lol! not a fan of club rugby myself but i do love an england rugby union game! as above cant wait for the world cup!

Definitely this. Only recently been reminded that it starts next month. Tho' do have a soft spot for Hove as did a bit of training with them more years ago than I care to remember.

GLLLLLLLAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTTTTTTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

will be interesting to see how we get on minus some big name players such as nicky robinson who have moved to pastures new. that should hopefully give freddie burns a run at fly half. id more than settle for the same as last season in top four and a minor trophy, and the fact that we will only lose tindall and possibly charlie sharples to england duty should be a big help

I am Gloucester Box holder.

Its a bit like following the Albion very high highs and several low lows.

Like to beat Barf and finish in top 4.

A cup now and again with a big day out is great but having been to 3 Finals at Twicks that we got tonked in i'm a bit of a pessimist sometimes.

Wasps are my team and whilst we have made some good signings, I think a transitional year is in prospect.

Every year is a transitional one for the waspies....

So anyone heading to the Twickenham Double-Header tomorrow?

My mate's particularly excited as Saracens are nominally at home, so the Saracens cheerleaders will be there

Not heading to the double header, but hoping Quins have a great start to their season!

Thinking Saracens will win it this year, Leicester will miss their big names because of the World Cup.

C'mmmoooonnn Baaattth!

Bath have made some interesting signings, but will be hampered by some of these players not joining until after the RWC, as well as the loss of 4 Bath players to the RWC and some coming back from long term injuries.

Could be a chance this year for a team with no players at the RWC to do well early season and for the rest then to have to play catch up.

How blessed to have a passion for many sports!

Friday night sees the final of the Rugby 7s at the Stoop with Harlequins and Saracens expected to run each other close.

I am Harlequins fan, and often see them play. I know there are some rugby fans on NSC. Does anyone have any predictions for the new season?

(Boring tedious, predicatble 'Rugby is rubbish' responders may wish to take a break from this post...)

Nottingham to win the Championship.
