Pleasure to be at Kingaton Park to see Newcastle take their first steps as Red Bulls. Even got to see an old Embra man in Murray McCallum score a try on his 50th appearance for them

Jamie Hodgson on brand for his debut

Guess where I am?

Really enjoyed Scotland v Fiji there. Great game of rugby.

Playing catch up rugbywise and just saw Aussies beat SA. Never would have believed that result was coming after 20 minutes. Still not that impressed with Oz team tbh. Im willing to bet this was an anomaly. 2 caps now for Boan Venter. This one was just like he was playing for Edinburgh.

Delighted to see Red Bull take over at Newcastle be officially announced. The loss of the Falcons part of the name perhaps a small price to pay for the investment & hopefully success. I've been to kingsholm when Edinburgh played there. Great ground and atmosphere. Good luck Newcastle Red Bulls

Wrote a bit about the Lions from someone who's only seen two tours. open.substack.com/pub/scrumsag...

Boan getting a start for Springboks. Delighted for him but disappointed also

Well done Scotland U20s for sticking in. The only time I've actually cheered at the end of a rugby match this summer.

Scotland U20s with a good start v Ireland. 3 tries at 30 odd minutes and denied a full length try by a foot in touch that was otherwise a cracker

Anyone got a number for the Fiji police? I'd like to report Scotlands attack missing. It was last seen around 0402hrs BST this morning.

admittedly, I've had to watch the Lions games on catchup so far as opposed to live but its all been very disjointed. I get that to an extent but i've also been pretty bored. It may just be the lack of jeopardy cos I know the result but its been pretty tedious watching.

Bonne chance Toulouse

An Edinburgh Rugby season review for your perusal. A few stats, some facts and and my appraisal on how it went . open.substack.com/pub/theburgh...

Am no Munster fan but Henrikse is a prick and Sharks deserve to lose here.

Stats, opinion, facts and pure conjecture on the subject of Bulls v Edinburgh

George Turner is not the prodigal son. He might be the prodigal father seeing as he's 32 but I'll bet he still gives away brain fart penalties and his throwing in isn't an improvement on what we've got. Not getting the euphoria.

Record win for Edinburgh v Ulster. Our biggest margin, most points and only time we've beaten them with 7 tries. Now let's see what else happens this weekend

I'll take these results right now. Who do I speak to?

Eyes on the prize

Tongue in cheek from the always funny G Love but if you are an Edinburgh supporter and this is even close to your thinking give your head a wobble and your ticket to someone else. 'Mon the gunners

A look back at the shared history between Bath and Edinburgh and a look at the teams for the big game. open.substack.com/pub/theburgh...

What is the saying? A draw is like kissing your sister? Well that was like the dog licking your face and then remembering as nice as that feels he licks his asshole on a hourly basis. Edinburgh teetering on the edge but maybe just holding on!

A look back at the Sharks and a look forward at the Bulls. A mention of Die Hard and James Lang, possibly unrelated. open.substack.com/pub/theburgh...

Bath it is then. Looked a bit weak today. Should be straightforward

I wrote a bit a few weeks ago on why I think coaching is an issue for the Scottish women. I think it probably still stands giving the results from this 6n. open.substack.com/pub/scrumsag...

So I've been working today, anything exciting happening at all? Anyone?

A look ahead to Edinburgh v Bulls on Saturday. Also read if you want to know which hooker has scored the most tries for the club. open.substack.com/pub/theburgh...

If you can't win more than one line out in 4 you are just wasting your time.

Edinburgh marginally ahead at HT v Benetton. I'll take it but we need to sort out the lineout which probably means a change at 2. Ridiculous yellow for Muncaster. I've been in more danger opening a head height kitchen cupboard
