World Cup Training Squad

[Mellsblue]

I guess I’m too old school. Clive always used to bang on about a good scrap once in a while being a good thing.

On the field, yes.

[Banquo]

One too many such incidents, I'd suggest. Something wrong about the training environment perhaps?

something wrong with them, more like. They aren't children.

[p/d]

Just a shame Francis wasn’t with them

Quite. Besides, this happened during a social function apparently.

[Which Tyler]

Yeah, social function for team bonding, not training ground scrap with people trying too hard to prove themselves.
Not a good look, and a second strike for Te'o IIRC.

I guess I'll find injury discussion in a different thread

I dont think much has been said about the injuries, although Eddie did say all 3 will get chances in the coming games, which implies that;

a) they’ll all be in the squad and,
b) they’re not too injured

[Which Tyler]

I hadn't seen that, good news all around (especially for Ruaridh). Presumably bad news for Nowell though - unless he's allowed a dispensation to name an injured player, and keep playing his replacement until then - buys him a bit of time I guess

Doesn't need to actually name the squad for a while, this is just the RFUs announcement.

[Which Tyler]

Ah, fair enough

[Freddo]

So even though the squad is announced tomorrow can changes be made before the deadline if players who are named don't recover from injury?

[Mellsblue]

Yep. It’s a Jones self imposed deadline.

[Freddo]

Yep. It’s a Jones self imposed deadline.

Cheers.
