Northern Sarries fans are like the Yeovil Liverpool supporters, too desperate to be associated with a winning side :p

It always seemed a bit odd to me. I did read his book a long time ago where he discussed HLHS.

Cheers, Paul

I recall that weight training for improving your casting was quite a hot topic here a few years ago. I enjoyed the Ritz book though, some of it was very forward thinking, including a note covering Bernsteins repetition without repetition and blocking.

I don’t support them, just like winding friends up who hate them😂; to be honest I support Exeter, as they are my most local club… but it doesn’t really worry too much either way, RU is more international focus for me.

Now RL, that’s different, season tickets at Wigan with my dad from 4.5 yrs old until I left home… I haven’t seen a live game for over 25 yrs, but I still hate St Helens, Widnes and Warrington…. On my death bed having not seen a live RL game for 50yrs I’ll still smile and get that warm feeling if I read St Helens have lost😂

Fly casting trivial pursuit. I think Mark needs this for his next pub night.

PS. I have a flying tank. Your argument is irrelevant.

PSS. How to generate a climbing loop through control of the casting stroke is left as a (considerable) exercise to the reader.

More trivia :glare: :D

It is interesting, at least IMO, how much of Joan's methodology is straight out of Ritz'.

And now back to our regularly scheduled science program... .

One of our issues is the only thing that changes is the terminology.
