So predictions; Sarries to win and Welsh to keep A-A's glass empty, with a ground up fag butt in it. Europe; Sarries,Quins,Tigers,Sharks.

(pours out a little liquor for banned homies localish to himself)

Absent friends! *Clink*

Welsh really have been thrown in to the [s]tiger pit[/s] deep end from the start, haven't they?

Salaries look a good bet to win, I'd agree.

Off to watch a very young Ulster take on Glasgow tonight. Should be a good one.

Sarries for the Prem win

I predict Welsh to be relegated and most of it to be very dull.

Want Gloucester to do well, always a good place to visit and the Shed is endlessly entertaining.

Hope London Welsh survive but it will be tough.

Anything bad that can happen to a team let it happen to the saints, just the vilest shower of sh1t to ever grace a rugby field.

In the Rabo the mighty Ospreys are in Italy tonight.

Off to Kingsholm tomorrow with my 1 yr old. Not sure what to expect this season as have not been keeping tabs on things, being on fan strike since the debacle of last winter.

amen to that. Its a shame as I have always thought of their fans as a step above the Leicester rabble.

Have Glaws not signed Jimmy Cowan this season? I would love Welsh to survive, the debacle over whether the premiership should respect the fact they won their league smacks of a lot of the football premiership. Rabo-wise, it would be nice to see Embra build on the Lager cup.

.....sort of. They didn't actually win the league, just the play offs. Having said that, I am pleased that they're getting their opportunity. Only fair really.

And there is your problem Surfer... ๐Ÿ˜€ I am also afraid you need to watch a certain very tall Scottish bloke as well for that sort of thing....

I thought he was stood in a hole when standing next to the Leinster number 5 last week, Devin Toner!
Grey played well though.

Always liked the simple "Crouch, touch, engage" as a 1, 2, 3. Simple. Works. No need to interpret the "pauuuuuuusssssssssssse" rubbish. Dum, Dum, Dum. Simple.

Seems that Afoa isn't aware of this falling over you speak of. Ulster pack going through the Glasgow props at a rate of knots

Any chance we could change the thread title to reflect that it's not just the Permiership as well? ๐Ÿ˜‰

Y'know, there's the Rabo and then the FizzyLager Cup too. ๐Ÿ™‚

What is this Premiership? Is it a league that doesn't send teams to the latter stages of the beer cup ๐Ÿ˜€

Will miss TJ panting over Edinburg ๐Ÿ™ he could start a argument in a empty telephone box but was good value on the rugby thread ๐Ÿ˜€

Is this going to be the season thread?

O's not going great in Italy

Either the Treviso mid field are utter shit or Ashley Beck is the new messiah.

I think so, hence my request for a title change!

Ashley Beck is the new messiah.

He's certainly impressed me recently, but Treviso aren't really that special in midfield, to be fair!

Ulster beat Glas 18-10. Scrappy affair but some good young outside backs making Ulster debuts. Ospreys away next week!!

As one of the Leicester rabble, would be good to see them actually take some silverware this year, however if Sarrecans have discovered that sometimes attacking rugby can let you win, then expect them to to very well whilst loosing there 6 remaing fans on the way. Welsh to go straight back down, Northampton and Hairyquims to fill the top four.
