Something to note this weekend. Moldovan tighthead prop Vadim Cobilas, who celebrated his 40th birthday over the summer, will play his final match for Bordeaux this Sunday against Toulon. A superb achievement to still be playing at this level at that age. nitter.gq/catourneovale/status/1…
Dimanche, l'inoxydable pilier de l'@UBBrugby Vadim Cobilas, joker Coupe du Monde devrait jouer son dernier match de #TOP14 face Γ  Toulon 🀩 Le moldave de 40 ans a jouΓ© 168 matchs avec le maillot girondin πŸ‘ Il faut qu'il parte sur un succΓ¨s et une belle ovation de Chaban 😍 #UBB

I see Bath have completely sold out for next season. Congratulations to them. Come on Northerners, let’s try and emulate them. Would be great to fill the stadium every game next season so you can help us on our way to Twickenham again!πŸ’ͺ NorthernrugbymattersπŸ‘
