The partnership between Cork and Morgan is the most important thing for the team this year. They're the engine room that will buffer the defence and give the forwards freedom to play.

It's funny because Anglo-French partnerships don't always work but when they do the results can be spectacular. Think of Concorde, the Channel Tunnel, Stereolab and, er, my dad who swears blind he had a go on Bridget Bardot back in the 60s before she went mental.

which brings back a number of personal memories for me - we lost my Granddad on the Normandy beaches....... he turned up later at the tourist information centre - he said been looking for an ice-cream..... but we were very anxious for a while. In the early 70s my Dad had a passionate correspondence with Catherine Deneuve (although she used the nom de plume "Madge" and seemed to write to him mostly from her (I presume) holiday home in Freemantle. Which brings me back to Morgan Schneider Trophy (a nice combination of engines if ever there was one) and Jacques Bouchon. What a combination! I think that with those two as a solid platform to bolster the defence and from which to launch wave after wave of assaults on the enemy positions, we won't need to send reinforcements to from Southampton to Harfleur nor sew up those breeches with our English thread or was it throw up them leeches in Tracey Ermin's bed? Anyway, I digress....I may be sticking my nose out (a bit like Charles de Gaulle, who did more for the spirit of Anglo-French concorde than the eponymous aircraft) but I would say our future looks bright. Sorry? 50 mls you said?"
