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 pictures of Steve Shingler, Tim Visser and Sean Maitland above the bar!


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

Sorry to hear about the Sarries Penfro. I hope that they can turn it around for you.

MrsP - I'll always have Tommy...in here

Well, you can have a back then. But only for your Sarries supporting bit.

Your Os supporting bit is always mean to Ulster.

Hi Cari!

See Penfron.

Some Os fans are nice to us Ulster fans!!!!

I hear our Tommy didn't get much time on the pitch last night?

Is he okay?

MrsP - no he was the replacement. He needed not to start for a change it motivates him. He scored a try anyway. I actually didn't watch the match last night, but I saw a clip of T's try.

MrsP I was only having a pop back at Rava for suggesting I jump ship - I'll stick with THE Sarries and the O's through thick & thin - you don't choose who you love

I hadn't been told that bit. In fact I was told he didn't get on at all but I realised that must have been wrong.

We didn't even get to LISTEN to the Ulster match last night as we had a power cut!

I was out at the Panto P4 was dancing in but had asked MrP to text me the score at half time. He only got about 20mins in and all the lights went out. Came on for about 20mins at 10pm then off again till 3am!

Trying to get organised for our very early start in the pitch dark was not fun!!

GIBBO - class my friend, just class. Recorded a doc on BBC4 a wee while back but not watched it yet. LEGENDS: Thin Lizzy - Bad Reputation

That looked more of a try than Cardiffs effort earlier!

Probably the right call. Just sayin'.

Scarlets win 16-14, despite goose egging the second half

Dudley Phillips is a...teacher

I know Dreamer doesn't agree, but Priestland is pants and Davies and Williams are just too similar (she does agree with that bit)

Off to bed, I'm Ozzy's website.

Ozzy's website ?

Mon Munster!

Must be drunk.

It involves hand-cuffs and battons. Ya dont want to know Penfro.

I am an honorary and fully paid-up... member.

Tell him Mrs P.

The coven Your wife and her friends looked very fetching in their red coats Pendro, especially the blonde one.

Love to see Treviso get a BP. They are worth it here.

Stunning break by Mafi. He is really getting back to his best. Timely for Munster.

The coven You have cheered me up

It's the role of the Scarlets and their supporters to brighten peoples lives

Hubble Bubble Toil and Trouble. Is MrsP gone to bed yet?

She's their Queen she is...

Feic. ROG goes off having created nothing all night and on comes Keatley and Munster score a try. Where's Sin when you want the feicer

Zebo is a bit special isin't he? Liking the look of him. Hope Munster dont drive that individual streak out of him. Same with Earls. They could be special in the same team. Add Felix Jones and Munster are edging towards sexshy.

God Forbid.

I can see it now "it's time you pulled your socks up Simon"

Hecate = queen of the witches

I didn't think Munster did "sexshy", Gibbo or is the emphasis there on "shy"?

Mafi is doing well but his one move tonight is working for some reason. His step inside is getting him yards and his passing was alright. I know it was only Treviso but Munster backline play today was better than it has been for as lot of the year. Earls at centre looked pretty good. Strong in defence put in a decent kick and showed some decent hands.

I still feel Munster backs stand a bit too deep. But Treviso backs stand really, really deep.

Mutual disrespect?

They do Notch. There is only one Irish backline that is playing well at the moment and that is leinster's.

There speaks a man who didn't see Ulsters tries versus Edinburgh

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_union/16395895.stm

Notch, first try was just hands everyone should be capable of that. Second had nothing to do with the backs. 3rd was a very good break and decent offload. 4th was admittedly a great try.

IF(as in very very large IF), ye really utilised those aformentioned individually talented players, and set them free... A-la Schmidt. Ye could be sexshy. Not saying ye will. That would be Heresy.

Just sayin...

Imagine Munster actually playing open, sexshy rugby. And winning?

Nostradamus says... No.

X.

I must have a different callendar than you lot.

I thought it was Charles Addam's Birthday not "Bash the Ulster fan" day!

Ah no MrsP. Thats next week on Tuesday.

Im watching Bull Riding (National; Anthem time) from deepest USA now. Why? Cos its on the Munster stream. Yanks should be culled really.

I knew John Hayes had retired but I thought he'd just concentrate on the farming now. Hadn't realised he had a whole new career stateside!

Gibbo, you think that's bad watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZ2jwqhNtCI&feature=related

Mrs P. Thomomd is worried, very worried, that Ulster might just be on the verge of being Irelands No. 2 province at the minute.


On the way to No. 1 of course

I do agree with you but it all comes down to the traditions of the team and public perception doesn't it? Even if Munster were to remove the shackles form Earls, Zebo and Jones; and were to play free-flowing open rugby a la Leinster in NLR v Bath a few weeks ago, people would STILL say Munster played up-the jumper rugby and that their team is forward dominated.

Some myths will never lie down. ( I know this - I have researched and written on myths ).

Swiching provinces for a while - what the heck has happened to Connacht? Beaten 20-6 by Aironi. This is not a dig at Aironi, but I thought Connacht were better than 13 straight defeats ...

Kia is right Munster will never ever be appreciate no matter how the play. People lauded Leinster for going over to Toulouse and playing free flowing rugby. Munster did it first. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFJX3JbO3vU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZjMCkiA_iM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gp3FYUekFpU

I'm not impressed by Connacht having seen them recently but Aironi at home are never easy.

Kia & Thomond. Lets get this straight now, roysh. Ye have never, nor will ye ever, be a sexy team to watch. It's in yer blood.

To change that, would be tantamount to treason.

Just sayin.

I love Munster. They brought my country to the fore in rugby. Leinster and Ireland, would be nowt without ye paving the way and making us step-up. Everyone knows that.
This ones for our Munster. Feicin culchies.
