The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub, Cross Keys

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 ventured to Cross Keys, as their team is in the British and Irish Cup Final.

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the pictures of Richie McCaw, George Smith, Robert Nash,Billy Holland, John Muller, Greg Laidlaw, Aurelien Rougerie, Leo Cullen, Rhys Thomas and Iestyn Thomas.

Biarritz v Brive was a v poor game. Yachivilli stood out, and Biarritz win 19-0. Handbags at the end turned nasty and Brive no.3 recieved a red card int he 82nd minute. Stupid when they ahve such a big game next week.

Went to watch Tredegar v Ebbw Vale (true Man of Gwent me). Ebbw won 52-0 so win their league again.

Crosskeys' flight got cancelled. Just what they need with their hangovers. Think they must be swapping flights though.

Just wanted to pop in and wish my Ulster friends the very best of luck. This Munster fan will be screaming in your corner

And this...err, and me.

PM for Thomond.

chat box is open for this one, just so you all know



oooo HEC rugby, I blydi loves it.

Oh no I though I had a link for the game. I dont.

HELP!!!

PM for you.

how come you decided against going in the end then??

I had a nap from 2-3 and I visited my grandparents instead. Plus I have to go to dublin tomorrow evening. Plus I had no ticket

ha, fair dos then, lots of reasons

ooo here we go. I love it.

And we're off!

Great start by Edinburgh.

OK I need to concentrate in full. No comments for a while. Great start so far.

Best of luck to both teams except Edinburgh

Evenin' all - and thanks once again to Thomond for his Heineken Cup links!

This has no bearing on anything, but I really don't like Miles Harrison as a commentator.

Edinburgh forwards making decent ground every time.

Good continuity from Edinburgh then. Patient stuff.

That's a huge scrum. Yes Pedrie!!!

I am loving this game to be fair. I am finding myself supporting Edinburgh a wee bit, though I do want Rav etc to have their team in the final. Can't explain why.

Tis a v good game so far Rev, loving it.

Edinburgh's offloading is brilliant to watch. Little knock-ons costing them so far.

Edinburgh letting Ulster off here. They look much the more dangerous side.

Agree with you there Lucky.

Needless offside from Lee Jones and Pienaar makes him pay.

Hush you welshies! How many times have Edinburgh knocked on though? My word.

Cop out by Poite there. That's a blatant yellow.

Tis a crazy about Willy, their fans must be going potty!

Rev - agreed.

Willy, Ulster are leading, that's all that counts! Stephen Ferris should have seen yellow for that, though.

Got to say though, as a neutral, that's been a cracking first half of rugby.

Absolutely. I'd hate to be watching it as a supporter though. I'd be suffering.

Definitely! It must be maddening, but then, that's the magic of the HEC. Sometimes, you just can't beat it

I am rev!!!

Our scrum has been dominant. Our defense superb. I'd prefer it if we didn't give Edinburgh as much territory as we're giving them.

Cor 3-0 after a full half, low scoring match

aah Glas! I forgot the updates! sorry! Will start sending straight away, tis just so exciting I can hardly take my eyes off it....

Rev I wasn't this nervous on my wedding day

It's OK Dreamer, back in the house now and Thimond has sorted me out with a little something. Thanks all the same

Sounds like a cracking atmosphere there, Rava! Where are you sitting?

Bless you Willy and Rav. I hope they come through for you.

Missed the first half but heard it was a controversial try. Another bad decision goes Ulster's way.....


SUFTUM!

One point in it!

ah sure, at least I wasn't sending updates to the completely wrong person like some do

Ruan Pienaar's a class act, isn't he?

He is Lucky, he could be the difference here.

My feed's gone down!

Lucky, PM.

These knock-ons are killing Edinburgh.

It's okay, Thomond, I've found another!

I sent it lucky, there's more links in it then ever before so it might be of use anyway.

22 -12. That could well be that.

Final minute. Enjoy it lads!
