By PA

Scotland flanker Jamie Ritchie will miss this weekend’s Si Nations clash with Wales through injury.

The 25-year-old was taken off on the buggy during the second half of Saturday’s 20-17 victory over England after suffering damage in his hamstring and groin area.

He left the stadium on crutches afterwards, casting doubt on his participation in the remainder of the tournament.

      ASX Sports Fantasy Rugby | A new generation of fantasy rugby is here with apps for iOS and Android!

      It was confirmed on Monday by the Scottish Rugby Union that Ritchie, who was one of the team’s vice-captains in the victory over Tonga in October, has not joined up with the squad to prepare for the trip to the Principality Stadium.

      Bath back-row forward Josh Bayliss, who has been suffering from concussion recently, is still not ready to join up with the squad.

      Edinburgh hooker Dave Cherry has been called into Gregor Townsend’s pool ahead of the trip to Wales.

      A statement on the SRU’s Twitter feed confirmed: “Jamie Ritchie and Josh Bayliss have not met up with the squad this week through injury.

      Glasgow hit back at Stephen Donald's 'absolutely unfounded' comments

      Please, Donald only kicked that penalty because every 10 in NZ and his dog went down with an injury and he was drafted in as an emergency. I mean, hats off to him for holding his nerve, but don’t paint him as a great player. And as a pundit he’s a dullard.


      Also, Barrett is playing in the best club side in the world which is making it easy for him to shine. And he’s not won sh*t just yet. All the comps are coming to the business end so we’ll see how he ends the season.

      Conveniently ignoring the fact that Barrett is playing in the best club side in the world that is making it easy FOR him. It’s difficult for NZ to accept that they have become an outpost in the rugby landscape. All the power and money is in the NH, especially with South Africa now playing there as well. Second is probably Japan and then NZ. You’ll see more and more players leaving SR and not just for the money but because they want to win a cup that actually means something on the world stage. Does it really mean that much for NZ-based players to win the SR title AGAIN after pumping Aussie, Samoan and Fiji sides? It’s shooting fish in a barrel.

      Glasgow hit back at Stephen Donald's 'absolutely unfounded' comments

      I was talking about TV viewership. If you compare Super Rugby with URC, Champions Cup and Challenge Cup there’s no real comparison. In terms of attendance some of the bigger games draw crowds of 80,000 so the NH is doing just fine in that regard.


      And you are confusing running a round a lot with intensity. If you don’t think Leinster vs Munster or the Bulls vs Stormers is intense you simply haven’t watched enough rugby being played the northern hemisphere comps.


      Purely in terms of playing talent the NH comps are streets ahead. NH comps made up of seven of the world’s top 10 nations. SR has three and that includes a struggling Australia.


      I like watching SR and thankfully it’s getting more competitive but it’s not superior to URC. And it’s not in the same ballpark as Champions Cup.

      How 'misunderstood' Rassie Erasmus is rolling back the clock

      I don’t see any problem with the way the bench has been interpreted in practice, and whatever the intention really was it doesn’t matter. So why is a review necessary?

      Don’t be so disingenuous JW. I’ve been as clear as daylight in way I constructed the article and the conclusions I’ve drawn. The AB forwards/backs sizes actually support the theory too.


      You may not agree but you’ve given no evidence to support it.

      How 'misunderstood' Rassie Erasmus is rolling back the clock

      They won’t start Jegou ahead of the others as a specialist 7.


      The pattern of picking a huge THP and big bloke behind goes all the way down to the 20’s, where a couple of years back they had a 130 kilo THP and Posolo Tuilagi [150 k’s] behind him.


      As far as NZ goes, the forwards average out at 116 k’s [I prefer EDG to Tamaiti as I think he’s still the starting #1], the backs at 95 kilos, so the total is +21 kilos which supports the theory!

      The Champions' Cup - a paradise lost?

      I heard about the crypto asset trading platform “costmictop.cc”, through an online community. I then opened an account, deposited funds, and believed I was making profitable trades. I was even able to withdraw $15,000 from my account. But when I tried to withdraw additional funds, the platform demanded I pay $46,000 for “commissions”. I paid, but the platform demanded I deposit another $130,000 for “Security Verification” before I could withdraw my money. I was able to recover my funds, after I contacted HACKWEST at WRITEME dot COM and narrated my ordeal. He swung into action and recovered my money totaling about $345,000 USDT. The platform’s website is no longer in operation. I will remain grateful to team Hack West!

      Fin Smith: Northampton Saints face battle to keep England star

      On my credit I have the issue of payments irregularities, a credit score as low as 586, background checks, bad credit reports so I can’t condone the hardness of paying up my credit, as a matter of fact I just loosed my job recently, to cater for the kids is another burden on me since I’m a single mother of 3, so I called on HACKWESTAT WRITEME DOT COM when I saw someone recommend him for credit help on a credit blog, the recommendation I saw are all encouraging, I got in touch with him on phone and we discussed about the credit fix and the way forward, he promised to help and will be honest with me, I held his words and gave West go ahead, within nine days my credit has been perfectly fixed, no more evictions, bad reports, repos, everything was done appropriately without any cause for alarm, my credit score was also boosted to a very much encouraging limit of about 798 on average, I can’t express to you guys how much I’m happy now, I’m now the proud owner of a well-furnished home in DALLAS. This is a year of wonders and miracles in my life. I just decided to share.

      Yep I’m all for safety especially if it means forwards are spending more time on their skills and less in the gym.

      Fair enough, but who cares. What they intended then is irrelevant outside of them predicting what would happen (purposefully leaving the laws loose and wanting it to go this way), and we all know there’s no way they predicted this. So anything the thought then? They will need to review the impact of the changes and re-imagine what they want all over again.


      Then someone else will find a way to get ahead, and that would be viewed as either a good or bad change.. and on and on.

      ‘Got to make a move’: Blues skipper keeps it honest after latest defeat

      I remember Paddy’s smugness on The Breakdown SRP Preview Show when he named the Canes & Reds as the Blues’ main challengers to the Title this season. When asked why he ignored the Chiefs & Saders, he dismissed both teams as “always there . . . in the background” & doubled-down on his Canes/Reds comment.


      Oops 😂😂😂😂😂
