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 team photos of the World Cup finalists. Or the action shots (put up especially for Cari) of McCaw, Kahui and Corey Jane.

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

Ale

I remember borrowing a book about the Beatles from the library when I was about 16 and there was of a photo of George Harrison from the mid-'80s with a bubble perm. To say it was unfortunate is an understatement!

by Luckless Pedestrian Sat 22 Oct 2011, 11:31 pm

Nos da, Gibbo - and you Hughie, when you get there.

You used to have a perm, Kenny?

Night Gibbo guinness

by Guest Sun 23 Oct 2011, 12:12 am

Hoog, hope you're ok pal!

Hound, I am sorry pal and I hope your mate is okay. I wish I was there at Gomez Park today to share a beer with you my friend.

Good day for me, but sadly it was my last game before I go away. Best to go out on a win too Wink

by WillyGilly Sun 23 Oct 2011, 1:11 am

I am currently flying high as a kite (on good times not on sex, drugs or rock and roll. N.B alcohol may be a factor).

Problem is know I can't sleep and I terrified that when I do move off to the land of nod it will be 11 or later before I awaken. As it is the last match of the WC I am genuinely considering powering through the night as done on previous occasions in the last 6 weeks.

Pfft no ones in here anyway! I'm just rambling on to myself! Bunch of lightweights you are! It's Saturday night. The night when things happen!

by WillyGilly Sun 23 Oct 2011, 1:30 am

P.s I am also in the Market for Halloween costume ideas. Usually I'm sorted by mid October but this year I've fallen behind. Last year going out as a Chilean miner went down an absolute storm.

All thoughts welcome...

by **Notch** Sun 23 Oct 2011, 1:50 am

Maori warrior Willy. Only way!

Tonight, got some face painting done at a friends gig. Lad at the bar told me he hoped my team won tomorrow. I hope so too!

Do you mind? you're scaring the children!

by Cari Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:22 am

Morning All coffee

Had a really good kip last night - in bed at ten and didn't wake up until seven this morning. Lush! All ready for the final now. Gooo the All Blacks!!! Kiwi

Notch - great suggestion on the Maori warrior costume. It may be a bit chilly for it over there, but a few drinks later and Willy could cope with that Smile

by MBTGOG Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:24 am

Come on France!

by Cari Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:25 am

Bonjour Munsty! Very Happy

by Mrs Penfro Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:30 am

Go All Blacks! I really hope they can do it. It would finish off a great World Cup all round. Kiwi

by Gibson Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:31 am

Mornin

by **Ozzy3213** Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:31 am

Morning all

Can't believe the World Cup is almost over. Let's hope this final 80 minutes are the best and the best team wins.

by Mrs Penfro Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:33 am

Oh bless Sam Warburton's on S4C in the build up to the final at Eden Park. Wales have already left for home so he'll have to fly back on his own now.

by Cari Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:35 am

If the All Blacks win this, New Zealand will be on public holiday for about the next week! Smile

by Gibson Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:36 am

Looks like the Kiwi fans are celebrating already. Hmmmm. Just want France to compete to the end and bring some flair to this one. As well as great defence.

by MBTGOG Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:36 am

I'm gunning for France because if they win this, we will have seen one of the great rugby world cup matches, of that I have no doubt.

by Mrs Penfro Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:37 am

I'm getting quite excited now. I really hope it's a good game. I don't know whether this World Cup feels different because I was out there but it deserves a great final to cap it all off.

by Cari Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:38 am

That's true Munsty. I hope that it isn't a one-sided dull game, but I can't see that happening to be honest.

by maestegmafia Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:40 am

Right guess I had better sit down and watch this RWC final... Doesnt seem like a big even. All feels a bit flat.

I hope the game is a good one...!

Enjoy everyone

by Gibson Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:42 am

Penfro is there, yeah MrsPenfro? coffee

by MBTGOG Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:51 am

So New Zealand are out to end their "24 year drought". Has anyone wondered when this has been written and spoken about for however long, who do all these people think were champions between 1987 and 1991?

by **Ozzy3213** Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:53 am

Match thread...

by Glas a du Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:53 am

Allez les Bleus!

Why? Simple - if I'm a neutral I always support the underdog. What? England? If they're playing I'm certainly not neutral.

by Mrs Penfro Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:54 am

Auckland looks amazing at night doesn't it. Yes Gibbo, Penfro is there.

by Hound_of_Harrow Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:55 am

Morning. Leaving aside 1999, when France didn't turn up, most of the finals haven't featured much in the way of flair rugby. This will be attritional I reckon. Unless France just cave in....again.

by MBTGOG Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:58 am

Imagine if Doussain comes on making his debut in the World Cup final?

by Mrs Penfro Sun 23 Oct 2011, 8:59 am

Wow, that was amazing.

by Gibson Sun 23 Oct 2011, 9:01 am

Magic!

by Glas a du Sun 23 Oct 2011, 9:01 am

And it starts! Yehah!

by MBTGOG Sun 23 Oct 2011, 9:02 am

What a haka?! On that note, I'm out. Enjoy everyone!

by Glas a du Sun 23 Oct 2011, 9:02 am

Get the throat slit out of the Haka - that's an assault.

by Cari Sun 23 Oct 2011, 9:02 am

Great response to the Haka from the French.

by Mrs Penfro Sun 23 Oct 2011, 9:04 am

I don't like that Haka, the other one's better

by Gibson Sun 23 Oct 2011, 9:07 am

McCaw gets the vote. I hope Joubert is fair here.

by Mrs Penfro Sun 23 Oct 2011, 9:09 am

I wonder whether they'll give the kicking duties to Cruden if Weepu misses a few?

by Gibson Sun 23 Oct 2011, 9:10 am

France have started really well here.
