This weekend sees the battle for the @premrugby #playoffs conclude - but can you complete this #RugbySquared from teams currently in the top 6? A player must have played for both clubs - no repeat players - no googling. Can you complete all the squares?
I was reminded of this game tonight. And in light of Sunday’s final - here’s a second tier special. Find a player who fits in each box. They must have played for both clubs that cross section. Can you complete all squares? Reposts welcome
Less than 24 hours to go. #champrugby #bedfordblues #worcesterwarriors
Harry Wells to Bedford Blues as player coach is a welcome surprise. I thought Oundle had snagged him. Huge presence and knowledge to bring to an already good Blues side

A lovely story this from Will Maisey and Bedford Blues. www.rugbypass.com/news/rugby-w...
Will Maisey: 'I nearly quit the game. It was not the way I wanted to play rugby'
Championship Rugby: Will Maisey’s Whatsapp message flashes up on my phone. When we’d spoken, earlier that day, we’d talked about a lot.

Who's leading the way in the last couple of years when looking at chance creation and carrying ability? Oval Insights with the data! Jarrod Evans hollering from the rooftops that he's deserving of Welsh honours here....
At the Twickenham Stoop yesterday with Ben Curry and Lewis Ludlam, working the room, laughing and smiling with the fans, enjoying ourselves!

@samrobertscomms.bsky.social and I host a podcast called The Whiteboard Rugby Podcast which you can find on all good podcast supplying websites. Out latest episode is with Matt Banahan and we talk about his coaching journey in Scotland, plus the 745 Game this weekend in honour of Rob Burrow 1)
Sarah is so, so good. I am thrilled she’s coming to GR. She’s involved in the current Red Roses set up and has more games than anyone else (male or female) for England. On top of that, her journey (from the north east) to the top of the game is so interesting. Do get along. Ticket prices changed.
Great afternoon at the Twickenham Stoop yesterday working on commentary with Luke Northmore. Is he as lovely as you’d think he’d be? Yes. He is.
Such an interesting chat, well worth a listen
Sam Roberts@samrobertscomms.bsky.social · 2y agoNew WHITEBOARD RUGBY PODCAST ‘Blindside’ episode out tomorrow at @ 8am with Bristol Bears COO Tom Tainton. He discusses ‘rugby in a digital age’ and shares extraordinary insight around how they create their content. It is BRILLIANT.

Disaster in northern-central Spain, where a fire in a bar has left many injured after some of the local regulars, in the panic, all rushed for the door at once and got stuck, preventing others from escaping. Which just goes to show… … … You shouldn’t put all your Basques in one exit.
Really enjoyed listening to both Sams in other podcasts so not a surprise that the first two episodes have been well worth listening to.
Sam Roberts@samrobertscomms.bsky.social · 2y agoSam Larner and I promise to bring you insight and knowledge from the world of rugby; we will explain things in a sensible way, and we won’t say something for attention. The guests we have on know more about a particular part of rugby than you or I do. ~30 min eps open.spotify.com/show/6NuBWrQ...
