We all have them.
Oh and Come on England. RWC certs for 2027. It’s a fact.
Lived in London in 2001, sign me up on the bandwagon !
But yeah, I've heard G Hastings interviewed, commentating etc plenty of times. He strikes me as being possibly a bit pompous and out of touch with the common man, Is his brother the same ? ( and again, I'm having a bit of a go at Scottish Rugby royalty here )
I couldn't stand Will Carling in the 90s but hearing him since then he's very witty, well spoken, not afraid to take the piss out of himself and just damn good fun. Breaks my heart when sportsmen I used to hate actually turn out ok. ( See also Austin Healey and loads of Australian cricketers )
Would definitely rather have a beer with Carling than G Hastings I have to say.

I ran into Carling on the way out of Twickenham following our dire performance against Wales in RWC 2015. Had a good chat about England’s selection and tactics for 20 minutes or so, when I went left to go to the pub and he went right to go and shag the gorgeous blonde he was with.
Seemed like a good bloke and likely had a better outcome than me that evening.

A great summary.
Sadly our sporting media has gone downhill dreadfully. It is so predictably uniform it could be AI generated. Our TV comms are universally shit, most of the support pundits on comms are biased, particularly the Scots and Irish ones - Scott Hastings is a disgrace and the after match interviews are just cringeworthy. Especially that Sonia woman, she can just fuck off completely.
Agreed.
But for balance, an Andrew Cotter/Ben Kay combination is arguably the best there is.

My Welsh mates who've met him post-match in Cardiff tell me he's a top bloke as well. Pity the RFU can't find a role for people like him - would be a big asset.
Press going OTT on Pollock today. Boy looks a talent, but think a sense of perspective is needed.

Typical UK media, build someone up based on not very much, then pull them down based on not very much. Pathetic really.

He’s already a very annoying cun* with a face which needs to be slapped vigorously and often
Good prospect though, but one I fear will fall into the Dombrandt camp
Give me double helpings of Curry please

Underhill not done and dusted either
can't believe i forgot him, he's the first name in the back row if fit

Vintcent for me
Biarrey will get it.
Incidentally, I watched a vid of Biarrey's 6N tries and I could have scored 6 of the 8.

@MiketheSnow Not bad at your age

Typical of you to ignore Huw Jones effort. Have some decorum man, he has a Welsh name at least.
Best try by far, should absolutely piss in.
-
Biarey's for me, a couple of outrageous bits of skill, a counter-ruck, some real pace. And his halfback tried to fuck it up.

Wales are a sinking ship and I think it will get a lot worse for them before they improve.
The young French winger was really impressive from the games I've seen.

Mike I reckon you could have scored six, possibly seven, of those tries
