What a week for The Times rugby department, where the ghost of Stephen Jones still roams.
On The Ruck we chatted about England & the environment Steve Borthwick has created, after @owenslot’s piece @TimesSport.
Senior players today were fired up & defended him.
How will they show their love on Sun?

A telling stat of the number of tackles needed to be completed (ie not missed) by the Welsh forwards- because they can’t hang on to the ball
Mann’s tackles came in 69 minutes

Faletau has played only 56 minutes in ONE game this season.
109 caps. Left out of the Wales squad.
Huw Jones on Taulupe Faletau, and why he thinks it happened.
Right call? 👇

From "bollocks" to:
"We have been approached by Wales. Getting into cross-border competition is not quite as simple as it might sound. There's all sorts of ramifications and potential complexities to that.
"So we are doing all of the work necessary to fully evaluate that."

I’m so sorry to be killing Bambi for those of you that want an Anglo-Welsh league.
But I’ve spoken to a lot of knowledgeable people this week who’ve explained why it’s a pipe dream.
When does the moral Q, of saving Wales, come though?

Interesting to learn Northampton Saints owe more to West Northamptonshire Council than the Scarlets owe to Carmarthenshire County Council
(nearly £4m)
And the interest rate is 3.97%, similar to that of 4% charged to the Scarlets
Northampton Saints Plc has today announced its financial results for the year ended 30 June 2026.
The Club delivered an underlying profit of £0.2m and generated cash from the P&L for the second year running, marking the most commercially successful season for a decade.
