Where are you this weekend - 2022/23?

[smeagol]

Likely last run-out until March

AR2 for the regional Mens Div 2 championship (Lemont, IL) - Eastside Banshees vs Chicago Blaze

As is tradition, temps will be around freezing, and 10-20mph winds most of the day.

this weekend again my game is within walking distance

All games are within walking distance....it's just that some could be a very, very long walk.

last week 25 mins (but I confess I actually drove as the weather was so horrible), next week about 8 mins.

Physically, yes. Logistically, Google Maps puts my upcoming trip at 53 hours of walking (350mi RT drive).

This weekend I am AR2 again at:-

Nat 2 North

Hull Ionians v Chester

3rd v 5th so should be good (he says) or difficult/challenging?

 

[Flish]

Jarrovians vs Houghton (Bottom vs Top) in Counties 3 DN - Home team average a 4 - 60 loss over 7 games this season.

 

[Ciaran Trainor]

Counties 1 Cumbria L 7 Millom v Hawcoat Park. 8th v 7th, no relegation or promotion to worry about so hopefully a good game as despite the rain the sand-based pitch will be perfect.
Trains on, Early kick off to watch England game, RL and/or RU. Should be a good day!

 

[Phil E]

No game for me this weekend, I shall be down in London marching past The Cenotaph for remembrance day.

I was in Adelaide airport today, flying home from neuropsychology testing.

Everything - and I mean absolutely everything - came to a stop as they read out "they shall not grow old", the live bugler playing taps. Best observed minute of silence I can remember.

Buggermebuttocks! That's a lot. At home too! Poor old Jarrovians.
109-0 is the best (or is it worst?) I've presided over.

Crikey, thats a heck of a score. On the basis of 19 tries, if each conversion took a minute and it took a minute or so to retrieve the ball and trudge back to the half-way line after each conversion, thats almost an entire half without the ball in play. So Houghton were running them in roughly every two minutes. Most exhausted person at the game was probably the one operating the twitter feed

169-0, in a "friendly." 27 tries, 17 kicks.

Did have 127-7 earlier this year in a league match.

 

[Ciaran Trainor]

Nowhere for the next few weeks, pulled hamstring 30 minutes into my game Saturday!
Fortunately there was a ref on the touchline to take over.
