The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub

by Guest Tue 25 Oct 2011 - 15:57

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 life size photo of Thierry Dusautoir.

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

Ale

I found a link if anyone needs it.

by Gibson Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 18:47

Thanks T.

Not a Shels man sooo...
Mon Cork City!

Believe.

by greybeard Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 18:48

Very lucky knock on from a Connacht perspective. Blues had a great run from the scrum and looked very dangerous, stupid KO just a metre or so from the line.

My aunt and uncle live just opposite Tolka Park T, house with the yellow(i think) door beside the lane. Has a sign for Barneys Autos in the garden

Stupidest try. Ever.

by Hound_of_Harrow Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:07

Good win for Scarlets. And Treviso!! 50 points!! Jebus, that's some going. I thought the Dragons would kick on after last season. Are they resting their RWC players?

by greybeard Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:07

S4C's English language commentator has just said he has been pronouncing Flavin incorrectly and was corrected over twitter.

Can someone with a twitter account now ask him to start pronouncing Connacht properly!

by Gibson Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:08

Much obliged Grey. Thank you.

MON Connacht! Stand Up and Fight!

by Gibson Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:13

Jeezuz. Ah You!

by greybeard Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:15

yeah, awful wasn't it? All the momentum is with Blues now, even though Connacht are camped in the opposition half.

by Guest Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:21

Evening all, I'm a very happy, all beit ill Scarlet today

to the Ulster regs.

by greybeard Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:22

Blues down to 14. Connacht convert the pen, 20 - 20.

Interesting...

by greybeard Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:27

Dan Parks misses kick No 3, but Connacht give the penalty straight back closer in. 20 - 23

by Gibson Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:30

This commentator is not to fit to cover Krufts.

Mon Connacht! Must score here. Patient build-up.

Well done today Dreamer. Great win in the circumstances.. clap

by Gibson Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:31

WTF ref?

by **Ozzy3213** Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:31

Evening all, congrats to those whose teams have won today.

Poor performance from Irish, I could go into where we went wrong, but it would just depress me and we don't have all night. We must play better, and I know we can, so it's not all doom and gloom.

The worst note of the day was the small minority of Bath fans sat in the same row as me. I have never come across fans like them at a rugby match before, and hopefully never will again.

At least Arsenall have given me something to smile about today though. Can't believe RVP got a hat trick, I was only looking at the odds for that earlier and decided it was so unlikely that I wouldn't even stick a quid on it!!! Doh

by greybeard Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:31

Who's George New-wappoo?

by Guest Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:36

Diolch Gibbo. I went into the match thinking we'd be lucky to get a LBP, so really really pleased and surprised with the win. Great atmosphere at PyS as well despite the weather, to have a few of our stars back for us.

by greybeard Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:36

Parks DG, 20 - 26, Connacht in danger of not even getting an LBP

My aunt had her 50th there a couple of years back. You weren't a ballroom dancer by any chance were you Gibbo...........

by Guest Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:39

ah no that would be harsh on Connacht, sounded like they were playing great earlier. Would be a brilliant win for the Blues mind.

by **Ozzy3213** Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:47

Forfeicssake. Dont mention that score to Ulstuur fans Ozzy. They are depressed enough as it is.

by **Ozzy3213** Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 19:57

I'll keep schtum Gibbo, no worries.

Ah, that ASM rubbish they are, couldn't beat an egg, will be lucky to beat the Italians.

Whistle

by Gibson Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 20:02

Treviso will cause a lot of problems for those in their pool.

Biarritz, O's and Sarries. Its not a nice place to go now.

Oooh I cant wait for the real thing to kick off. There will be some shocks for sure.

by Gibson Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 20:04

Hard luck Connacht. Just hadn't got the cool to take their chances. 20-26. LBP.

by **Ozzy3213** Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 20:04

We're gonna have to up our game from today for the Heino, otherwise we will stand no chance of getting out of the pool. Huge match for us at Welford Road next week now!!! Erm

De missus is a brilliant dancer. Shes trying to get me to go to lessons. Wants me to be a Robbie SAVAGE. Laugh

Its Satuirday night - I have had too much to drink but I would like to wish you all a really good weekend.

Well done oon the win hughie - glad it went to a regular

by Gibson Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 20:14

Round up the usual PRO12 Suspects in the Top 4...
http://www.rabodirectpro12.com/matchcentre/table.php

Scarlets will have a huge say when they get their Welsh contingent get back. Maybe Warriors and Ulster (if they turn it round ver ver quick)

I would just LOVE to see Treviso in the Playoffs.

by Guest Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 20:18

I certainly hope so Gibbo. Matthew Rees made a huge difference today. Our driving maul was superb in the second half! (I can scarce believe I typed that). The returning lads are going to have to fight for their place though. Liam Williams on the wing and Adam Warren at centre were great today and Dan Evans has got his confidence back and played a blinder with the boot from fb. Really pleased for him.

Just found out that my brother is only back for New Years this year and not Christmas Sad

Boo

by Cari Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 21:09

That's a shame Dreamer - didn't you say he was going to the Castres game? I'm not spending Christmas with my familiars this year. It'll be a bit of a dampener anyway cause my brother-in-law's off to Afghanistan for six months next week, so I'm going to do something else instead for a change.

by Guest Sat 29 Oct 2011 - 21:16

Yeah he's back for 2 weeks in November although he'll spend most of that time in London catching up with friends I guess, will be nice to see him for the rugby though Smile

What do you reckon you'll do for Nadolig this year instaed then?

and wow, i just checked on Sportsguru and for the football one, I am in the top 1%! I am 32nd out of over 3,500! ha that's awesome, even if it is a complete fluke Smile
