What a try by @gloucesterrugby who beat Bristol 44-41 tonight #BRIvGLO
Is that an early try of the season contender? 😯
Freddie Thomas finishes off a sensational @gloucesterrugby move with the third try in the opening 18 minutes 🔥

A great player for @lansdownefc and was part of our first ever AIL winning squad in 2012/13. Best of luck Marty - you’ve earned the break.
Marty Moore has announced his retirement.
A great servant of the game who was part of Ireland’s 2014 & 2015 Championship wins.
Thanks for all the great days Marty.

David Bowie took the stage in 2000 at the famous Glastonbury in order to perform a classic of himself, Life On Mars.
It's been 24 years since this live performance took place and it still gives goosebumps to everyone who listens and watches David Bowie onstage.

Raoul, a reporter once asked Jimi Hendrix, “How does it feel to be the best guitarist in the world?” Hendrix shrugged and replied, “I don't know, ask Rory Gallagher.” So, you can add the late great @rorygallagher to the list. As for the eejits at the @RollingStone 🤔

“What a MOMENT.”
Argument breaks out in the Gold Medal Beach Volleyball match between Canada and Brazil.
Tensions are high so the French DJ decides to play ‘Imagine’ to calm it all down.
Brilliant.

Race breakdown of that 400m final:
Adeleke hit 200m in 23.29.
Ultimately, the difference between her and the medallists is doing that last 50m in 7.26 when they were all 6.9-7.0.
The medallists are 26, 26 and 27.
She's 21.
That last part will come - with time and training.

I cannot describe this man with the words that I have but I hope this live performance will give you the right words for him.
Rory Gallagher performing 'Shadow Play' live at Montreux, Switzerland, 1979. He's seen as one of the most talented guitar players by the people who know him.
Let's leave the talent aside, let's talk his love of playing music. Let's talk his humbleness. Let's talk his amazing interaction with the audience. Let's talk his unstoppable energy on the stage. Then we can talk his talent because the music you listen to should come from the bottom of the heart.
The ones we spend time listening to produced music with their life experiences. Rory is another one of them and he is criminally underrated.
Life didn't let Rory to be with us in this time but his legacy will always be lived here in this world by people like me and you.
If any of you didn't have a chance to listen to his playing and music, come on, you're missing so much.
