The negative comments regarding County Rugby are somewhat supported by the fact that neither Yorkshire or Northumberland are tweeting the Men's score.

Yorkshire Women beat Northumberland 22-7.

Yorkshire beat Northumberland 52-40.  They made hard work of the win but Northumberland pushed them more than I expected.

Hushed voice, whispering here.

Well done RFU fixture persons.
Yesterday East Midlands Men and Women played at Northampton Old Scouts against their Warwickshire counterparts.
A situation that cannot happen for every county, but as it did here, having both games same place, same day, same time is a sign of joined up thinking…or an accidental fluke.
I would like to think the former.
Looking forward to new beginnings.

I would also like to think, reducing the league sizes in the mens game, that besides the optional club cup games end of season that the County championship could start mid April and the first weekend of May would be the end of group stages,

I might be trying too apply too much sense to RFU fixture planning, and apologise if that is naive.
Looking forward to new beginnings.

Same for Yorkshire yesterday at Northumberland and next week against Lancashire.

Cheshire streaming their game on YouTube and currently 43 points up on Leicestershire early in the second half.

I have no idea what the format of the tournament is but Cheshire don't seem to be playing Lancashire or Yorkshire this year?

Leicestershire 12 - 101 Cheshire. Not sure who can benefit from a game like that.

I would imagine you are going to get Semi Pros at levels 3 and 4 against players purely amateur levels below that.

21 players in the Cheshire 22 from the 1st and 2nd placed clubs in Nat 1, playing mainly lads from Level 4,5 and 6. Added to the fact that Cheshire play Northumberland at Home next week I would expect Cheshire have already booked their Hotel at Twickenham. RFU Comps and the Organising Committee got this one badly wrong schedule-wise
