I have just got to U15s which is when I believe scouts for Yorkshire look at players. I play for a very successful school but not a private one, I also play for a successful club. I play as prop and was wondering what scouts would look for, I'm assuming they'd turn up and watch big games (cup finals, cup matches, against big oppositions) although was wondering how I could make myself stand out (I play front row, loose or tight head) thank you very much

Any help appreciated, I'm quite a strong runner and scrummager although if anyone could give any tips as in where I'm meant to be on the field at all times, how to read where I'm meant to be etc? Thank you

Hi, I play front row and sometimes after playing I will have a pain in my shoulder blade/ back where my shoulder is. It's happened before although usually goes away after a few days, I train back at the gym and shoulders so they aren't weak, I wonder if it's the pressure of a scrum or landing on it funny although it hurts to move my arm but not enough where I can't move it, it's just annoying. Does anyone know what causes it, how I can prevent it or how I can heal it faster? Thanks

I play for a pretty good state school and a decent club but live far away from all the prem clubs. If I wanted to get scouted by a premiership team, would my best bet be playing for a university such as Bath? Or playing for the first team of my club? I'm moving to u15s and was asked to move clubs from one to my new one after playing a match but if I did want to go and play premiership should I play for a uni team or a team such as London Scottish? Thanks

We are a family of two adults two children. My son’s 9th birthday is 2 Nov and he desperately wants to go and see Eng v NZ for his present, so I bought two FXV memberships for me and my husband, allocated one membership to him and added him to my network. We both entered the ballot for two tickets each. I was successful but my husband wasn’t, so now only one of us gets to go with my son for his birthday and my daughter will miss out. So my question is, how do families get to go and see ballotted matches?

From around 2017 I had this signed but I was young and didn't even know who was signing it, any help please 😂

G'day mates,

I just find it quite interesting and want to hear your views!

Ta!

What’s the best way to get a free stream of this? Gutted to see it’s on sky sports and not RPTV like the Japan game

The last three fixtures between the two teams have resulted in L W D. England narrowly losin out 16-15 in 2018, before convincingly beating the ABs in the 2019 WC semi 19-7, and then staging a massive comeback to draw 25-25 in 2022. A lot has changed since then, though. How does everyone foresee the tour panning out? We've also done a preview of the mid-year fixtures below, if anyone is interested

What are everyone’s thoughts on the England team to face Japan? Looks like he has gone strong rather than testing out a few players before NZ

Anyone here heading to Tokyo for the match this coming weekend? I live in Seoul so I'm just popping over to Tokyo for the weekend, as you do. If anyone knows of any particular locations where fans will be meeting up for a beer beforehand please share the intel!

I know this has been done to death but we missed out on Stephon who chose money (totally fair enough), but let's not have this happen again. I know Jack Willis had no choice but to change club but the extension with his French club kills the deal...

Jack Willis is a B&I Lions starter right now. Faz will pick him to tour Aus.

England's world cup side will massively benefit just from him being in the squad. Ireland made an exception for ROG, we need to with Jack. I believe the justification is there over Stephon because his hand was forced initially and at that point he had chosen to stay in England.

Do you folk agree or disagree? Did he give up the ghost when he signed the extension? Does he still warrant picking as moving clubs was not his first choice?

Toulouse and the Sharks emerge victorious. Did you catch the action? More banter in the pod here
