Yes match day already. Batten down the hatches for another roller coaster.

20 odd mins in on Briz v Tigers and no red card! Swizz.

I'm expecting to see quite a few reds today. If not in our game, then there's a fair chance it'll be that famous legal tackler Farrell in the Wales game.  Somehow, Wales have perfected the art of beating 14-men sides this 6N with a side that many might have felt would struggle against a 15-man Italy.  That said, with a host of completely undercooked and out-of-form Estate Agents in the England team, Wales may not even need the one man advantage.

BT red button.

I don't have it on TV, just online, sadly. BTSports Extra 3. I just found it.

Can you predict a red card?

I used to sit next to the press-box at Loftus Rd. Against Richmond Derek Quinnell sat next to me whilst Scott was on the pitch playing. "How long before he is sent off for a high tackle?" I rather facetiously said to Derek. The answer was 14 minutes.

More recently I went to a dinner and was seated next to Scott. I brought this up, and he ordered another three bottles of red and said "that wasn't a high tackle. If I had done a real high tackle on Gomersall, it would have taken his f****** head off"

These red button commentators are very average.

First scrum, complete dominance.
I now predict that we win by 20-30 points

Sorry you shout Use it then six seconds later shout it again then shortly later once again. This makes a mockery of refereeing.

Which ever team starts to click first will take this. Both just not quite finishing off. I'm liking how well we're finding yards in open play though, and our defence is usually sending them back. I'd favour us slightly, but it's still down to who clicks first.
