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 Ben Morgan, Stuart Hogg, Simon Zebo and birthday boy Penfro above the bar.

What a great game.

Ah Rava lets not be like that. Either of us. I disagree with your take on the next few games and you disagree with me. Whats the issue?

I honestly get rightly pished off with this "pity I cannot have my say without criticism" guff. Its a rugby discussion board. You said something I disagreed and thats the whole reason we post. We dont get personal about things and can continue to respect each other.

No no no! Don't tell!

Wow! Cardiff City up 1 - 0 as well! Would be an awesome weekend of Welsh sport if they won.

Not a problem but I am not critising your view on the teams chances. I am critising your view that I am over the top.

Next to me on the Prom, enjoying a game of rugby

Well, okay then. As long as you promise not to try to smuggle "you know who" back home with you!

MrsP - fortunately for Ulster, the baggage allowance between here and Ireland on the flights is a bit stingy....

Notch - you might regret that...although I'm not aware of showing anyone else up before...

I reckon you'd take the financial hit of the excess baggage charge if you thought you'd get away with it?

I'm not sure if that sort of baggage would get passed by the sniffer dogs...

I'm glad this match has turned out to be an exciting affair. I was concerned it'd be one-sided.

That was awesome forward play. Fofana looks such a strong player.

If Scotland cleared up some of their little mistakes, they'd be winning this by a fair bit.

Wayne Barnes is a banker....

Oh BBC won't show the streaker!!!!

Streaker at Murrayfield.

Should've played this:

What was the point of the announcement afterwards saying respect the players and stay off the pitch blah blah....?

France get another win without really playing terribly well.
Scotland are on the up for sure but it's not going to be easy keeping this up on the back of defeats.

Question for irish regs. Does that result bode well for Ireland? Scotland's much critisized backline got 2 tries today. Surely, provided we perform, that's a good omen?

Only if we perform though.

Well Medard won't be playing next Sunday surely Willy?

Jebus, Guscott is sore about Wales winning yesterday. He keeps making digs about it.

Gutted for Medard, I was on the phone so missed what actually happened, did it look a serious injury? He is one of my fave's.

I didn't see the injury occur Dreamer, but he was being helped off the pitch. Looked like he'd turned an ankle, or hurt his foot.

hmm, fingers crossed not too bad then. He's been one of France's best players I think, would be a shame for someone as good as him to miss too much of the tournament.

Cari,

Just to be clear.

You know the way you wanted to be on the terrace for easy access to the pitch?

Well, you weren't planning any little....surprise pitch invasions like the one Murrayfield has just witnessed?

He is pretty dreamy like.

Good grief no! I'm too slow a runner, and I've seen how cold and wet it gets up there...

Re: the streaker - they showed him on French TV....

We should smash them Willy. I don't care what anyone says that is a very, very poor French side. No heart, no fitness and no commitment. We should batter them but of course we'll pick Conor Murray at 9 and play right into their hands with his slow service and box kicks........

Do you think Murray will start at 9 next week?

I'm actually watching the roundball. Would be tidy if Cardiff won it for a change.

Cari wrote:Do you think Murray will start at 9 next week?

100% yes. He's Deccies love child no 3 after ROG and Earls.

Oh dear....I really hope Ireland win though.

How long's a roundball match?

90mins.

Or, to put it another way,

Far too blooming long!

90 min Cari would be great if Liverpool lost!

Yes I think Murray will start. He hadn't his best game yesterday but he's only just got into the team and shouldn't be jettisoned on the back of one below par performance. It's not like him to be slow so I hope it's just a matter of having a word during the week. I can't see Kidney making a lot of changes if any.

Well it's more like the local am-drams society at the minute...players seeing a handball when there wasn't one even I knew that! Looks like a good atmosphere though.

Its not one performance Rava his last couple have been like that.

His service was pretty quick when he first came on the scene so hes clearly been coached to slow everything down.

Personally I think Reddan is defying the gameplan hence he won't get picked.

C'Mon Rory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rory going well Mrs P

He is!

He was 3 down after 4 holes and now he's 3 up with 4 to play!

The Pro 12 has closed the gap in the 6 nations, but for all Scotland's improvement effort and attacking intent France just smothered them (with the aid of Barnes' leniency it has to be said) in the last 10.

What a tournament we're having this spring.

It was quite funny when they showed him by accident though wasn't it. You almost sensed the cameraman realising what he was focusing on and moving the camera away really quickly

Waahey!!

Rory Mac through 3 and 1!

The one guy who blatantly deserves to be starting for Ireland and isn't is Donnacha Ryan. I'll be mystified if he isn't picked. The others at least are close calls.

Absolutely agree Notch. Hope it happens.

I've just eaten the most delicious roast beef dinner num num.

Jebus - I gave up watching the roundball and it's still going after 45 minutes extra time and now penalties 2 goals each. Fairdo's Cardiff aren't going quietly then, but I feel they'll lose...eventually.

Cari - Belueve!!

Adv. Cardiff

Cardiff have been to Wembley a few times and never win.

...just as I said that Cardiff City's goalie just saved Gerrard's kick!

45 mins of added time!



That must be some injury list!

yeah MrsP...and Cardiff's bounces off the post and the next Liverpool guy misses as well....drama!

Jeebus I would have bet on Miller scoring.

Adams misses as well

Cardiff get one....
