Re: Summer tour to Australia
He was complaining about how long we were taking regrouping before a scrum saying we were wasting time chatting away while someone was down injured, and then he said "fiddly di, fiddly di, potato", This appeared to be what he believed the Irish were saying to each other.

Re: IRB World Rankings
Australia will have at least 86.35 pts next week. (if they lose by >15pts to ENG) more likely to have 86.56. It is not possible for England, Ireland and Wales to all get above 86.35 during the 2017 6 nations. Australia are mathematicaly certain of being top seeds for the rwc19 draw, not even a yuge ...

...

I assume this is just a first shot in his desire to set up a league outside the control of the unions He says somewhere else in the interview that if he doesn't get approval then he might think about buying a club in England - I suspect that is his real agenda.

Re: The REAL League. The Interprovincials
Similar to the 1872 cup in Scotland we should keep a record of the Interpro league each year.
The welsh should do the same especially now they have the judgement day thing as the last inter-region of the season for them
