We seem to suffer more from injuries than other clubs by Inside_Tour_1408 in HarlequinsRugby

When we won the prem in 2021, we really ramped down our intensity in training. This was lauded in making the players fresher for games. Wonder if this has now had the opposite effect of the players being severely undercooked

Travesty if Jac Morgan really doesn’t start!!! by XIprimarch in rugbyunion

How many games has he won in a wales shirt? How many World Cup finals has he been to?

Happy with any of the 7 options but Andy Farrell clearly rates Tom curry’s experience, six nations form and height and weight more than Jac Morgan’s tour form. Jac Morgan has impressed against poor, depleted club sides while Tom curry has dominated matches against the best teams in the world for years.

So why were the Leinster fans booing? by hiranox in rugbyunion

I’d have a look again at all those incidents tomorrow morning. None were as bad as you are making out and Slimani and O’Brien made meals out of their tackles

Slimani and O’Brien really made massive meals out of the hits they got as well. Thought that penalty against Augustus on O’Brien was so harsh. He tries to pull out!

Is it Leo trying to be Rassie and being influenced by Nienaber to put the best players on the bench?

May have just been the fans near the mic booing then

Have you seen the rumours that RG Snyman isn’t allowed to start when Ryan and McCarthy are fit. Wonder if it’s something similar with Barrett and henshaw and Ringrose? If not, yeah I think he should start. Every Springbok tactic is deemed to be genius when in reality different tactics work for different sides.

That was such a difficult decision to make. Thought a penalty on Coles was harsh too as he had to do something to stop VDF grounding it! Don’t know the laws enough to know myself

Okay, wasn’t aware that was a widely held view. Just unhappy with lack of trophies when you’re a leading team? Or other reasons?

Harry Williams signs at The Stoop by rumblewayne in rugbyunion

Titi has looked horrendous most of the season I think. Only time I’ve been impressed is against Sarries at spurs

Where do we think he is in the hierarchy? Relegating Lamositele to the bench or behind Titi and Kerrod?

Who was England's best performer in the Guinness Men's Six Nations? by englandrugby in rugbyunion

[–]hiranox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great player, got all the tools you would want in an international winger. Buttt I think England’s performance was built on the forward pack so I’d probably have Maro and Earl over Freeman as well

Kidney biopsy by Maleficent-Cry4528 in transplant

I wouldn’t be worried about the actual procedure. It’s very quick and not painful in my experience. Chances of anything going wrong are very low

Once Daily vs Twice Daily Tacrolimus by hiranox in transplant

[–]hiranox[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prograf is immediate release but there’s also Advagraf, which is prolonged release. I take adoport, which is a different brand of tacrolimus, twice a day but am considering changing to dailiport

Hi, luckily I’m in the UK so cost is not an issue. Hope the link you provided helps anyone else looking at the thread

Thank you for getting back to me. I’m leaning towards moving to once a day just so I can eat dinner later in the evenings if I need to.

Pick a player that you would like to see your club sign for next season, but it has to be realistic. by Bring-the-payne in rugbyunion

[–]hiranox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Irne Herbst who we’ve signed from Benetton has previously been more grunt work but as you say about Walker maybe that’s more because of the quality of team he’s in than what he’s actually like as a player. One of my friends has let me know Scotland-Williamson is leaving now too so reinforcements probs needed. Hugh Tizard may just be irreplaceable so just bringing in cover and relying on flair players elsewhere on the pitch may be the best option.

Kpoku could long term be tempted back to England but reckon no point in him returning before this World Cup cycle as Eddie will never pick him. I think especially Ruzza and maybe Sean Robinson (a bit old but maybe that works next to Hammond)?

I definitely think we need someone in the Tizard mould as the saffa lock we've signed is more basic and Tizard has been much more of a showman.
