Cheslin Kolbe has just drained a 50-metre drop-goal in the Top 14 final. He belongs in a comic book at this point.
GIF- Calling a scrum from a mark is beyond alpha.
- Full exchange between Ellis Genge and Afo Fasogbon after the final whistle. Think Genge signs off with "you were fucking great". Wholesome United.
00:00 - For someone who palpably loves representing England as much as Owen Farrell to voluntarily step away from doing so should reinforce what he’s had to confront and absorb, some of which has been appalling. Frankly, it should leave people feeling pretty cold.
- "No, no, genuinely; 24-3". Cameras just caught Jamie George informing Theo Dan of the Saracens-Gloucester score.
GIF - This (via @EnglandRugby Instagram) is a great angle to show the movement of Elliot Daly and how that manipulates Nolann le Garrec and France's short side defence. Fin Smith's direction and communication really clear as well.
00:00 - Eben Etzebeth with the rugby equivalent of putting his foot on the ball to calm things down and consolidate on the back of a turnover before accelerating into contact and dictating the tempo. Some player.
00:00 - Asher Opoku-Fordjour coming on for a Test debut and Japan kicking a restart out of the full to give him a scrum immediately... and how he cannot help but grin as teammates gee him up. Really cool.
00:00 - Courtney Lawes, 79 minutes into the last game of a season that started in 1983: - Tackle on the drift - Up to counter-ruck with Owen Farrell and back-heel to win the turnover - On his feet again to carry (after some more work from Joe Heyes at scrum-half 💅)
GIF - There was a turnover for a delayed box-kick last Friday at Kingsholm. Adam Leal asks Aled Davies to use the ball at 13.11, blows up at 13.20. Not harsh, and just an easy win for the whole sport if it continues to happen.
