Wasps Rugby Discussion / Re: Ex Wasps signing for new clubs
« on: January 15, 2024, 10:10:00 AM »Alfie Barbeary seems to be turning into a penalty machine - yellow card right at the beginning of the match and a red at the end. I used to hold him in high esteem, until he decided to play at 8. Now he seems to make bad decisions and has become a bit of a plonker. Shame.
FWIW: Red was due to a second yellow at the end of the game. He also scored a try. Didn't watch, so cannot comment on the actual cards themselves.

Thought he'd go on forever. Bacterial meningitis apparently.

According to Wikipedia, Stephen Lansdown is worth ?1.72 billion. If the club continues to lose 5 million per annum then he will go broke in 344 years.

I was very surprised when Charlie went to Tigs. However, he needed a job. I never thought he'd fit on there and so it has proved.

« on: December 19, 2023, 05:36:52 PM »That fits with what I'd heard. I note that there is no detail as to why the financial advisor failed to do as Derek instructed and how that caused the cascade of fuck ups that killed our club.
I guess that'll come out in the case itself.
Sadly, fuck ups generate a momentum all their own.

A welsh friend has been telling me how impressed he has been by Doggy. Makes him think of Scott Gibbs.

This thread prompted me to look at the table for the first time this season. Already looking grim for Falcons. Glos not a lot better. Poll on Shedweb (600+ votes), a coin toss whether Skivington should go or stay. Is relegation still on hold this season?

« on: December 02, 2023, 05:23:52 PM »Battle of the young Wasps 8s this afternoon - Barbeary vs Fisilau. Both playing really well. Also Elliot Stooke putting in his usual shift.
I see from the Beeb that Alfie scored twice in Bath's 41 - 24 victory over Exeter.
One of them here

Exeter defence was pitiful.

Thanks Roger. Looks interesting. I'll D/L and see if I can get it to work on my setup.
