The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub

by **Ozzy3213** Wed 05 Oct 2011, 11:04 am

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 collage of the captains of the World Cup Quarter Finalists pictures on the bar. We've got Sam Warburton, Brian O'Driscoll, Lewis Moody, Thierry Dusautoir, John Smit, James Horwill, Felipe Contepomi and Richie McCaw.

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

Ale

Good morning all... guinness

Just rushed back from the jungle... seems like everyone in Sydney is going home at the same time... 3pm on a Saturday?
Crazy atmosphere out there... the barometric pressure seems very low steam

Nearly hit a swift or swallow?... about a dozen of these silly birds going beserk and skimming over the roads. Had to use my horn a few times.

Best of luck to both teams... whoever loses is still a winner in my book. thumbsup

Bore da Good morning.

by Cari Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:41 am

Bore da pawb. coffee

I feel rotten...two hours sleep I had in the end. Anyway, hopefully this game will keep me alive.

Enjoy it everyone.

by littleswannygirl Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:43 am

I think I've just seen our Penfro on the telly!!!!

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:44 am

ah no way Swanny that's brilliant!

by **Pal Joey** Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:45 am

Cari, saw your posts a few hours back. Those selfish baastards making all that blydi noise. Hopefully you'll sleep well later. I was up late too... about 3-4 hours sleep, then up early. Tired and hypo at the same time if it's possible?

by Glas a du Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:46 am

Bore da bawb. I've slept like a four year old...on Christmas eve!

3334 Glas... Crying or Very sad

by littleswannygirl Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:46 am

I'm sure it was him Dreamer. Some fleeting crowd scenes before the inevitable ad break Rolling Eyes

I'll look back later and check Very Happy

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:48 am

ha brilliant, I really hope it's him! He must just be having the most amazing time out there.

by Cari Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:48 am

I'm watching the superior S4C coverage so I missed that Swanny - was he holding up a Cardiff Saracens flag? Smile

Linebreaker - yes the world is full of selfish gits like that...and they all live behind my house I think Rolling Eyes

Anyway I can't decide if I'm hardcore or insane....

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:51 am

hardcore Cari, always hardcore!

Ah the adrenaline will take over a bit and you'll be fine, there's allways time for sleeping later Smile

by Cari Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:54 am

Blinking heck, I didn't realise the stadium was so near to the coast. If ROG or Priestland kick the ball hard enough it'll plop into the sea! Smile

Here they come...now Tommy, remember you're an Opsrey! No fancy stuff...

by littleswannygirl Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:56 am

I'm gonna log off for a while ladies and gents, give the match my full attention.

Good luck to all! Hug

by Breadvan Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:56 am

Morning all. cuppa

Tense, nervous? lol. Weather looks tomkite in Wellington I see...

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:57 am

Man getting up for this was hard. I really need a lie in too. At least I don't smell of grass and mud etc now.

by Glas a du Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:58 am

Wyn Gruffydd's voice is perfection for commentary. Such a natural character, his Welsh is top notch and understandable for second language/learners.

by Cari Sat 08 Oct 2011, 5:58 am

oh jebus Tommy, did you have to look so clean shaven and sexy? That's not helping me!!!

Morning Risca! Long time no see Smile

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:00 am

Ireland's anthem sounded toilet then in my opinion (from the choir anyhow). Ours sounds a little bit better. Though it's quite high pitched too.

Been offline all week Cari on exercise. Sorry about your neighbours.

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:00 am

oh man what a rendition of that anthem, tears in my eyes. Boths sides look like they mean business.

Ymlaen bechgyn, ymlaen.

by Glas a du Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:01 am

Never knew there were so many I's in Hen Wlad fy Nhadau...

Whistle

by Cari Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:01 am

Ah it's forgotten Risca...enjoy the match. Dere 'mlaen Cymru!!!

by WillyGilly Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:01 am

And we're off...

Best of luck everyone.

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:01 am

Rev - aye the choirs are a bit to shrill for a fair few of the anthem's, that's the best I've heard the Welsh one all tournament though.

by Rava Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:02 am

Good Morning. Good Luck

by Cari Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:03 am

Switched back to S4C...no Quinny on ITV. Bad show ITV. raspberry

Good start Wales!!!

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:04 am

OMFG!!!!

OMFG!!!!!

by WillyGilly Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:04 am

That's not in the script.

by Cari Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:04 am

Feck me what a start! And that looks in!!!!

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:04 am

What a start

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:04 am

shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaane!!!

by Glas a du Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:04 am

by Guest Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:05 am

omg, am I actually awake here? what a start, just....what a start!

Is DOC okay? Roberts walloped in to him.

We need this kick.

Oh lovely RHys,lovely, 7-0.

by **Ozzy3213** Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:07 am

What a start. This looks like it's going to be some game

by Cari Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:07 am

I'm glad Rhys nailed that. Awkward angle.

by Glas a du Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:18 am

One eye, he's only got one eye!

by WillyGilly Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:28 am

Ireland have completely dominated this game. Should be level at least. Penalty count well in our favour as well. Line out and scrum functioning well. All good in the hood.

by Glas a du Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:30 am

Every time Ref-ar-ee!

by Glas a du Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:45 am

Can somebody tell me why Ireland spurned the chance of 6 points at the start of the half?

by **Ozzy3213** Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:46 am

They fancied the lineout to give them a dominant platform over your Glas. Was a poor decision from BOD.

by Glas a du Sat 08 Oct 2011, 6:49 am

Hubris? You score a try, we'll get one straight back.
