England vs Ireland 6 Nations 2018

[Thebumble]

Didn't make it through pre season this season.

I think I'm done. I might turn up for training now and again but I'll not get a match I don't think.

Any sort of standard?

Just curious that’s all

Most of the Irish football team of the 90's and 00's probably hadn't even been to Ireland before discovering they were eligible to play for them because an ancestor once owned an irish setter

Ireland’s loosehead probably has the talent to be an elite level power lifter if he didn’t have to train for an endurance sport.

Andrew Sheridan, borderline elite powerlifter and ran a sub 12 second 100m, weighing over 20 stone.

That’s got to be a complete myth, or he did it when he was about 16 and nowhere near as big. I’m a Sale fan and have great difficulty imagining that happening

Just like the Jonah Lomu 10.6 100m happened when he was about 16 and nowhere near his playing weight.

His alleged 225kg bench is excellent for someone who was supposed to be able to run, tackle and scrunmage for 60-80 mins though. Didn’t squat as much as Cian Healy does.
