We may have to have a game among ourselves for those who have not had a lot of rugby.

What we're trying to do is make sure we unearth the players, if we haven't already done so, who are going to be there for 2007.

We are now concentrating fully on Ireland and this will be a very important match. But on the other hand we should not try to score at any price because we are not obliged to win.

affected along area best cancel decision felt games great membership played push require school teams
We're not going to require teams to play if they're in an area affected by the storm. That's a decision they should make, along with their school boards. If the membership felt it was best that no games be played this week, we wouldn't play football. There hasn't been a great push to cancel games.

We are going through maybe not in the Arsenal way - but we are through.

Whether they do or not will be another story, we'll have to wait and see.

We were all very relaxed -- that's how I knew it would be a fast race.

We would like him to start and will hold the door open as long as possible. If his ankle is no good, then we start Conrad Smith.
