NZ definitely bottled it at key moments. Two interceptions, a failure to score more when up 13 v 12 ... sport is about taking your chances and they blew it.

Is Trevett's release really related? He's played only 2 minutes of first XV rugby in the last two seasons so he's really failed to break into the Bristol starting XV. Still, only 21, so he's still a young man. I hope he goes well.

Again, we should reiterate that she denies all charges and she deserves a fair hearing This is less about her and more about how segments of the media seem to be working hard to keep this story as quiet as possible Imagine she wasn't a Right-leaning, White lecturer with strong media connections?

again, a key reason why we can't have serious conversations about poverty, & food insecurity, is because of the charity sector. Always absolving government for creating poverty, and pumping out feel-good missives about how YOU can help put temporary bandaids on systemic wounds

Ozharvest post saying we need MOAR food banks to solve poverty, instead of idk, a government policy that doesn't starve people

I see that Colomiers Rugby have withdrawn from X. They join four Top 14 teams - ASM, LOU, Bayonne and UBB. It's good to see - yet again - French clubs leading the way with ASM's communications director specifically calling out X for its divisive atmosphere. Let's hope more clubs follow suite.

Or, in other words, he donated 0.0274% of his wealth. The median wealth of a US citizen is US$192,900, so the equivalent of 0.0274% is: $192,900 x 0.000274 = $52.85 So yeh, the dice is *that* loaded. He just donated the equivalent of some loose change he found down the back of the sofa.

That sort of sloppiness is born of a bad attitude - the same attitude that saw sloppiness in the second half against Zebre. Get the attitude right against Zebre, and you're ready to take on Leinster. The team might not win, but they'll be a lot more competitive.

One ton of diesel is approximately equal to 7.5 barrels. 500,000 tons of diesel is 3,750,000 barrels. US consumes 4,000,000 barrels a day. Even if Russia delivers this amount, that's less than 1 days' worth of consumption. That'll be gone in 23hrs. Don's scamming again. www.eia.gov/outlooks/ste...

So the only tool the RBA can use is to up interest rates so the poor can't spend, go out, eat etc? Why aren't the billionaires hit in any way whatsoever? What about a tax on unjustified price increases? Share profits? Why only hit the poor?

"More interesting" is a puzzling phrase. The bottom line is that EPRC doesn't have a big enough TV deal so teams don't get enough money from the competition. And with the SA teams involved costs are up. I'm surprised the French are still interested.

That’s an explanation of the current status quo, not why the status quo can’t change. I’d also argue that soccer attracts a very different demographic. Certainly, some French clubs were only attracting similar numbers some seasons ago, so if the product is right …
