Would this England squad take their place in history – in a … More England v Fiji – The RWC – Event 132
Is Event 131 an event in its own right? Maybe not, and I wasn’t going to write a separate piece, but sorting my photos out I think it probably deserves to stand alone. With 16 World Cup games to go to It’s going to be hard to keep up so I may well be brief … More The Rugby World Cup Opening Ceremony – Event 131

At £25.00 for an afternoon of international rugby at The Stoop it was as they say, a no brainer. I donned jeans, for the first time in … More Canada v Fiji – Event 126
In the week leading up to this innovative fixture in London I thought I’d bought myself a ticket for England RU v Ireland only to find I hadn’t. I decided I really wanted to support Wigan in their bid to draw a crowd to Millwall for their Super 8’s clash against Les Catalans so got … More Wigan Warriors v Les Catalans – Event 125
