The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub

by Guest Tue Dec 20, 2011 12:00 pm

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 wedding pictures of Father Christmas, Sean Lamont and Paddy Wallace above the bar!

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

This year I will be getting up early and going visiting with the GF to her family. excited by that as even after 5.5years I still haven't met everyone.

Then back to play with the nephew and have dinner with the family before heading down to herself again that evening and spending time with her family.

Rince & Repeat for Stephen's day. although still trying to get to the Ulster game. it's a long shot though.

I can understand that your comment was directed at Mrs P but a person can get hurt by association you know. I drive an automatic diesel.

Amanda’s is going down to Cork tomorrow morning for the week so I’m getting my pressie tonight. Loverly stuff! Smile

Morning all, just over 24 hours until I get to go home woo!! Also had confirmation that my application has arrived up in Scotland Braveheart

by Mickado Thu Dec 22, 2011 10:07 am

Honestly, not a dig at all pal. It was a good stroll, I was only slagging you when you arrived anyway, I wouldn’t have done it if I didn’t want to.

Eoin might want a ticket, give him a shout. Nobody else is around to go with me though, arra I don’t mind going on my tobler. Done it before.

There are no tickets remaining for any sections of the ground, and tickets will not be on sale at the gates on match day.

Ah Asbo Asbo Asbo!

So many directions I could take this.

Which to chose???

Should I go down the,

Mick, I see there are only 500 tickets left for the Boxing Day game. I wish I was going to that. I would have been able to keep you company while A is away in Cork The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub - Page 8 3602195817

Ah shame you're not coming down Rav, but sure it's a very awkward time of year for away matches, a few hours out of the gaff is one thing but I understand that nobody will be going. As i said though, i've been to matches on my own before, doesn't bother me a bit. Although, without Mick it's hard to know if the crowd are shouting "booooooooooooo" or "luuuuuuuuuuuuke" Laugh

Hi all, on my own in the office today but its my last day. The boss has left a box of chocs and a bottle of wine on my desk . . . . . . .and a corkscrew

This is pure Class: -

The producers of this beer commercial borrowed a small150 seat cinema playing a popular film, and filled 148 of its seats with rough-looking tattooed bikers, leaving only two free seats in the middle of the theater. They then allowed theater management to sell tickets for the last pair of seats to several young couples.

What would you do? Watch till the end ......

Arrrggghhhhhh!

Nevin Spence out for 4 weeks!!!!

We are seriously short of HEC registered centers!!!

by Guest Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:06 am

what's wrong with him MrsP?

by **Notch** Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:07 am

Rib injury- he DEFINITELY shouldn't have played against Aironi then.

EDIT; My bad- it's his ankle. Separate, new injury.

by red_stag Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:09 am

Silly boy shouldn't have played if not fit. I remember being shot down for saying so on an earlier thread.

by MrsP Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:09 am

Ankle ligaments Dreamer.

We are already missing Wallace and Luke Marshall isn't registered because he was injured just before the squad was submitted.

He is fit again now but very short of game time and I'm not totally sure if we already used our injury joker to replace Payne?

by **Notch** Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:10 am

Actually this injury has nothing to do with the injury he had going into the game.

MrsP, according to multiple sources Luke Marshall isn't fit right now anyway. He's not been involved with the Ravens the last two weeks due to injury.

Ian Whitten to 12, with either Terblanche or Cave outside him.

by Guest Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:10 am

ah unlucky. Busy schedule this time of year though so guess injuries are sort of inevitable for all teams.

by red_stag Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:11 am

Ah right new injury.

by MrsP Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:11 am

Stag,

I really don't think playing with bruised ribs caused his ankle sprain!

Sure you only changed it a second ago. You originally said it was a rib injury which he had going into the match.

by Rava Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:13 am

He will struggle to make the Leicester game but Paddy Wallace should be back for that one.

by red_stag Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:14 am

Much better for Ulster. He is an actual 12. Spence is only filling a gap due to both him and LMarshal being out. What about Ian Whitten

by MrsP Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:15 am

Wrong again Stag!!

Have you been at that Wine already???

Asbo,

Hug

by **Notch** Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:16 am

I imagine Ian Whitten will start with Cave over the Christmas period. Those two have played a lot of rugby together and it shouldn't cause too much disruption.

Hopefully Wallace will be fit soon, we need him.

He's joining an elite group with that injury!!

by MrsP Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:24 am

Hopefully Spence will listen to his medical advisers and not tell them porky pies about his injury!!!!

Porky pies? Surely at this festive time you mean mince pies.

Make sure it's a tidy coat, Willy.

Irish peeps - I see Alan Quinlan has called on Paul Marshall, Peter O'Mahony and Eoin O'Malley to see game time in the Six Nations.

by WillyGilly Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:40 am

Our Paul Marshall stag? Was he high? POM maybe EOM not a chance. If it's anyone new to come in it has to be Mr Cave.

O'Mahony and O'Malley could possibly yes.

I suspect Marshall will get some during the 6N as well........... but it will be with Ulster.

by red_stag Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:45 am

Would you have Marshall ahead of Tomas O'Leary?

by Guest Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:46 am

ah more chocolates delievered to the admin team in work, this is going to keep us stocked up in treats till at least the the first week of Jan Wink

by Luckless Pedestrian Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:54 am

Morning Dreamer, will you be going to the Ospreys match on Boxing Day?

by WillyGilly Thu Dec 22, 2011 11:57 am

To be honest stag if it came down to it I'd flick a coin.

by Guest Thu Dec 22, 2011 12:00 pm

I surely am Lucky! and fingers crossed my dad makes it as well, he's going to the doctors about his back today.

Sell out for it, and it's been sold out for well over a week, should be a cracking atmosphere there, always is for the derby matches!

by Luckless Pedestrian Thu Dec 22, 2011 12:03 pm

Awesome news that it's a sellout. Should be a humdinger!
