Diskin has had a great season. He'splayed with a torn pec since Heath was injured and broke his hand last Saturday. He's not likely to be as fit as he was a few years ago but he is very, very good at what he does. His attitude is first class and he is definitely THE Captain. He never shirks anything and, unlike some, always gives his all for the team, injured or not.

O Brien is small, but he hits hard. The few times I've seen him play this season, he's put a couple of crunching tackles in. I was quite pleased with what I saw from both Adam and Nathan last week. Hopefully in a few years they will both be our regular hookers.

If we applied this rule to the fans, we would solve all our financial problems at a stroke

Be careful what you wish for I am sure Mr O'Leary would think that was a perfectly sensible suggestion!

Actually, his passengers are already very slim, it's all their holiday clothing wrapped around their bodies which makes them appear overweight. To get round this I understand Mr O'Leary is considering a charge of £10 per pocket on jackets and trousers and a special one-off charge of £40 quid for cargo pants...

More worryimg is that in the event of cabin depressurisation its £1m for oxygen - or you take a very deep breath. Which when you think about it is a good reason to keep fit and maintain good lung function which almost comes back to the topic of the thread! Stay fit or die
