Am hearing that Jersey’s players woke to a text message from the club, sent at 5.30am telling them to come down to the club for a 7.30am meeting which is when the bad news was delivered. Players and staff must be broken that it’s come to this.

Ten years ago Dylan Hartley got 11 weeks for verbally abusing the referee and missed a Lions tour. Johnny Sexton, guilty on all 3 counts of being ‘confrontational, aggressive, disrespectful and hostile’ to all 3 match officials, gets off with 3 matches. Lucky, lucky, lucky.

Funny how we get excellent teachers and nurses for £30k and rubbish MPs for £80k.

To clarify. Again. OUR community game welfare proposals recommend ‘ARMPIT’ as maximum tackle height. Lowers contact area from head but gives players realistic option in the dynamic tackle situation. And can be applied game-wide. Community proposals: bit.ly/3HpTajg

The backlash about the RFU waistline tackle law was to be expected, and clearly fuelled by the feeling it’s an unjustified attack on a game played and loved by many. But through the red mist we mustn’t lose sight of those suffering like this amateur yesterday (with permission).

The replies suggest this has gone down pretty well.
🏉To support player welfare, RFU Council agreed on Monday 16th January to lower the height of the tackle across the community game (Age Grade & Adult) from 1st July 2023 Find out more about the law change, including rationale, next steps & training support to be provided⬇️

2000+ rugby folk watched the longest enduring rugby fixture in world rugby history yesterday when @RedruthRugby played @cambornerfc at Redruth with the Reds coming out on top 36-26. Huge thanks to everyone who came to watch a great local derby.
