I think the wink at the end of that quote indicates that you were teasing a little with perhaps a little insider knowledge. Like Preece against Hartpury, I had a feeling Maisey would get recalled for this after 3 weeks out in the cold. They were both key players last season and although maybe...

Yep, and the fact that LI from the start of the 2nd half chose to kick for 3 pts from pens within distance instead into the corner for line out and drive shows that they knew they were in game. I always like going to Richmond, there's a nice little pub called the Triple Crown opposite the...

Another fantastic game to watch right down to the wire again. I think it's a bit harsh on Beech but apart from that agree with everything you said. We competed with a very strong Irish side in every department and it's just really down to these unforced errors and penalty count again. I think...

Spot on summary and observations. Like the abuse of officials at the Bedford game, booing our own players is a disgrace and an embarrassment to the club. I'd rather these people stay away. Ok some of Sharp's kicking has not been up to the level expected but some of his handling, passing and...

White was subbed because of injury. He tried to charge down a Hartpury kick and the kicker followed through full force into his stomach/rib cage area. He got up after a few minutes of treatment but it was around the time that Kessell would probably have been introduced to the game anyway. He had...

Not impressed with Sharp's kicking so far. Missed a very kickable pen early on when 0-0 and set the tone for the rest of the game. Some very poor decision making and poorly executed kicks not least of all when Cov had the momentum at 20-17 and from a good position inside the Hartpury half kicked...

Not only Makaafi but Maisey also not making the squad. He hasn't really done anything to be dropped but that's the nature of having a big squad. You need to keep everyone involved at some point to keep them interested and as 'match ready' as possible in the event they need to be recalled through...

I didn't think there were that many missed tackles and overall the defence was immense. There were some huge hits out there and I thought Sam and Heath were superb in the middle. I thought Knoxy might have done better on their opening try but I was on the same side of the pitch near the railway...

What a game that was, a phenomenal team performance from Cov. They could so easily have crumbled after that early onslaught and I feared the worst after Jersey went 12-0 up bossing the scrums and mauls and looking invincible in the lineout. Great credit must be given to Cov for the resilience...

That is in no way being biased. An annual fixture like this would benefit Cov or don't you agree with that? It has created interest and brought in a very healthy attendance for a friendly pre-season fixture, all good for the club. It was a report by John Butler for goodness sake. I don't think I...

And what exactly did I miss and said by who?

Nothing of the sort. I listened to the after match report by John Butler. It was his usual honest appraisal as anyone who know's John Butler would expect. Although a good result for Cov, he wasn't overplaying the significance of the result by stating that it was against the Wasps academy which...

Won at a canter and never got out of 3rd gear all game. Too strong all round, just shows the difference between Championship and National One in terms of physicality. David Halaifonua is a beast with pace to go with it. Some of his runs in the first half were breathtaking. With the pitch as hard...

Just got in 3 and sheets to the wind. A great day that makes you proud of Cov and well done to CCFC for getting within a whisker of securing a playoff place. Fantastic that we broke National League One attendance record too. I knew it was going to be 3k+ just by looking at the main stand. It...

According Cov Rugby twitter, 3 more signings to be announced this week, one with international experience. Exciting times ahead.

I've just had confirmation from Caldy RFC that Saturday's postponed game will now take place on 17th March. I was extremely brassed off at the postponement as I'd bought advance rail tickets to West Kirby for this game. I like to share however the incredibly kind offer from Caldy RFC to send to...

Poor passing and handling errors have been creeping in to Cov’s games in recent weeks and needs to be eradicated. Loughborough’s spritely backs were always a threat running with the ball and their forwards negated our attempted close-in rolling mauls that have been so effective this season. I...

You really have to question the wisdom of playing a Rugby League match on a Friday evening less than 24 hours before the 15 a side game. Towards the end of both halves it was difficult to see who was who. It was 15 browns against 15 browns. Still, nice to see Cov back on track after last week's...

Cov were awesome today and utterly ruthless. That's probably the best performance I've seen this season, Ampthill were just blown away. It's rare for Ampthill to concede more than 20 points in a game and the most they've conceded this season prior to today's game was 24 points. For Cov to score...

Game on. Confirmed on official site.
