Some great rugby this weekend. Both Scottish sides getting a win was great for me to see!

Yes, there is an import feature that works really well now, very simple to add books and connected to a few catalogues

Rugby’s leaders should show courage of their convictions as Stephen Jones did (www.theguardian.com)
 

Great read here about Stephen Jones of The Times. Not a paper I read, but he has been huge in Rugby Union journalism for decades. And a little bit about the recent game troubles. Expect impact benches and kicking to dominate the upcoming six nations

Seconding uv and adding docker-compose for running dev DBs/services as my recommendation

Yes, history will not be kind to Starmer. But he won't be Liz fucking Truss

Jac Morgan: Wales captain to join Gloucester from Ospreys (www.bbc.com)
 

Good to see I say, Wales' cash can then go to paying the youngsters it badly needs

Match thread: European cups round 2 (lemmy.world)
 

More Champions and Challenge cup action this weekend, with all the rugby you can watch. And local rugby on too. So, what are we watching, what are we predicting, and what are we happy to hear about this weekend?

Pau vs Northampton was great to watch yesterday whilst peeling tatties

Match thread: European Cups Round 1 (lemmy.world)
 

The Champions and Challenge Cup both kick off tonight, with so much cross country rugby, it's going to be a hoot!

The Champions Cup has 4 pools this year, the Challenge 3. And it is a weird pool stage, then round of 16 knock out for Champions cup, with 5th placed teams going to the Challenge cup, 6th being eliminated. And the Challenge Cup a similar format, but with 1 pool being added essentially. Anyway!

Let the rugby begin, my picks of the weekend to watch are Sale vs Glasgow tonight, Bath v Munster tomorrow, and Gloucester vs Castres Sunday.

As always: predictions, reactions and shitposts appreciated, and enjoy your rugby!

Match thread: EOY 5, and Pro Clubs (lemmy.world)
 

Wales vs SA at 1510 UTC today, and loads of URC and some English Prem this weekend too. Hard to see Wales getting much out of this match, so what are we all looking forward to instead?

As always, predictions and reactions more than appreciated, have a great rugby weekend!
