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 Denis Hickie, Shane Horgan, Ben Morgan and Selorm Kuadey above the bar!

Munster concede a second penalty try at the scrum and it all kicks off...this is amazing stuff! A proper war! Both SHs carded!

You mean today Gibbo? Wallace had a great game too, feel it will be a very close call.

now that'll be interesting Notch!

Who's going to SH for the both of them??

Rhys P is off injured I think (I feel bad for shouting at him now )

Iongi on, Castres with another penalty but they miss.

It's been all them the first 20mins this 2nd half. Crappo, we need to get the ball at somepoint!

Sorry but D'arcy was very poor, worst player on the pitch.

O'Malley had a really good game though...feck sake Kidney be bold and pick the best players! Do yer job man!

Intercept for SHINGLER!!!!!!


Runs most the full length of the pitch, what pace, you wonderous man! THat's what being a wing for the Wales 7's does.

Looks like Munster are just playing whoever arrives last to the ruck, dummy 9.

Atmosphere sounds amazing in Stadium:MK. Just as it was when Ulster played Saints there.

Monster game at Stadium MK. Munster and Saints smashing lumps out of each other. what a day of Heineken Cup rugby!!!

6 - 13, Stevo missed the conversion.

Come ON Munster! Get that Top seeding!

Mafi playing 9...Earls playing very well...this is brilliant!

Oh Flower of Scootlaaand

Wrong Shingler Gibbo!

ha maybe we can still sing that song then, even when Monty leaves us

We need more points, asap, this game is far, FAR from over.

Gibson, are you Ross O'Carroll-Kelly in disguise??

Ach, all those Scots look the same to me!

Disguise???

What disguise?

oooo great tackle Sanjay! Castres were so close there.

Rain has started to piddle down there now, might play into Castres hands.

Ah no O'Leary coming on! Thats the game for saints then!

Well Dreamer, I loike, dont do a Munster HC brekkie (Wash face & scratch balls) but yeh, a bit.

Shifts sunglasses to head-position, adjusts cashmere sweater to align it purfuctly over shoulders, looks in the mirror, to check we are Champions of Yurop. Sees 3 yellow stars on shirt.

Yes. I am.

ZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!



Munster 1st seeds. Thank phhok!

Great kick from ROG, guy has ice in his veins...

The bar has been raised for Irish rugby this weekend...Kidney are you watching sir...its time for another GS..no excuses!

Well there it is! Munster are top seeds. 6 out of 6 and rounding it off with a TBP on the road

But I heard on the internet they are 'past it' so I'm not sweating it

In all the fuss did anyone notice that Ex beat Perp to top their group and get an Amlin Quarter Final spot?



I wonder is Asbo still in that Hot tub?

NOOOOOOO Castres score.


NOOOOOOO.


ah balls mun, this is not what we needed! (has been coming though, they've been great 2nd half, only some superb last ditch defence has kept them out till now)

MrsP wrote:Wrong Shingler Gibbo!

Oh roysh. Not too well up on Shingler's Lists. They are all foreign to me.

I'll say one ting, Munster are the best team left in the Cup. Now.

Gibbo Quote: " NO way Munster will get a TBP."

Ah yeah.

It is fortuitous and Im happy about it.

Earls has been magnificent.



As has ZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

That's great for Exeter.

he gets the conversion

13-13 with 10 mins to go.

I'm not sure I can take this. Other results are going our way, c'mon Scarlets, PLEASE!

This is brilliant!!! Surely 50 points!!

Flip me, Simon Zebo! Go on!

Ireland have really handed it to England in a big way over the past two weeks! Ulster and Munster showing them up and setting themselves on a collision course!

Gibbo I agree on the Darcy/Earls centre partnership. Wallace was sublime today but you are right about Darcy he had his best game of the season.
I wasn't impressed by McFadden (Madigan's shadow) except for one break near the end.
I just can't see him at 12 atm. Thats totally opposite to my view last year. He is in danger of being usurped by O'Malley.

another fantastic tackle by Sanjay!

But this is all Castres, we are so under the cosh here.

Poopie Notch, how could you!!

What about Connacht. Oh and the recent hiding dished out to Bath by Leinster.

Zebo hattrick! Saints have been demolished despite Munster having no scrum! this is amazing!!!

ah Stevo misses a penalty, just wide but twas right on the edge of his range.

Munster are Magnificent!

I mean, hats off to them. They have reinvented themselves in this Cup. Changed their style of play along the way. The HC is nothing without a strong Munster.

Treemendjous!

Yep, it's been a good tournament for wins over the old enemy!

Saints get another try. What a game. What a tournament.

Sounds like Thomond Park. This is a massive statement by Munster after they were being questioned on the manner of their 5/5

Genuine question....

Does the provincial jersey mean more to Irish players than the national one?

...answers on a postcard!

are saints within a LBP?


yes penalty to Scarlets, in the Castres 22, please Stevo, please please get it!

Zebo could be that bolter for Ireland folks. He is special.

YES HE GETS IT!!!!


16 - 13 to Scarlets, 2 mins to go!

Ymlaen Bechgyn!!

In the Zebo v Gilroy challange. Zebo wins today - hands down. Well done young man

Welcome to the big time Mr. Zebo!

Zebo and Gilroy in the last two weeks- two bright, talented young wingers delivering in Europe and they won't even make our 6N squad!

Such depth for us in some positions in Ireland and such paucity in others

Pete,

It does and it doesnt. Hope that answers that one.



Honestly? I feel it deepest when we all play together - under one team. It is special. So, its Ireland for me.

Scarlets win out in France


Best we've played for months, especially the first half. An immense defensive 2nd half display, Foxy and Scott are rock solid fair play and Sanjay's a little hero.

MOTM for me is either Castres no8, or Shingler.

This is the best possible chance now for us to get through to the Amlin, Scarlets mission phase 1, 2 and 3 complete!

haha! just seen the replay of the Shingler try, didn't realise the player he burnt for pace was Max Evans!

Any news on Priestland ?

Ulster to play Leinster or Munster depending on results tomorrow.

Can't decide which I'd prefer! Leinster is a shorter trip and I could stay with my sister. Then again I've always wanted to go to a Heineken Cup game in Thomond Park and Stag owes me a pint (probably).

Hmmm
