The Dew Drop Inn Virtual HEC Final Rugby Pub, Twickenham

First topic message reminder :

Chin chin and 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 arrived in London this week for the Heineken Cup final so has stocked up on cucumber sandwiches ( - KRD ) and Pimms.

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the pictures of Ruan Pienaar, Stephen Ferris, Jonathon Sexton, Rob Kearney and Jonny Wilkinson (the five nominees for the ERC Player of the Year award), Nigel Owens the HEC final referee or Adam Powell (captain of Llanelli RFC who are playing Ponty in the Welsh club final on Friday). The CCTV snaps of Prop_Lyd and the other Cardiff Saracens players on tour in Croatia are fair game though.

Ah Paul McCartney wrote great bass songs. Maxwells silver hammer is cracking!

Amanda bought me a set of really good headphones for my birthday last week, the Beachboys have never sounded so good, so clear, so complicated. Wilson was a genius!

Ok next year please remind me NOT to go back to work the day after tour.......this is simply painful.

'Warmth of the Sun' is stunning on headphones. A perfect production.

At least it's a four-day week for you, Prop!

"my son cuddled in a bad way my daughter and she blames me"



Jeremy Kyle getting very hard hitting these days

Happy Breakerday Linebirth.

Best of luck with the interview Mickyado

Some netballers in NZ have been watching their rugby, using a line-out lift to block a goal http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/opinion/6961558/Questions-need-to-be-raised-on-Mystics-tactics

Hmmm, might have to try that, our Goal Defence is fairly light

Is that allowed in netball, Kiwi?

Apparently there's no rule against it.

It's not uncommon for one defender to hang onto the back of the other's shirt to help them not fall over when really leaning in, so I guess this is just an extension (literally!). You'd have to really get your timing right on the jump/lift though.

give em hell Mick

Afternoon pub, glorious day here

Mickado, hope it went well this morning

Happy birthday LB

Cheers for the Birthday wishes, Billy and everyone... too much cake I'm about to bust.

Nice artwork...

Two more years LB and you'll be as old as me.

BB... and hopefully as wise as you, my friend.

I've been told wisdom comes with age, they just never warned me about this silver hairdo I have been prancing around with for so many years.

So what have you done today breaker?

Work mostly Billy but had quite a few fb messages during the day. 'Twas very nice. Had too much to eat though... squeezing in a few drinks now and all is well.

Well enjoy it to the full mate and take a on me

We'll catch up when you pop in here. That pub at the Rocks or somewhere near there would be good. When is it again... June or July?

I will be there on 6 June mate

2 weeks Wednesday... no probs.
Grab my mobile number off the fb phone list and give us a bell when you arrive. Wednesday, Thursday night OK with me. What day do you leave for NZ?

Breaker

Have a great day!

Cheers Notch.
I'm watching "Classic 90" State of Origin now with the late Rex Mossop commentating. Seems like yesterday watching Les Kiss, O'Connor, ET, Fatty, Blocker, "Bouncing Benny", Walters bros., etc playing.

Happy B Day LB!!!



Just what you needed! More

Thanks MrsP.
I'm gonna need a crane to lift me up I think.

Happy birthday breaker!

Mick- hope your interview went well!

for Breaker....unfortunately none for me.....still pretty fragile!!

I don't know you Linebreaker, were you on the original BBC 606?

Happy birthday anyway from a stranger

Mick, I hope you nailed that interview.

Has MBTGOG never returned to 606 or is he simply under a new name?

Cheers dreamer. Thank-kewwwwyr
Prop, take it easy this arvo mate... a few glasses of water, a stretch, a burp and a fart should resettle things down.

That reminds me, I need to take up yoga again.

that could be dangerous, depending of course what you consumed the evening before.

Scotty,

Munsty is in Tanzania just now!

I see (on Planet Rugby) that Denis Leamy has announced his retirement.

Happy birthday Breaker

Mrs P, did you get a chance to watch that Steve Devine interview I posted on the concussion thread? Sobering.

I was Pete.

However I spent about 98% of my time getting terrorised by Indian posters* on the cricket boards. Getting hammered and hammering back constantly for about 3 years. It was complete hell and a larf all in one. Outnumbered 50:1 at times, trying to defend Australia from all sorts of hilarious comments - some true; some way out. It got too much before, during and after every big match and there'd be a flurry of bans when things got too heated. It got a bit nasty right near the end but then it all evaporated when the Beeb flicked off the switch. I've noticed some of them are on other sites and some are on here too.

*There were more nice Indian and posters too I might add and they had their own ongoing conversation with the Pakistanis. There were also English, Kiwi and SA posters... mostly a great bunch of people. Biltong was there... so he always added some balance.

Ah well I'm sure you've realised where all the good folk are. Mind you I'm sure it's fun to wind up some of those old foes. Perhaps you should have a special birthday arguement with one of them

MrsP is Staggy or Munsty ever going to stay put, ant's in their pants I believe. It's good to hear there are still adventures going on with them. I am always jealous of those two.

Happy Birthday Breaker mate. Make sure there is a lifting plan in place before using that crane

Thanks Rava, and the appropriate signage and evacuation plan.

Is that conjuncture or do you know that to be FACT!!

Afternoon pub, hippy buffday breaker .

Having a late lunch in the sun, but have another few hours on this job before home time.

Hey-ho.

Cheers PJ... enjoy the sun.

All this in depth analysis pre Origin is blowin' ma brain. Both sides have loads of talented players... it's a question of wanting it, whoever cracks first or takes a lucky break and turns it into gold. Some of those plays from Qld in past years were so well executed it made the NSW defense look like complete suckers.

Being 6 series in a row down, I'm quietly optimistic there's still a chance of an upset.

Actually overall, since around the 1890s - it's still something like 210-110 in favour of NSW.

Only since 1980 is it 49-42 to Qld.

5 days of drinking...........I reckon I'd need some sort of air raid siren if I did the last suggestion!!

Prop, wait until you are our age. A couple of days will be more than enough for the drinking. You'll need the five days for recovering

Hoog, just heard the Ocean Colour Scene song about rivers.

Just took a look at the 'Haka' thread. I take it that the mods have given anotherworldofpain the benefit of the doubt? If thats the case then why is this poster still being hounded. Getting really sick of this. Loads of people i have sent here have left because they are being questioned about who they are.
The last thing this site needs is to have posters hound new posters away.

Here here.

I dont care if that fella is Grey Ghost. He doesnt post like he did.

If he is having a laugh thinking he has fooled us then well and good but he isn't getting anyone angry. No big deal.

Actually I have it on good information that one poster is actually Sparky the old stuffed bear that is the Ulster mascot!! Have a guess who after all his claims at being the inside man at Ulster.

Wow, I would have thought his goal kicking would have been better than the effort at half time on Saturday

Its just really ticked me off that i have asked posters to come here and yet when they do they get harassed as being TGG by the same few posters and then end up leaving.
This site will go down hill if this continues. I thought that it was put to rest which is why i recommended people to join again from other forums.
