The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Millennium Stadium 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 pub has teleported itself inside Millenium Stadium this week to see if the men in red can manage a Slam. There's also TVs showing the other 6N matches, the U20s and Womens' matches, Super XV, the "Classic" match and LV= Cup action.

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the pictures of Mervyn Davies and Jock Hobbs above the bar!

Jeez Tom Court at TH against this England Front Fow will be interesting

Yikes...

God, this is like watching cheap paint attempting to dry. Get Darcy off forfeicssake Deccie.

Me hid hurts. Celebrated a wee bit too early last nite.

Happy Paddy's Day all.

And well done Wales. Well deserved.

Mon Rory, get us going lad.

If there was a God, we'd have George Hook and Brian Moore facing off as pundits.

Are we lucky to still be in this or am I over critical?

I think we are lucky Rav. England are mullering us in the scrum.

A wee bit, we've been poor enough but England have no precision or cutting edge either.

Tom Court actually had a very good first scrum, time to step up. We need Angry Tom!

Actually scrap that I am being overly critical. We have two of the best players on the pitch in Kearney and Sexton. God give us a scrum please!!

Did Dylan Hartley bite Stephen Ferris? The Irish players claim he did.

D'Arcy needs to go now. Time for Kidney to show us his big, brass balls with some big match calls.

The consensus is that Darcy is finished. Please give us a change in the second half.
Thanks Gordie but it's home to go take a break.

Notch something happened. If it was a bite then Hartley should never put a rugby jersey on his back again ever.

Was not surprised when I heard Hartleys name in that context. We'll wait and see the video after the match.

Time for Shaggy to make a comeback.

So your expressions of undying love were drink infused?

Would someone please tell Brian Moore how to pronounce our Full Back's name?

It's not like he is a new face or anything, is it?

Why is Gordon Darcy there?

I know there has only been one scrum since Tom Court came on but I hope George Hook was watching it!

Actually he was Mrs P.

Yeah. But I meant it me darlin. I love you even more sober.

This is going to be a long second half I think

What did Hook say Rava?

I hope not Rava... watching this is killing me.

I think we now see what O'Connell brings to the team. Scrum is woeful. England will win this with penalties no bother.

Hook gave him credit for his first scrum. Doesn't help though. We are being murdered

Linebreaker????

Are you mad altogether?

My team is playing against England in the middle of the day and I'm not sure I'll stay awake till the final whistle!

(I will like, but you know what I mean!)

At least the second game was a ripper. The first and this one....

what the feck... I can see the sun approaching over the Pacific. Beautiful. Worth staying up for!

Penalty try territory now.

I hope you don't have a busy Sunday planned?

Oh jeepers.

Luckily no. Watch some other code in the afternoon. I'll be fine thanks.

Had a feeling this might be one of those games but I tried to 'believe' .... what's this? A bloody ref conversation now? Painful stuff at this early hour.

Penalty try. How unsatisfying that is. Bollix!

I don't think that was a penalty try in truth. Trimble made a try saving tackle as the whistle blew.

Game over I suspect.

We could be slaughtered now. Not many options left.

Why is O'Leary in England at all FFS

This is painful. Genuinely painful.

Our next three test fixtures are against the All Blacks in New Zealand. I don't want to all of see the same faces on that tour.

63 minutes gone. BBC are pointing towards Ben Morgan as MOM already. Just watch how many times they pick him out on camera.

You'll get smashed again going by this performance.

Oh I wish Earls could pass. That's not a critism by the way just think he might have got Bowe away.

A bit cheap Robshaw looking for a yellow card.

Yes we will breaker. Yes we will.

O'Leary has been diabolical since he came on. We are being shoved all over the pitch.

I feel most sorry for Tom Court, who is a pretty handy loosehead and just not a tighthead prop in any way, shape or form.

O'Leary has been a disaster, I'm serious.

God this is a tough one to watch.

The one good thing may be... another serious soul searching session and as Gibbo and others have indicated, some serious changes to critical positions. Maybe the coach too. You guys would know better than me.

Somehow have to pick up the pieces and start afresh. No shame in it but very frustrating for the fans to have to go through the process again. It must be done - no papering over cracks.

This is just a bad day but hopefully things may improve. England really aren't that good a side. Average at best, imo.

I am bleeding here lads but at the same time it's actually a relief because maybe now something will happen with Irish Rugby.
First thing. Kidney must be thanked for his services and sent back to take over at Munster from McGahon. Then we need to try to persuade Conor O'Shea to leave his cushy job at Quins.

The coach should be changed, but we all know he won't at all. We knew we needed changes before this but once again we've ignored the warning signs and had our players mouthing off in the press this week.

We've crumbled here, crumbled. This Ireland team ain't coming back from this. Time for a new broom to sweep through Irish rugby.

Hope he is ok

Terrible news for Muamba and his family. We've seen this before with very tragic results, I pray he lives.

I'm speechless. I have written four posts and deleted them all. I'll be back.
I would say that I did predict two things. I said this England team would do well right at the start of the 6N. I also said that Morgan would be MOM.

Don't despair peeps. Ireland still have quality players, they just need to get their collective mojo back. England have their team spirit back but their are probably no more than 3 you would want in your team.

After that first scrum in Dublin last year I was pleased that we put that to rest today; and then some.

I'm hurting Hound pal. I'm hurting real bad.

But I'd have a word for England and Stuart Lancaster, who have really said 'feic the begrudgers'. A well deserved win and I hope he gets the job. Enjoy your night buddy

Wales =

Ireland =

Well done Mr Lancaster though. I bet the poor man still won't get the job.
