The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub

First topic message reminder :

Welcome to the virtual rugby pub - a place where you can come in for a sly beverage and discuss whatever's on your mind, or just eavesdrop on the regulars if you fancy a break from all the rugby chat.

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the Tommy Bowe photo on the bar. That's a banning offence

So pull up a chair....what'll it be?

Wasn't that a knock on earlier? Obviously not.....another try.

Good strength Mealamu.

I'd have given Kurtley Beale a right slippering then

Bhu88er Munsty ... you are 30 secs ahead of my stream. I'd better stop reading the Pub. Blacks are on a different plane here.

To say the ABs are getting quick ball is an understatment!

Guys: can I ask a favour of one of you please? Could you put the final score, etc on my recent staus on the book of face so I can find out the result quickly on my phone? Much love

Did the commentator just say Mccaw offside? Never!

Prop - just done it

10:4 rubber duck

Alright Gibbo, I'll wait a little longer to post.

You know how well New Zealand are playing when you consider that Australia have been very good so far.

Cheers guys!! Just off now, probably get hammered by the league leader but oh well!! Ciao for now.

Nah its grand Munsty pal. You go ahead. I'll just stop refereshing when they are near the try-line.

Argh! Surely Oz should've got something from that?!

Good luck lyd...

Yeah Cari, but credit to kiwi defense. Flawless.

Sivivatu not knock on after that kick from Cooper?

Just loving this game so far.

Beale always seems to be near the ball.

Cooper has so many tricks up his sleeve.

Carter though has just been fantastic all round. Same with this All Black side.

Prop - best of luck - enjoy your day

Oh dear, JOC having a bad kicking day....

Ah that's a pity. Australia do deserve to have something on the board by now.

10:4 rubber duck

That's an unusual scoreline.

Old money scoreline. But the rubber duck's try was a beaut.

'Convoy', lol glas.

Nice to have some quality comic relief... I'm hoping for a 23-point turn around in the 2nd half.

Jebus, Oz have to score now before half time.

Risca - didn't think you were burning enough candles to remember CB lingo

Really enjoyable game this so far. What a shame it's already half time.

Was that 40 minutes? Seemed like 10. Compelling stuff. How good is Dan Carter? He's everywhere... Genius.

I love those quick interviews before they go into the sheds...

Horwill summed it up pretty well I thought.

Aye breaker, I've been sitting here since 8.30 waiting for the Bar Steward JCB driver. The quality of the posts on here though make me feel as if I'm almost at Eden Park...cleaning the toilets.

Sorry, by the way cheap shot, you're all brilliant really

I remember it mostly from the Simpsons when Homer becomes a truck driver. But I do know of it.

Great half.

Twickenham's pitch looked lush then off the quick glimpse.

Anyone going on the chatbox?

Chatbox

Gibbo,the guy is awesome. Cooper could learn a lesson from Rog on cross field kicks Maybe they could both go to a tackling one while they're at it. Line,I was on it withyou and then you left

Where is the baastard...? Clip him behind the ears from me when you see him glas...! Tell him: "It's not acceptable!"

Right he's here. See you lot later, doubt I'll have much time to pop in before tea time.

It was like a single's tennis match Thomond. You were one set up too!

Enjoy the work/show glas.

So glad we're not playing New Zealand in the group stages.

Flipping heck mun

Need to go for someone ahead of O'Connor with the kicks.

Awh poor JOC. It's just not his day today.

Ha I could hear an Aussie doing an impression of Jiffy there "Numbers! Numbers! Numbers!"

Nice

Smart stuff there by Carter.

Clinical drop goal from DC

I said that before Marto...

Carter's having an excellent game. MOTM?

Wise move to take Crockett off

Commentator reckons some of the crowd are bored...how?!

Amazing. Digby

Munsty... Too right man. I think the only team that could handle them in their Pool - are in there with them. Still. Its rugby from the Gods by NZ. If Oz dont get on the board very soon...

What a try. Ioane with a magnificent step on Muliaina.

They needed that!

Digby Ioane = poorman's Aled Brew. Copycat finish.
