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!

Anyway that Clarke thing sounds dreadful, I intentionally dont want to see it.

Not good viewing Stag.

Sounds like you've had a gruelling tour of duty there, kick back and get some ZZzzzzz's.

It certainly was MrsP.

Kidney didn't put a tight head on the bench

Few (if any) international coaches put both a loosehead and tighthead prop on the bench. If Kidney had picked a tighthead and a loosehead got injured we'd have same situation.

That's very generous of you Stag

Worried about Kidney being back in Munster sooner than you thought?

Morning all, the burden of the 6Ns is lifted, and it's a beautiful spring morning. Happy birthday to the old man :veryraremidleton:

Huge congrats to Wales. And a big up to New England.

And well done PJ for winning the Guinness Fantasy league.
(I just bet you cheated somehow)

EVERY TIME REF!

HB Gibbo. I'd say enjoy the day but I know you're a man that enjoys each day so continue doing what makes you the great man you are.

Happy Birthday Gibbo... you virile young buck!
I bet you feel 18 still. Enjoy your floating horizontal dance with Mrs G.
(It's good for the arm you know)

And I thought you just turned 32.

Happy birthday Gibbo, may you have at least another 32.

How is the arm by the way? Did the session with Rava help or hinder?

Its grand Breaker Bud. Ive given up jumping off wardrobes onto beds now. She'll just have to put up with conventional methods in future.

hardly likely champ! You'll find other ways I'm sure...

Happy birthday to Gibbo! Deccie might be gone soon so that could help.....
My thoughts on our campaign are outside for those interested. Your Rovers nabbed a point in the 94th minute on Friday Gibbo, jammy feicers.

Rā whānau ki a koe Gibbo

Cheers T. Gowan Rovers!

In other news, AZ got the worst draw possible. Valencia.

Doomed.com.

But at least we made it this far. Ya never know...

Thanks Kiwi mate.

I read your article T. Excellent. Great writer man.

Is it easier the second time around buddy?

Happy Birthday pal!

Rovers were absolute shoite btw, why City decided to sit back when they had an extra man I will never know.

AZ could beat Valencia, Soldado is thier key playmaker but Banega is also a big threat.

You mightn't be able to watch this but if you can, go to the 1:32:30 mark. Have a look at the sending off, I may be biased but I think it's a clear red, don't know what Eoin Hand is seeing. http://www.rte.ie/player/#!v=1140896 Would be interested to hear anyone's thoughts on it.

Morning all

Happy 80th Gibbo, you've done well to last this long me old mate



Just been listening to Adam Jones on talksport this morning. Seems like a real top bloke and made some interesting comments about where Wales recent improvements have come from.

Morning all, hate going back to work, loads to do and just simply want to go back home! Still on a bit of a high from the weekend though and hopefully booking America this week

Belated Happy Birthday to Swanny and a Happy Birthday to Mr Gibbo

Adam Jones is a humble bloke, isn't he, Ozzy?

Yeah, just seems really down to earth. Great player as well. Best tighthead in the world for me.

It's going to be a great battle on the Lions tour between him and Dan Cole.

What I love about Lions tours is nothing is decided until the weekend before the first test and form on tour means everything (unless you're, spit, Clive bloody Woodward). So it's going to be a great battle. How many tightheads will go on tour? Three?

It's the battle for the back-row places in the Test team I'm looking forward to the most. So much talent available all of a sudden.

Oho;

Ferris
Croft
Lydiate
Warburton
Rennie
Robshaw
Faletau
Morgan
Denton

Gonna be tasty. Speaks volumes I can't find any room on tour for the likes of Sean O'Brien.

I think it depends on how big a squad they take really Notch. If they follow Geech's template and go with a smaller tight nit group it could only be 2 tightheads. I personally would go with 2 specialists on each side and someone who covers both.

Ryan Jones is right back to his best and would be a contender, too.

If I was picking a Lions squad right now it would be....

Best, Rees, Hartley
Corbisiero, Healy, Jenkins, A Jones, Cole
AW Jones, Gray, Evans, Parling
Ferris, Lydiate, Croft, Warburton, Rennie, Faletau, Morgan

Phillips, Blair, Youngs
Farrell, Priestland, Sexton

Roberts, Barritt, Davies, Tuilagi
North, Bowe, Kearney, Halfpenny, Hogg, Trimble

That's a 35 man squad with most bases covered. Having said that plenty of time between now and the actual tour for it all to change.

Wow, that's some squad Ozzy. Its got everythang. Power, pace and no end of skill. The Oz front row are dead in the water. But their backs like to run around ye. Sooo... nice contrast.

Be some Tour.

Staggy Tours Inc...

You going out to Oz next year Gibbo?

For me:

Halfpenny, Kearney
North, Cuthbert, Strettle, Bowe
Davies, Beck, Williams, Roberts
Sexton, Farrell, Hook
Phillips, Youngs, Murray

Jenkins, Corbisiero, Healy, Jones, Cole, James
Best, Owens, Ford
Jones, Evans, Gray, Ryan
Lydiate, Ferris, Warburton, Rennie, Faletau, O'Brien
