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 picture of newly retired Gareth 'Alfie' Thomas.

Also a special picture of Thomas Domingo and wishing him all the best on a speedy recovery.

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



Last Pub: https://www.606v2.com/t17283-the-dew-drop-inn-virtual-rugby-pub

I have five eggs on the fridge but no Bacon or sausages, think its boiled eggs for brekkie

Ha, rub it in why don't you?


ooooh I want it to be 3pm on Saturday already, where I'll be stood on the terracing at Parc y Scarlets, ready to cheer on my team. Heineken Cup rugby....magical. Can't wait!

There's little in rugby thats better than HEC Rugby

Heineken Shmeineken.

Luckless, playing Quins and Brive last year felt just as exciting as the Heienken Cup (think I was in denial and refused to accept we were in the baby competition).

I got on that course. Should be excellent to have on my CV and more importantly some much needed new information for in my head.

Mick,

How do you see your game against Montpellier going?

I’m a bit nervous about it Munsty, I was looking at their league position but I won’t take too much from that, they seem to be really geared up for their first HC appearance, just check out their website!

http://www.montpellier-rugby.com/

The battle of the backrows will be worth the admission price I think, it could be a good tussle but as per, I’d take a 0-3 win away in France any day!

I watched the Brive v Munster match last season, it was a great game, though perhaps not from a defence coach's point of view.

I do actually like the Heineken Cup, even though I have to watch the matches on my fliptop.

I won't be making the trip to Barf I'm afraid, I can't answer for MickyT but I'd say he's the same. If tickets become a problem though, let me know I might be able to do something from my side

Mickado, I'm certain that we could do with some help getting tkts, so any that you can sort out your end would be fantastic

With hollandaise sauce and meringue.

Sprinkled with chilli flakes...

Ewww, messy, and burny!

And leave the eggshells so witches can go to sea in them. Apparently.

You have mail squire!

Afternoon y'all,
Hope your weather has improved like it has here,sunny, and almost warm-jeans and rugby shirt temperature

Glas, read about your health problems and treatment; a real bummer

Toulon will play their Amlin game at Bourgoin tomorrow.Bets are open on the attendance figures

I just burned a whole heap of work related stuff that I no longer need in the wood burner. Most therapeutic

Excelltn Swanny good on you.

I've had a productive day. Put the finishing touches on our Ireland v New Zealand package and been doing big work in redesigning our website.

And a hectic last hour stag haha

Swanny you coming to bath?? I hope so

Promise I'll try Hughie but it really depends on how things pan out. I'll do my best to be there though

Yea I've been very productive organising my own tour to UK Much more important.

It would be really lovely if you could make it Swanny


My wisdom tooth has just started playing up not good!

That's what I like to hear, tours aren't the same without you and el Sharpo

Swanny will I get to meet up with you in Chester?

I haven't got that much work done in weeks... Need to take tomorrow off i reckon.

Messages from London to Dublin, Dublin to London, relayed to Amsterdam, back to London to Dublin, VIA Limerick


It's all good mick haha

We're quite the networkers. Thats the beauty of rugby - it opens so many doors.

Grand idea Stag! Why didn't I think of that? I'm only a 40 or 50 minute drive away depending on traffic, and how heavy I am with my right foot We'll definitely meet up in Chester

Logistical nightmare. But a lot of fun none the less. I'm well jealous of ye, just tip a beer onto the kerb in my honour, and also Matt Dance for me outside the Rec, that's all i ask...

Consider it done

Cant wait. Due to trains I'll only have 3-4 days in CHester.

Just so everyone is aware,


Bath v Leinster is sold out, kia has a certain number of tickets (dont know how many) and asbo managed to pull two from somewhere this morning, so we Defo have two tickets

Easy on the 500,swanney!!

Seems like I can't post on the tickets convo on FB, so hughie,Kia sent a message on the Dew Drop events page, saying she has 8, and needs only 2,so....

Just read on Rugbyrama that D. Armitage has been suspended for the 4th time this season;surely a mistake,he was in NZ,wasn't he? Perhaps 4th time this calendar year,which must, in any case, be an inglorious record,even Cudmore doesn't get that!!!

What was it for this time, Chef? Another cheap shot? If so, it's frustrating to see from a player who's very good when he sticks to the actual rugby.

So that puts us up to 10

So who's confirmed for Leinster game??


Kia +1
Chef
Asbo
Gibbo
Me +1
Stag
Dreamer
Prop
Luckless
Glas
Penfro
MrsPenfro

I make 14 have I missed anyone??

Hughie, I've said I don't mind watching the match in a pub.

5 weeks for a dangerous tackle on Tom Biggs, then a knee job on Attwood;and I thought Lawes was nasty

hughie,You checked the Gibbo connexion yet?

Ive text him chef, no reply as yet

I said it on facebook, I don't want to go if a Leinster fan is missing out. I'd love to see the game but if needs be we can have pints and pub grub instead.

Huggy - I'm happy to watch it in a pub (as long as I'm not on my own) and herself has said "Don’t get me a ticket for Bath – Leinster, I’m going shopping!"
So don't worry on getting me a ticket, just be great to see you all again

Isn't ACDC Pete coming to Bath?

I'm on the trail of another 4 - long shot, but ye never know

Mick(TEFC) wrote:Isn't ACDC Pete coming to Bath?

He was looking into it, i think? But he won't come if we all keep bringing up Armitage's record!!

What Penfro said ^

Mrs G may be up for the shopping part if Mrs P needs company Penfro.

yeah what Penfro said, am happy with the pub.

And you will not believe what has just happened!

Am out, walking in the horrible drizzle of my lunch break to go and buy some food, when I see this rather attractive bloke coming up the street about to walk past me and it's only Stephen Jones!! STEPHEN JONES!!

He's even more wonderful up close :swoon:

Got the stupidest grin on my face. Ridiculous a rugby player can have this effect on me.

That's awesome, Dreamer. Did you say anything to him, or didn't you realise in time?

In the drizzle, wearing galoshes?

Dreamer, I had a dopey grin on my face when I met Roy Keane, surely you've met him before though?

I hope you spoke to him Missy!

As for the grin...well, no one saw me after my run-in with a player.
