England and Wales closed training session

England and Wales forwards pack are going head to head this morning in Bristol in what’s been described as an ‘intense’ forwards training sessions.

Although inter-team training sessions are more common at club and schools level, it’s a very rare occasion at international level.

However, this short piece of footage of the closed session has made it onto the internet, and seems to show one pack getting the better of the other.

Intense training from here in Bristol today!! @RugbyEng & @RugbyWal packs going at it FULL ON!! #RugbyUnited pic.twitter.com/wK7m5ekLUV

Stuart Lancaster's Connacht throw away 21-0 Challenge Cup lead

This is classic Connacht. When they were 21-0 up with a scrum 5m from 14 man Ospreys line a try would have finished it. A desperate scrum from Ospreys where Murphy inexplicably did not get the ball out of resulted in a penalty to Ospreys.

I should have bet the house on the Welsh team then. Anyway 5 mistakes in a row later and 14 man Ospreys were over for a red zone try the desperately needed and sure enough they used the wind to good effect. Connaught were not helped by injuries to two props which flipped a dominant scrum. Raging for not putting €100 on Ospreys once Connacht failed to score the 4th try.

Australia make statement in Cape Town decider against Black Ferns Sevens

Tough to be on top all the time. I have no doubt that the Ferns will repay the compliment when they next meet the Aussies. More concerned with the men’s team who appear to have slipped back again.

Johann van Graan's Bath wash away former side Munster in Champions Cup

Just got watching the match back. Bath looked very impressive but Munster never recovered from the poor start.

Bath seemed to know Munster would give up on the game early and just go for a try bonus. Left a very open game.

Captains should have a call to just give it up in the corner and concede the 5 PTS and less than evens chance the touchline conversion goes over.

It's always better than the full 7 PTS and yellow card.

'Don’t quote me': Leinster count injury toll of 'S-fight' win over Harlequins

Byrne has been developing well for the last while. He needs to have a realistic shot at Ireland senior caps to keep Sam on this toes. Even it's a two way battle at test level, those fly halves need to be pushed at club level with form.

It's pleasing that an out of form Leinster can still put 45 PTS on the board but they have much to work on.

Three talking points from Round 5 of the 2025/26 PWR season

I can’t see past Gloucester-Hartpury for the title. Saracens will be their final opponents. There are 5 other teams in the dogfight to make the top 4, but Trailfinders and Exeter will have to win a lot of their winter matches to build up a cushion as after 31 March and into any possible play-offs they will be depleted as they lose many of their overseas players that they rely on.

Late George Hendy try sees Northampton nick win in France

As I said, Toulouse is part of the exception. They won the first “Heineken cup” and was, before, at the begining of its création. So I think Toulouse fans have no préférence. Even if it is easier for fans to go to Top14 final in Stade de France than to a CC final often in Great Britain. But the next final in Bilbao is at equal distance and not far from Toulouse or Bordeaux, without talking of Bayonne or Pau..

Late George Hendy try sees Northampton nick win in France

How did Toulouse fans feel about each title when they won both Top14 and CC in the same year? Did they see Top14 as a far greater priority and achievement?

Late George Hendy try sees Northampton nick win in France

For french teams ,Top 14 is more important, except for Toulouse, Bordeaux, La Rochelle and Toulon. Others have not the same lot of quality players and make a choice. The first responsability, and for SA teams too, is because there are too many games… A day will come the TV broadcasters and fans will be tired…. And it's even worth in Challenge Cup…

The challenges for SA teams are tricky and it may not even be possible to fully level the playing field with them. French teams however should be different, what do you think would help?
