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 picture of David Sisi, Jannie de Beer and Glen Webbe above the bar!


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

Guys does this guarantee Ulster at least an Amlin spot?

Ulster oh Ulster, you are my Ulster!

What a match!

Well done Ospreys and Edinburgh, well done the Rabo in fact!

This is freaking awesome!

Just saw Godman's DG after the 80 minutes - obviously has recently attended the ROG school of cardiac rugby

Girl, I just feicin LOVE de Heino. No club or international comp comes close.

Yeeeoo Gibbo! Stick that in your Dutch pipe and smoke it!! Apologies for the stereotype man.

Unbelievable performance. Trimble may have got mom but Touhy and Muller and Pienaar were world class tonight.

Ravenhill is absolutely buzzing.

Dave wrote:Guys does this guarantee Ulster at least an Amlin spot?

Thats for sure Dave. But more importantly, it also puts them in for a guaranteed runner-up in the Big One.

Not there yet, but they have given themselves every chance to make the QF's.

And Henry and Marshall and Cave!

Amlin feic the Amlin! Ulster are on the march! 3/4 home quarter finalists Irish? Wouldn't bet against it.

I love it too Gibbo. It i just soo exciting, every year and although we may say at at the beginning of the season that we could predict the last 8 or four, we always get results lke this. I always fancied Ulster to win this, I didn't think they would destroy Leicester.

But you could tell from the off who would win. Ulster attacked the rucks, they chased the high balls, these are so critical to winning rugby games. It is so obvious, I never uderstand why coaches don't tell their team at half time - chase the blydi ball whether it is in the air or in a ruck. It is the way to upset the other team's rhythm and can give you a platform.

That's brilliant guys - obviously want to make the Heino QF's but it's great to get knockout rugby in Europe!!!

Willy,
It was superb dude.

Give me the humble-pie. Give me the soup to drink and Ill eat and drink em.

That was the best performance from an Ulster team since 1999.

Not there yet tho....

But, I have hunch ye may be coming down to Landsdowne for the QF's. That would be the biggest meet, since the Martin Luther-King gig.

Munster v Ulster in Thomond. It will happen and I probably won't be there.

The brown bull verses the white?

Ah bolloks...

Well your last hunch backfired. How good were you at guessing what your offspring would be before they were born?

Very nice Leicester fan just gave me his rugby top. Very cold in Belfast at the moment. He was very peed off though so I didn't want to turn him down!

You have to love the Heino. Monster rugby.

There are very few teams on the planet who could have lived with Ulster tonight. People will slate Leicester or make excuses for them (depending on their allegencies), but the reality is that Ulster were very very very good and made them look ordinary.

There is no shame in losing to a performance such as Ulster gave tonight.

Dave, not sure - I think Glasgow of all currently 2nd place teams have the lowest points on 10 - if they had two TBP wins (v v unlikely) that would take them to 20, but let's be realistic here, Ulster are at least in the Amlin qf, and almost certainly in the Heino qf

Yep, good point well made Ozzy, Ulster were seriously on their game tonight.

But Leicester are still out.


It's Christmas!

S4C highlights

Diolch, Glas!

Ah T, we want a good game man. Not a bore-fest.

Landsowne is calling...

Where are you going for the QFs pal?

Now that was one great game of rugby - well done Ulster. If Mrs P wasn't hoarse before , she will be now! To be honest, I thought the result would go the other way (just) but Ulster were excellent across the board.

Just thinkin, like ya do. Ireland now have 3 serious contenders for this Crown and the IRFU are busy trying to phhok it up for all of us.

Thoughts?

Will be playing rugby I would imagine. Who says it couldn't be plaed in Lansdown or Croker? Double header QF sounds mighty tasty.

Believe Gibbo!

Bought the Leicester gentlemen a pint.

Am planning on getting absolutely ham shanked tonight so I apologise in advance if I stroll in here later and start mouthing off.

Willy, I predicted one of each bud. One gay. One not. Love em both to bits.

Thank you for asking.

Mickado did the same ting with shirts ( he was pished and so happy) Swapped his nice one for a crappy old Saints top at the FINAL(remember them?)

Nah. Long before yer time.
X.

Believe. And enjoy it.

Oooh T. That would be magnificent bud.

If it's the Scarlets and Blues playing Ulster and Leinster it will be special and I'll be there.

I'll be honest and say I'd rather see Edinburgh qualify than the Blues.

I agree Lucky, really like the style of play Edinburgh play!!

Oh I am soooo happy!!!!

Best match ever!

Thank you Rava for the chance to witness that atmosphere and that result.

have to read back now.

Dreamer,

I think you need to change those pictures above the bar to an Ulster team photo!!!

Love to see Scarlets and Ewmbra there, TBH Glas.

Spread the PRO12 lurve man.

The Jeff was humiliated tonight. Only Quins & maybe Sarries, can save their orses in the HC now.

Ulster Saffas v Saffacens? Man.

They just showed highlights of Racing v Edinburgh, Prop, they do play some great rugby to watch. Didn't play too much when we saw them, but you can't have it all!

So glad you could make it MrsP - a game like that HAS to be seen by the real fans (even if they are in the prawn sandwich boxes).

Bet you don't feel so bad now, Mrs P!

Forgive my ignorance here, but why were you singing "Swing Low"? Was this poke-in-the-eye stuff or are there "Ulster" words to the tune?

Kia. It was obviously poke-in-de-eye stuff.

Carry them home?

I started that chant!

It was meant to be, like, totally ironic. Yeesh!

The guy next to me had a better one. To Tom Court after the scrum went down; "GET ANGRY TOM! PRETEND THEY STOLE THE CHARGER TO YOUR KINDLE!!"

I almost sh!t. Brilliant stuff. And sure didn't we get the penalty in the next scrum? Tom Court loves his kindle.

I think I know love Tom Court after his performance!!

Yeah, the Swing low was hilarious, although we did sing it very well.

Confused the living day-lights out of the Tiger fans in our box.

(Will you listen to me with the "OUR box"!!!)

Cockerill was using the box next to us as his technical area. Not the happiest bunny I ever saw.

Tom Court loves you Prop. Tom Court loves you. And let me tell you this;

Tonight "I would rather be an Ulsterman than anything else in the world."

I thought the Swing Low was ironic - and I loved you for it, but as I haven't watched much rugby this season I wasn't sure.

I think someone should Youtube it, like that time at Thomond

One of those rugby moments to enjoy

Sorry Cari, I couldn't keep up the Os updates. My phone was on its last legs and I had to take it for a lie down in my room to charge up.

Saw the first half of the Ulster game 'as live' re-run on Italian Sky. Hitting the hay now - can't keep my eyes open. Too much Nasty Azzurro....

Played Embra - awesome result

Day 2 beckons.
