honestly united Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 2 hours ago, ajwffc said: last time I searched for budgets for the two sides Glasgow was just over the £5m mark and Edinburg just bellow that. Welsh clubs about the same apart from Dragons who get a lot less than the others. Irish sides are about the £7m mark apart from Leinster who pay about £10m a year Is that £5m budget or £5m in wages, as im sure the travel / accommodation / coching staff etc would take a chunk of the budget if that is the total budget.

S&C plays a huge part though, it doesnt matter how skillfull or well coached you are, if you are miles off it fitness and size wise as a team your not going to be winning, and your also impacting on the players development. Im not saying just go with the biggest and strongest, but you have got to be at least in the same ball park physically to compete In other news looks like Hastings is out of 6Nations - means we have another year of Kinghorn in the squad https://www.bbc.com/sport/rugby-union/64177528 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donathan Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Anyone know why the six nations scheduling is so lazy these days? This year we play England, then Wales, France, Ireland and finish with Italy. Last year was the exact same apart from switching the last two games over. 2021 was supposed to be the same as this year (Our game against France was rearranged) Feels like we almost always start with England. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAD Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Needs to hit that kick. Still started well. Were a bit unlucky I thought with the yellow and the Stormers try, as it came from a really shit advantage where I think we'd have preferred the knock on 20 yards up the pitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAD Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Has Brace given Glasgow anything here? First collapsed scrum and it's just a natural reaction for him to penalise the jocks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead unlucky not to score at the death there. Stormers have every right to be angry - they've sealed in the tackler by going off their feet at every breakdown, meaning Brace won't allow Glasgow to compete because the tackler hasn't rolled. They did nothing different there, and he penalised them! Be consistent, sir! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuipolotu did quite well by insisting on competing anyway and making it difficult for Brace to ignore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to be fair though, he actually gave Glasgow a penalty earlier on and the Stormers players were really, really shouting at him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
