That big news I teased yesterday?
I've written a book!
Attacking the Space: Inside Rugby's Tactical and Data Revolution is the book I wanted to read as a rugby obsessive kid. It will be released on the 29th January 2026, the pre-order link is:

Breaking: Canada’s Secretary of State has just announced (midway through the match) almost $5 million in funding for Rugby Canada in 2026-27, including an additional investment of $2.8 million for this year
The last time a Prem side won a match after scoring 9pts or fewer in the first half was 24th January when Bristol Bears beat Exeter Chiefs 8-3 and scored 5pts in the first half.
Per Oval Insights!
George Barton has been outrageously good for Gloucester tonight in a remarkable first 30mins.
Incredible game of rugby

It's been announced that Ben Whitehouse has moved to the WRU as a specialist coach and ended his refereeing career.
I talk about that modern trend in a section called Gamekeeper Turned Coacher in Attacking the Space, it might be my favourite pun.

This set of extraordinary interviews from @edslater and me, are still available to download and listen to. Just as important today as when we recorded them.
We ask the top names in the sport what rugby gave them - unbelievable insight

Congratulations to @HitchikersPie and @JacCooper1 who guessed 110 and 112 - the correct answer was 111.
We'll get signed copies out to you both.
If you didn't win, we'll do another one for the Autumn Internationals so keep an eye out for that!

Dean Adamson has scored in 10 of his last 11 #ChampRugby games 😳
Is he the greatest try scorer in the league’s history?
What a sensational match in the @Champrugby between @CoventryRugby and @Blackheath_1858
The Londoners clawed their way back into it from being way down at half time but Cov just hold out.
If you're not watching Champ rugby on @clubberrugby you are missing out!
Reminder to get your guesses in before 15.05 tomorrow!
How many 22-Entries will we see across the whole Prem weekend?

This week in the i I look at what has happened at Quins and how they've failed to keep up with a changing game which no longer rewards the style they employed when they were successful.
And how they haven't adapted to that....

Very good this, from @CornishPirates1 and @clancy1213 !!
What an incredible game to cover for @clubberrugby! 🎙️🏉
Five years to the day since @CornishPirates1 last picked up a victory over @ealingtfrugby — and what a way to end the wait!
Gripping. Tense. Dramatic. A fitting finish to a brilliant contest.
