    Curry v Contepomi and the Most Chaotic Game Ever
    Nov 24 2025
    England have won eleven games in a row, but everyone is talking about what happened in the tunnel after the match. Argentina coach Felipe Contepomi accused England flanker Tom Curry of being a “bully” and pushing him. Meanwhile, South Africa definitely bullied Ireland in Dublin in one of the most dramatic games of rugby we’ve ever seen, Wales are getting better under new coach Steve Tandy and a front rower has been named World Player Of The Year for the first time in 24 years.
