the sa tour plus and minus. typically these types of tours have ended more int careers than started!

Corbs not a TH imo, Marler was superb today

He's played there. In fact I'm sure he started his career there, but LI pushed him to LH. I think he could adapt to the over side, would allow Marler to play/bench.

A good season, and one good game today. Still a long way to go.

Corbs did but he used to get hammered at TH due to constant switching, not many props can swap sides at will.

What impresses me most about Marler is he's shone in a dire front row (for most of season). Corbs doesn't do this for Irish imo but looks solid alongside Hartley/Cole.

Marler also offers much more in loose. If Marler can hold his own alongside Hartley/Cole he'll get the jersey as he's outstanding in loose.

I'd love to see Marler in a pack on the front foot as i'v seen him dish out some pastings then pinged because James Johnston is getting screwed on the tight.

Tigers taking control...

Newby, Youngs and Ford playing really well. Mafi putting himself about too and Manu looking in better form than he has over the last few months.

I think that it's the same situation at LI as it is with Quins. I do think that maybe Grey is a better hooker than Paice and can help Marler.

It's a good thing to have for the future for ENG.


Mafi has to be Leicesters player of the year, can't think of the last he played badly or was anonymous in a game!

Rob Hawkins available for 3m

Any others for cash?

Afraid not mate

Might be in for a squad tweak after the final.

Will look to sort out budgets for final places etc and potential bonuses when we find out if Falcons are going down?!??

I would like to know what's happening!

SJE....do we have the cup final & 3/4 playoff next week?

There's Bristol out of the way Flux....

Beford getting battered by London Welsh poor game

Try for Bedford! Good finish , starting to get into the game a bit now.

Jamie Lennard is making big yards up the middle and Luke Baldwin is injecting pace from 9.

need 13 points to win on aggregate.

Fingers crossed

Welsh 9 Bedford 10

Penalty from Pritchard!!!

9 points from safety!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

C'mon Bedford!!!

Worst try to concede ever

Welsh launch the ball long , Bedford wing goes to pick the ball up from the floor and misses it and the Welsh wing puts it down

14 points from safety

Welsh 14 Bedford 10

17-17 10 mins to go need 10 points

Also COME ON CITY!

BEDFORD SCORE!!!!!!!!

3 points from Safety

Can't believe City have blown it

Bloody hell, C'mon!!!!

Welsh won

Have I missed much?

Sergio Aguero is my new hero......

Pooly,

Cup final & 3rd/4th playoff should have been this week going by the fixture list but the league final was put up. We can run it off next week and thats the end of the season

I thought the same mate, I missed a trick there!

Cup final and 3/4 playoff next week then!

Have we any plans for the summer to keep activity going? I can have a look during the week at doing up some sort of cup if it interests you?

Could do fella

I can have a look during the week and see what I can knock up. Anyone have any sugestions for what they woud like during the summer?

Thinking of a cup tournament at the moment similar to the one this year but home and away in the group stages and then Cup/Plate/ Semi's, 3rd Place playoff and Final. Thinking 3 AP sides to a group and then 1 top foreign side a group i.e the likes of Leinster, Clermount, Toulouse, Ulster. Only an idea at the moment so any and all suggestions welcome

7s tournament? Just for a bit of a laugh, I could sort it out.

Could do both on alternate weeks. 7's never really worked in ERL I thought but could do a straight knockout.

Didn't realise you'd tried 7s before, fair enough. Just thought that it would be interesting to see who'd be good.

Yeah that sounds like a bit of fun. Bathite can run the 7s and me the cup. Would keep interest in the league over the off season and would be a bit different

Are we running to the proper Aviva schedule next season?
