I'm not a rugger fan but we're on same ground I think. Agree with generality of what you say. However:
Quinqennial Review is (or was) formal term used for five yearly examination of need for/functions of government bodies. I can't find full text but there's reference here:
publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm199900/cmselect/cmhaff/445/0041822.htm
I used it in that sense.
You, I and pretty much everyone else here is over fifty and understands the 'coal face' analogy.
Fact I'd have to explain it to a youngster is exactly the subject of this thread.
