The problem here is that if I find an NGO scientist out birding, fishing or even privately talking to me about their opinions and biases - say RSPB scientists whom many are friends - do we then consider all their work shoddy - no we don't and of course shouldn't. Petty. Childish.

When will the penny drop? When will reality intrude on the vainglorious schemes of the SRU development placemen? You nourish promising young players by playing them alongside grown-ups - not against them. Another catastrophic indictment of yet another Murrayfield vanity project.

The Currie Chieftains players + wider club were at The Greenyards taking on Melrose Rugby... Result was irrelevant, the Malleny Park outfit were all thinking about their club mate + friend Grant Williamson Sport is about so much more than scores, it's about connection + friendship

Inspiring! Kids in state education need to be given a chance & teachers who see below the surface are worth their weight in gold 👏

Thinking about Right to Roam I really do think we’d be in a better place if more people had the opportunity to stalk deer, shoot geese, make fires, pick mushrooms, and fish. To be able to hunt nature and to eat it is such a source of richness and it inspires great appreciation

It's mad that France isn't a tour option for B&I Lions. Just gotta believe every midweek game would be a cracker, surely commercially would be a monster, France would go crazy for it, get a bit of Spain-Portugal in the mix, Test in Marseille too...

Just tried explaining to my six year old why Scotland don’t have a 7’s team anymore…whilst watching GB not make the Olympics…doesn’t even make sense with 6 year old logic…

Surely now makes sense to go back to home unions and make it a pathway (again). At least you have a base to start from with players who will at least come through system together. Really sorry state of affairs and sad to see on eve of Howden Melrose Sevens be brave Scottish Rugby

.World Rugby need to stand up here too, this was a golden egg 15 years ago and now a very sorry state. Celebrated Sir Gordon Tietjens and Bob Hogarth at the Howden Melrose Sevens hall of fame dinner last night and can’t believe this is where it’s got to!
