quins, what did you expect, both have their necks firmly on the block! Were you hoping for joint hara-kiri or just begging for forgiveness?!

McCafferty will probably, and finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!, use the media platform of such an auspicious occasion to announce actual established details of the new RCC.  Who is in it, when it will begin, the format, perhaps dates, prize money etc

Will he?  Alice in Wonderland's white rabbit is on the run.  He promised us all this detailed stuff ages ago.  Time!  Time Gentlemen, please.  Time is running out.  Get your tickets now!!!

Now should be his time.  "The ERC is dead.  I have assumed full and personal Bernie Ecclestone standard ownership of rugby in Europe.  My first judgement shall be to move England's first game against New Zealand next year on by three weeks to make sure it doesn't clash with the more important AP final.  I - have - spoken!..... and Dorothy will go back to Kansas"

from mccafferty at the expo...

(Reuters) - European rugby's new club competition is a "train that has left the station" but there is still just time to pick up the Heineken Cup refuseniks, the head of the English Premiership said on Wednesday.

"Rugby Expo". Load of corporatized b*l*ocks. Short for "Rugby Excrement Poo" presumably.

The fact that there are girls there says it all. Although, in fairness, they'll probably know a lot more about rugby than Andrew 'CEO' Hore.

It seems as though this event is being ignored by virtually everyone. Except me now. And quite rightly too.

Never heard of that. What's the purpose of this thing? Promote rugby?

Nobody's ever heard of it. I've spent the last several hours researching it and it's the corporate equivalent of a load of (skiddy) pants.

The only rugby person there is Beaumont. And he only went because there's an 'all you can eat' buffet.

He's still there.

Eating.

Serge has a taste for top notch dining (and vino) in the south of France.

Don't think he'd be tempted by some rent-a-caterer krappe at a third rate corporate at Twickers.

The Times reported that "the Expo finished with Bill Beaumont on the main platform whipping down Mark McCafferty's jockeys and giving him a sound trashing like the miscreant schoolboy that he is" Very Happy

Some twitter lunatic tweeted something like "made some awesome contacts networking at #rugbyexpo see y'all next year guys"

I used to think that every time one of these conference things are held then a little bit of rugby dies inside.

But they're so low profile that I don't think anyone notices them now.

There's one in Dublin next week. You can have breakfast with Seb Coe. Great player he was.

Girls can play rugby...
Our med school girls are pretty good (despite mostly being tiny) and England have an excellent women's rugby team slowly growing in coverage
