Tbf, I was confused by the wording and your joke clarified it for me.

I'm trying to square away what the difference is between this and George RR Martin reading Homer and Tolkien and others and then producing A Song of Ice and Fire..

Your analogy works. Very niche, but it works.

Do tim tams even have jokes?

I'm not pretending to know but I always thought international coach is a great gig if you need some flexibility in your life. There must be chunks of the year where the time commitment is very low.

Obviously it's his life and he does know avout the intensity of the role but, after the job he's done with Australia and Ireland, it's rugby's loss if he were to retire.

I think the Italy game will be the final straw but they won't announce that Gatland is going until the end of the tournament.

Yes, you will have a lovely time I expect...

Egg on your face Olap. A stunning tactical masterclass from Gats and Howlers proved you completely wrong.

The UK water example is spot on. £50 billion debt put in and coincidentally virtually the same amount distributed as dividends.

Leaks and water wastage everywhere, prices rising dramatically and sewage in the rivers and on the beaches.

 

I just thought this was such a ridiculous take by a man who was one of the most respected referees of his time.

It cheapens the respect that referees are afforded when you equate their integrity on the pitch with sporting administrators mismanaging a union for personal gain.

Is RFCLA the successor to the giltinis or whatever they were called?

That will be a good test for you given the form of the French domestic teams at the moment. Hopefully you have reason to celebrate in Paris afterwards.

I'm trying to be hopeful but Gats really hasn't given me much to work with. I hope I'm surprised, but the opening France game will definitely be a write off.

Good luck, it will be an adventure! I've lived around the UK, so happy to offer any insights if needed.
