Another busy week in the land of Twitter - but what have rugby's twitterati be talking about? We offer you our pick of their musings...

"how good is entourage? Would I rather be Vinnie Chase or Ari Gold? I can't decide..."Wales and Cardiff Blues centre Jamie Roberts has good taste when it comes to his TV fodder - and it's got to be Vinnie surely?

"Sore head but the win is worth the headache"
Ireland captain Brian O'Driscoll reflects on his side's Six Naitons victory over England at Twickenham after an accidental knee to the head from lock Paul O'Connell brought a premature end to his game.

"I'm lost for words after today. I thought we had it, finger tips is all that makes the difference."
England flanker James Haskell is gutted following his side's narrow loss to Ireland.

"I've done more interviews about this legends game than I used to leading up to Cup Final. We are all retired you know and not that good now"
Former England and Leicester stalwart Martin Corry is suddenly centre of attention again ahead of the England Legends v Irish Legends clash on the eve of the Six Nations clash between the same two countries.

"In the sheds n it's nearly show time! Boys are pumped... See you all after the game. Tweet ya later"
Reds playmaker Quade Cooper tweets from the changing room ahead of his side's clash with the Blues - a first for Tweet Treats.

"Anyone seen a big jaw anywhere ??? @Jamiehuwroberts http://twitpic.com/14suhq"
Wales and Cardiff Blues scrum-half Richie Rees continues his banter with team-mate Jamie Roberts.

"Right who's still up? Always hard gettin to sleep after a game:( 2.14am here & I'm wide awake, time 4 some #mw2"
Hurricanes and New Zealand prop Neemia Tialata suffers a little insomnia in the wake of his side's Super 14 victory over the Lions and opts for a little Modern Warfare therapy.

"Big game Friday! Need to find my gum shield!!"
Wales prop Adam Jones has a minor panic ahead of his side's Six Nations showdown with France.

"Got the kids at the park then Im going 2 go have mcds 4 the last time 4 3weeks cos I going 2 try stay off it in SA.my little goal"
Hurricanes star Cory Jane continues his battle with a fast food addiction.

"I found out today through the GPS system we wear to train that i ran just under 6ks in a session. no wonder my legs feel like lead."
England flanker James Haskell is more than a little surprised by his work-rate during training.

"@jameshaskell most important - how many times did you touch the ball in those 6kms?? Good luck for the weekend"
Waratahs coach, and Haskell's former boss at Stade Francais, Ewen McKenzie tries to wind up his former charge.

"Just watched news here in New Zealand and watched a Minister offer his resignation for putting 2 bottles of wine on his gov cred card,$70!!!"
Sharks skipper John Smit is stunned by what constitutes a political scandal in New Zealand while on his Super 14 travels.

We remind you that none of the above accounts have been verified but we're happy to take the chance for your entertainment - but would anyone masquerade as Richie Rees?
