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 Rhys Thomas, Ben Castle, Andy Fenby and Bill McLaren above the bar!

Courting is between 'going out' and getting engaged.

Well girls of Lisburn.

You have been warned!

It does.

'I heard a rumour you where dating so and so'
'Nah we're just courtin''

That is a vile rumour!

I've never even met this "so and so"!

I'm a happily married woman!

I was impressed that Prop didn't need to ask for a translation!

I just assumed it was translated as Courting?!

Apparently they live near a bridge, you sure you were looking in the right place?

Nothing but feicin' bridges in Enniskillen Pete. Built it on an island, didn't they?

well if you bumped into anyone there with the surname of Timlin we are probably related Rava.

Evening all.

I'm enjoying living vicariously through Prop this evening

We won our netball tonight, beating another team we lost to last season so we're 3 and 0. It was so cold though that I played in my track-suit!

Got home to an email from my agent re. the interview the other day:

X felt that there was good fit culturally and thought your A experience would be a good asset to the team. However, he felt that at this stage to complement existing personnel he is looking for someone with heavy experience in B and felt that this didn’t shine through at the interview compared to other candidates. As such, he does not wish to move to second interview

Shame Kiwi.

Ahh kiwi, at least there were positives to take from it!!

That sucks Kiwi.

Keep trying buddy

Always knew Ozzy was a soup-taker. Just like Hughie. You can spot them anywhere.

He looks good all right. Best 12 in Ireland... ;-)

Big team annoucement tomorrow. Do the right thing Deccie. Whatever that is?

In Deccie we place our Trust. Eejits.

Yeah do the right thing Deccie...pick Paddy.....

...seriously, never been so happy with an Irish squad or the form of the players leading into the tournament...I'll be gutted if we're not top 2...actually scratch that, if don't win the competition I'll go bananas....

Deccie has asked Ulster not to confirm the Bowe signing until after the 6N because he doesn't want any more than three Ulster players on the team and it wouldn't be fair to have to leave Trimble out again.

Jeebus may as well just finish this off....long feckin day tomorrow though...mindnumbing day in the office followed by a sport psychology lecture....

Rava don't joke about that man..I seriously was thinking that Bowe coming to Ulster could be the end of Trimble's Ireland career..no way will two blond Ulster wingers get selected.....flip if Gilroy hadn't got hilights he would have had a chance...

MrsP is well auw-fay with all the young Ulster players.

Apparently, and dont quote me on this...

now, was I not meant to do that?

I see Ger Thornley has DOC Darcy and Earls in his "probable" team for today. Problem is he's usually spot on with these teams

I expect D'Arcy and Earls to be there Hughie. Don't think DOC will be in the team. Bench probably.

Morning all. Hope everyone is well.

Bore da pawb / good morning all, and happy February. May all your dreams come true, unless they conflict with mine, in which case you can do one.

Happy St. Bridgets Day to you all by the way, first day of spring today

Does anyone know why Asbo wants to become au fait with young Ulster players?

Has the SRU recruited him for operation,

"Are there any more uncapped players we can nick?"

I think he's just a sucker for the accent, MrsP.

Morning folks

It's fecking freezing here today. Gonna have to break out the old thermals for work later!

How's tings?

Ah no my cold and flu has got worse

I really thought I could shake it last night. I used extra blankets, had boiling whiskey, brown sugar, lemons and cloves, had a load of fruit and hit the gym to sweat it all out of me.

And Im worse. Feic it!!

Drink lots and lots of water Stag.

And morning all, just about to head off to a meeting, hope they finally let me know how to write a darn audit plan, otherwise I'm not going to have a clue

I just want this day to be over so I can get to packing. No more work for me after today until the 9th

I hope to be ok for weekend. I really would hate to miss out (about a 0.00001% chance of happening)

Stag, Dreamer, could you have a pip in the writers section please? And any others about of course. Tavrymuch.

Freezing here too, Ozzy. I've worn my thermals the last couple of days, but I have the car today so they're not needed

Last season for Shane Williams then

Glas I had a read its very good. I have ambitious plans to do a write up later on another subject.

Happy St Brighde's Day, alright, young man

Ah yes today is Bridgits day, must get weaving!

I won't be happy if DOC starts to be honest. Ryan and Touhy in FAR better form. If Kidney wants to pick combinations then why not pick Reddan with Sexton?

Anyone seen the new BBC Sports website? Awful to be honest. It's going to take a lot of getting used to.

I hate it, Willy. I don't know why they felt the need to change it at all.

First day of Spring is 21st March,but I suppose for those of you set on the edge of the earth, it can't come soon enough

Chef the first day of Spring falls on my birthday. (Just for information )

I'm sure there will be a few stars of the future in that U20 Team. Look forward to your updates on progress. Have Agen any good young players coming through?

I am right in thinking the ireland team is announced at noon?
