It will be a while as they need time to recover after each match. Shoving bottles of lager up each other’s arses and drinking the man of the match’s urine takes its toll on the players.
2019, right?Final the 2nd of November
I'll have to skip my Christmas shopping that day to watch it.
Tags ain’t working bruv, only saw this by pure chance.
No btw, egg chasing is for wools.
Only the League version, Mate.
Table booked at the pub tomorrow for the game, shame the company has a zero tolerance. But at least I’m catching the game.
A lot being made of the shoulder charge on Farrell. It was nasty and deserved a red and a ban, but it's interesting to see the uproar in the English (British) media when they've completely ignored Farrell's own no-arms tackles in the past.
So a no arms tackle is the same as dropping a shoulder to the head?
back in your hole, mole.
Yes, a no arms tackle can be a shoulder charge, which Farrell has been guilty of in the past including to players heads.
and Farrell’s no arms tackles weren’t shoulder charges from last Autumn.
Don’t get me wrong, not legal but sin bin at most.
The SA one was horrendous no idea how he got away with it.
Yes this one on him was probably a bit worse but again I'm just picking out the difference in reporting and pundit coverage.
Why bring something up from a year ago when the laws have been altered since then?
I was at the SA game, and in real time he was stood up straight the SA player stepped him and slipped into his shoulder. Granted Farrell didn’t wrap, but it’s in no comparison to the tackle yesterday.
