Don't want to see 15 or 23 in maggot garb Sat Night.

There's no game without umpires and they do good work in a very difficult and highly scrutinised job. It's poor to refer to them as "maggots".

May the 4th be with us tomorrow

I like it.

C-3PO has now morphed into CP5.

They do average work and are well paid.Football is bread and circuses.Nobody puts a gun at their head.They should be better than they are.They often create the wrong result.They deserve and require constant scrutiny.

Is this our sixth night game out of eight this year?

Is the ball more slippery at night?

Daytime (standard) red Sherrins are stained.

The yellow night ball is not.  It's painted as you can't stain leather yellow. The paint is then covered with some sort of protective coating, so it's inherently more slippery.

Add some dew to that and you have a slippery little sucker on your hands.

Grippo probably becomes even more important on nights like this.  Some players like using it and others maybe not so much.

So constant scrutiny = "maggots". 

Olympic long jump is coming up - you just qualified.

Wasn't sure where to put this but another nice bit of content from the club.

[censored] yeah!

This is the kind of content I've been crying out for 👏

Well done Claire Pettyfor.

I think we are deluding ourselves if we think a forward line with Petty and Van Rooyen can get enough goals for us to win! Would have prefered BBB!

That footage at the end is genuinely hilarious.
