Tourney: Euro Bench - Bristol - July 20/21

I'll arrive in Bristol around 16.00 on Friday.

l ll be in Bristol by 3pm on Friday

Ill reff for a lift

Really, would be awesome? Is Friday 1pm any good for you?

Isn't Ryan playing?

yep sounds good

We have evidence from Krakow that Ryan can ref and play to a high standard in the same day, that day being after a massive Jono-crippling pissup. He'll be fine.

Just don't drink spirits with Spring Break.

I think they already have 5 refs so he doesn't need to. He can spend more time drinking!

Nah, Chan's an old man now, this team will be at least 12.5% asleep by 10pm.

Oh wait, you are playing, I forgot that. We are trying to do non playing refs if possible. But maybe for the final games.

He can spend more time drinking!
Good plan.

Those luscious locks need their beauty sleep!

But maybe for the final games.
Translation: My money's not on Chan's team.

I gotta say... it is pretty shitty that captains are going out of their way to pick up ringers that aren't on the list... It kind of makes you wonder what the point was in putting a list together and having a registration deadline. Possibly a new rule for next year? #2cents

Same goes for all the last minute drop outs, I'm not aiming at injured people like Thomas in my team or yann (they broke their hand) but a lot of players cancelled really late and it doesn't give a lot of options to captains as well

This rule was agreed with the captains at the start of this process. Pick anyone from the list, or pick someone not on the list, with agreement of the other captains.

But whatever happens next year, if it happens, is up to whoever organises it. It won't be me.

John, is there an updated team list anywhere?

Cheers John, I'll pass by at some point.

MAT, not since the draft, i'll try and get something up.
