Experienced commentator weighs in on Eben Etzebeth's verdict

So they’re saying that either the ban should be arbitrarily extended beyond the time decided by the disciplinary panel in order to include Test matches, or that the player should be able to play for his club immediately but sit out Test matches to serve the ban?

Sounds like a poorly thought through position!

Late George Hendy try sees Northampton nick win in France

They already have that qualifying method, more or less, with the league splits, it’s a balance between how much they can push the limits to generate revenue vs keeping the format tight and engaging for fans. As things stand, engagement is losing.

What Tony Johnson is hearing about the vacant All Blacks assistant role

Agree with Tony, the attack coach is critical and the AB's have not had one this year.

Also need 3 new number 10's to direct the team.

But it’s more than 12 weeks, it’s 12 matches which takes us in to April. It’s actually 18 weeks that he’s out for.

Much quicker, apparently. According to Van Graan one of the quickest at Bath - back or forward (obviously excluding Arundell).

Late George Hendy try sees Northampton nick win in France

When it was the Heineken Cup there was a contracted requirement to field your strongest team to maintain the integrity of the Home & Away formats. Since it became the Investec and this strange qualifying, they have damaged the integrity of the competition.

If they want the SA teams in there, they should go to regional qualifying (English teams, URC (ex SA), French Teams & SA and then the winners can do a straight play off.

Great to see more media commentators and presenters with some harsh feedback about a disgusting and terrible incident! I agree with their point about players serving their time with missing domestic/club games and then coming back roaring for the test arena.

How England are building the foundations for World Cup success in 2027

It was interesting to watch the Investec games this weekend having discussed all the various players in this article.

Obviously the WILL STUART injury looks a bad one and I expect he will be out for the rest of the season but was good to see Fasogbon put in a strong showing for Gloucester vs Castre, who will likely be the beneficiary, as did SEB ATKINSON in the same game.

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.
