Gazing at life through a haze of opiates, I’m intensely relaxed about not getting a proper blog post up, and just giving you the matches.
But I will add an emphatic TSK!* that the Cardiff and Ulster matches have yet again been scheduled at the same time.
*This is more vehement than a PFFT!

What’s the feeling on how Lousi is going? Saw him at Ravenhill. Big, big lad.

Think Exeter will squeak it but should be a good game.

I think it’s a mistake. Midol was probably printed before the list appeared!😊
Raka is not in Rugbyrama or l’Equipe list.
Raka ‘s omission is indeed considered a surprise as little known players such as Cordin, Rattez, Ngandebe or Etien are in that list.

Enzo :What’s the feeling on how Lousi is going?
Well spotted. Over -the-moon happy with Lousi, big lad with the massive bonus of not giving lots penalties/cards away (Ratuva). Let’s not jinx this now. The pack may be able to get parity with Toulon which gives us a chance.

The Weedge teamsheet is not attractive but is functional.
The fun is buying Bronski Beat t-shirts. Which I’m doing now.

He didn’t take much spotting. It’s a rare fella who stands out on the pitch in pro rugby just for pure size and/or dynamism.

Speaking of which, when we played at Clermont in that barn burner at home a few seasons ago, I was happy ahead of time because Fritz Lee had a knock and couldn’t play. I’d never heard of his replacement, figured it would be a step down. Well, we’ve all heard of Peceli Yato now. He is outrageous in the flesh. Absent this weekend which is a boon. They’ve had to pick *checks notes* Fritz Lee. Oh.
