Three late changes for Northampton Saints ahead of Tigers kick-off

Of course, I lie. I want Smith, an unlikely 15, positioned in serendipity, (seren is Welsh for star) to confound us all by Phil Bennett dazzle and dance into our 6 Nations hearts and memory bank: the Manila Magician enchants the Welsh as though Merlin had come home from the great South East of Planet Rugby.

Yes agreed the 4 teams look competitive and the Force were very close to winning all 3 games too. Depth in some positions looks strong! 12 may be one position with little depth?

Following on from you kiwi 10s article there's big noise for Harry Godfrey who's just turned 22. Previously everything in Super Rugby/NPC/ U20s has been at 15 apart from one NPC match. I've only seen about half an hour of the Canes this year so I can't really comment.

I could never have imagined that some random Facebook groups would turn out to be my financial savior, but that is precisely how things happened following the accident when I erased the whole Bitcoin wallet by formatting the phone. It all began with what, at the time, seemed a simple phone reset. My phone had been on the fritz-apps moving slower than necessary, screens freezing on me-so I figured this factory reset was just what I needed. A responsible person I thought I had been, making sure my photo library, important files, and contacts were properly backed up online. What hadn't clicked, well, till now? It wasn't going to be in that backup-the crypto wallet, that is. The moment I booted up my "brand-new" phone and went to my wallet, my stomach just dropped. It was gone: All evidence of it vanished. My mind goes to: Had I written down my recovery phrase? Was there another backup somewhere? Spoiler alert: I had nothing. I freaked out. That wallet had about $80,000 worth of Bitcoin in it. Suddenly, I realized it was gone-unsalvageable. I spent hours Googling the solution, reading forum posts, and trying to reverse-engineer my mistake. Every attempt ended in frustration. It was then that I turned to Facebook. Desperate, I made a post in some niche crypto group I joined years ago but never really participated in. The answers were full of condolences, technical suggestions, and direct doom. Yet, there was this comment: This happened to me last year. Try HACK SAVVY TECH-they saved my funds." I looked up their page, read through dozens of positive reviews, and had nothing to lose. From the moment I reached out, they handled everything like pros: patiently walking me through this process, reassuring me that this wasn't an impossible case. That confidence gave me a degree of hope, but I braced for bad news. A few days later, I received that call: my Bitcoin was fully recovered. The relief was overwhelming. What I thought was a disaster turned into just a stressful hiccup—all thanks to HACK SAVVY TECH. Now, I have my funds back, a proper backup strategy, and a newfound appreciation for random Facebook groups. Lesson learned: never assume your data is safe.

Three flyhalves in the backline, a 5’ fullback who's never played flyhalf, a sniping 9… and they are all forced to play box kick tennis. What are we witnessing?

Borthwick might as well pick a back three of Freeman, Roebuck, Steward. I don't get the whole thing of pick a bunch of exciting players, force them to play like drones and try to gaslight the fans after the game into thinking they just witnessed an attacking masterclass. It's super weird. Marcus Smith, Slade, Randall are all completely wasted bordering on liabilities. If we're going to play this way, pick a team to do it properly.. or give them some f**king autonomy to play heads up rugby, counter attack, keep the ball and play multiphase.
