I though the final was a cracking advert for weight grade rugby.
The forwards were just colossal. I don’t think it’s sustainable.
It has become a different game from even a few years ago.

Captain Kaino lifts his first domestic trophy, poor bastard after 15 (? I think) years with the blues! But good on him, a great generational player, we still miss him!

A no-deal Brexit could bring plenty of negative consequences for English rugby, although Premiership clubs have received welcome news on player eligibility.

Aaron Cruden will stay as "World Cup cover" with Montpellier at least until November this year. After that he'll be free, either to come back to NZ or to take up a contract elsewhere, for example, in Japan.
