Hope Scotland do a wee bit better this week! Whats your thoughts on Gregor Townsend?? I was watching the snowboarding. Mental!!

[-] Olap@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

All winter Olympics are mental, well better than summer. My daughter did a drawing of the skeleton whilst we watched tonight, was very sweet. I've watched loads of curling already, but only a little snowboarding. My World of Tanks season pass is behind schedule!

And Toonie oot, simples. A win tomorrow won't save him either, his time is done imo

Aww!! Is your daughter quite artistic? Skeleton would be difficult to draw! Hows the wee ones biking coming on??

Poor Gregor! Is there someone to replace him??

[-] Olap@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

She does like to draw indeed. Skeleton not too bad really with a helmet, arms stiff to their side, and the sled is just a tray really. The dogman books also have loads of character step examples to practice on, so she's not bad at them either

And yes, there is an obvious replacement in Glasgow right now, Franco Smith. But to yank him out means the URC and Champions Cup would be jeopardised for The Warriors. And they are sitting top of both! The team today are comprised almost entirely of Glasgow players, so he's doing something right along the M8

A more shrewd signing may be the last coach that went too early. Vern Cotter may fancy another crack, he's currently doing club rugby for The Blues in NZ, and won the league in 2024, so he's still got it too

Ooh West coast represent!!! 🤣🤣

Gregor might have held on a bit longer after that today??

My nephew loves the dogman books. Haven't read them myself but I've bought them for him!!
