Its another part of RR's stuff http://www.rugbyrama.fr/rugby/top-14/2013-2014/top-14-steyn-lydiate-ioane.-les-flops-de-la-saison-2013-2014_sto4290821/story.shtml

And the flops of the season--- Morne Steyn-held out by Jules Plisson all year (who says the foreigners stop young French talent!) Dan Lydiate-only had 11 games JP Barraque-Off to La Rochelle for the next season Digby Ioane Soane Tonga'uiha A ne pas oublier : Bryan Habana (Toulon), Stephen...

I assumed them saying it was just pending the medical meant that negotiations were done and it was just awaiting the last formality (although I suppose at his age the medical isn't as much of a formality). Apologies for jumping the gun!

Harinordoquy to Toulouse http://www.lequipe.fr/Rugby/Actualites/Harinordoquy-a-choisi-toulouse/472466

I took French in middle school because the class went to France and Spain on a spring break trip, kept it up through HS and some of college. My sister was in Lyon for a little while so got to travel out there and visit her, ended up in the country for the '06 world cup which was pretty awesome...

So at best, they will have Chiocci, Tillous-Borde and Bastareaud as French 1st XV players (maybe Suta)? Feel bad for guys like Bruni and Gunther, bid your time, play bit parts and then they just bring in Gorgodze and Vosloo.

Indeed, je peux lire ze French. Alas, my composition and oral communication skills leave a lot to be desired. Does Alex Tolou's lone 7's cap for NZ lock him out from being French qualified? Find it odd that he apparently doesn't have any XVs caps. France could field a super 'French' backrow of...

Dieux du Stade is hilarious. Thought it was pretty insane that the fan voting on RR has the top tighthead, hooker, loosehead, lock, flanker and 8th man as Toulon players. Chiocci, Burden, Haymans, Bakkis, Smith, Stefon. Kockott is beating Tillous-Borde by 1% thus far.

And would need oxygen after like ten minutes of play. NFL players are insanely anaerobically conditioned and would take a lot of work to be able to go for a 40 minute half. Also as a football to rugby convert who played with a lot of football to rugby converts, the amount of times they'd get...

Someone just literally wrapped up and tackled the player trying to tackle 36 after he fielded the ball off the post. I hate how bad rugby is with head injuries. God its stupid, you can't have a player wobbling around drunk on the field playing...

Ugly Leinster match to watch, so bland with ball in hand. They have a surprising amount of trouble retaining their own ball, my unofficial count as I watched was 5 penalties on offensive rucks and at least 3 clean turnovers given up.

PlanetRugby says BOD picked up a mild calf strain in training this week. Is there any valid reason why Sheridan isn't starting over Williams?

He was born to a French parent and presumably has been a French citizen his whole life through that.

Haven't watched as much of Super Rugby as usual so don't know if I'll be able to think of a full team, but my shot... 15- Piutau [Anscomb also been playing at a really impressive level] 14-Poki 13-Ranger 12- Robert Eberson 11-Savea 10-Lealiifano has been pretty impressive but playing 12...

Why has Hoffman kicked away every possession with incontestable boxkicks in the last 10 minutes :(? Freddie's the man!!

^I read in one of the articles about this that WRS said they got told by adidas they aren't allowed to ship there. Absolutely ridiculous pricing, hope no one in NZ pays that price for it, no shirt can possibly be worth that. The Rebel sports guy said they might be selling it at the ~$110ish...

Isn't it something like the SR franchises can protect a certain amount of players from their smaller domestic unions and then the remaining players become free agents? Hawke's Bay is a Hurricanes franchise I'm pretty sure.

As said by just about everyone, mouth guard is an absolute most at all times. The last 7s tourny I played in my friend chipped off half his front tooth and had to go around like an idiot for a few weeks. Absolutely vital. I wear shoulder pads in most games/heavy contact sessions, though I...

Tore his hamstring about 10-15 minutes into the game receiving a pass.
