A shameless plug to any rugby fans out there

[Large]

I will be commentating on national radio - BBC Five Live Sports Extra - for the first time on Sunday at 2pm; Saracens v London Wasps.

If you've nothing better to do, why not have a listen and let me know if I'm any good. :-)

You'll be hard pushed to make Saracens sound exciting.

Ask to do Harlequins v Gloucester instead.

Good luck though, hope its the first of many for you.

Good Luck!!
I'm a Quins fan as well, but since they play on Saturday, I will give it a go.. (and feedback straight afterwards)!

Rockymoutain - I was a junior in south Wales in the 1980s. I lived in Barnet for five years 1994-99, but played my rugby for Finchley who were a division higher than Barnet at the time. My watering hole of choice in Barnet was the Mitre.

Union isn't real rugby.

Let's not get into that debate. It's futile.

I played both union and league and love them both equally. I worked in Warrington for 5 months a couple of years ago. Went to see them play a couple of times. HJ stadium is very nice.

LOL - You won't get any squeaky Barry Davies moments, nor any shouty Jonathan Pearce ones. I'm more of a laid-back Des Lynam type.

Check out Eddie Waring when the ball goes over

How can one consider "real rugby" a game without scrums and proper tackling (both vital elements of their precursor: Rugby Football).. Faster pace, I'll give you that..
