The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub, Sea of Tranquility, Luna

First topic message reminder :

Hello 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 made its way to the Moon, in honour of the late Neil Armstrong. One small step for man ...

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no tampering with the pictures of Lance Armstrong in yellow, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin moonwalking, or the shot of Joe Ansbro breaking the line.

I'm watching Treviso v Os on Scrum V. TWO O's players off! 1 yellow and one RED! The Champs are on the ropes.

And an Irish ref will get a virtual Welsh pasting later. Some things will never change.

12-3.

Gibbo - this is for you...

Spoiler:

Gibbo - there's one player off not two. Both incidents were due to the same pillock

Ireland just won a Gold in the swimming!

BP before HT. Try Dan Evans again. 32-6 at HT. who'd have thought it.

I'll gladly slag Clancy off. Whistle happy chopper

Gibbo - it was KiwiPete who found that pic by the way I pinched it off him - you posted before I'd finished

Biggar for the Lions. Chocolate bars that is.

Nice handbag Gibbo. Who'd you rob it off?

FAIL Gibbo. I had just started watching it Cari. Thanks for clearing that up.

Wooooohoooo

Ulster try

But standard NOC misses his third kick in a row.

David Weir through to the 5,000m final on the track too, sell out crowd in the stadium as well, love it.

Evening pub

Is MrsP really in Manchester? Would love the chance to meet up and say hello.

Holy cow!!

Hannah Cockroft just stormed to 100m Gold, in a paralympic record! Forget the gap Bolt gets over people, she was clear, CLEAR out of sight. That was amazing!

Boooooooooooom Glasgow putting the pressure on and Gilroy pops up with an intercept try. Great stuff

The prostitutes of Treviso are unlikely to see any custom
from the Off-sprays tonight. couldn't score in an engraving class.

Glas you going to Y Parc yfori?

6:30pm, long after sheep hours....

There is a chance. Depends if Mamgu can have Miss G as there's a wedding in the Castell.

ah well, fair enough, let me know if you are going.

Won't be able to meet before the game but should be in the barn a bit afterwards.

37-6 FT. We switched right off second half. Late Prydie pen So at least we won both halves.

Clancy likes favouring Italians against Welsh ones mind. There was a dog here who has bad ears now from hearing his whistle so much.

Treviso beat the O's for the first time ever. Not a great match, still, hats off to them, that's a cracking start for them.

Aye OK. Will have to try and muster some charm.



So don't hold your breath...

Boollocks. What a bum start. FT 12 - 6.

aye okay Glas!

Cari - aye not the best, just looked really rusty. Weren't far off nicking that though, specially considering you were down to 14 men for 50 mins.

NOC with a penalty to finish the game 18-10. He finished with 3 from
7 kicks... And people wonder why we didn't want him. Seymours try brought it back to within 5 points. NOC kicking could easily have cost us this game.

He kicked really well for Connacht last season though I thought?

Now now, he had a good game Rev. Just enjoy being Top Of The World Maw and stop moaning about Irish refs. O's shot themselves in the foot. If it was Biggars foot, they would have missed.

Gowan de Dragons! My team won by a canter.

My other team will tonk ye next weekend tho.

Must have left his boots out west.

I should think so too Gibbo. At least we have some fire in our bellies at home though. So pleased.

Drinks all round, but I can't be arsed pouring them.

+1
We need a strong Treviso to enhance our league. Im happy for them. Dreadful conditions, ball-handling was poor. But they Munstered it out.

Worried about Scarlets tomorrow eve. They may catch us cold.

Rev, just teasin yer plonker mate. I bet it will be close at the RDS. That win will bring confidence with it. Great start man.

They did Gibbo but think they should be a bit worried they couldn't get a try against 14 men, whatever the conditions.

I'm just happy the rugby is back!

And aye we could Gibbo, but you beat us with a similar side last season. Your forwards stop our game and we could be in trouble. Plus there's our own stupidity to contend with

Well done, Treviso. OK, man advantage but good defense in really poor conditions. Ospreys discipline in the first half really cost them - that and Biggar leaving his kicking boots back in Swansea. And headless chicken impression in opponents' 22. Going to watch Ulster v Glasgow now.

Youse heading to Cardiff then, as per my previous suggestion?



Nice to get a 5 pointer under your belt first up though.

Just worked out what the "ooh my hat a woo" song Miss G keeps going on about is. Not Waterloo as I always thought, but "rumour has it" by Adelle.

You bet Hound. I loves Cardiff Dragons I do.

Gibbo, I think we are making changes next week, so we shall see. Different side away too. Never really perform.

That's very true Ace Reporter, they seemed clueless in attack and were all about passive defence. Must do better. But a win is a win and it will do them and their fans a power of good.

ha ace reporter I think not, lazy reporter more likes. Should have typed up 2 more articles today but was too sleepy.

You are right though, a win is the main thing, they'll be well happy with it.

Well Rev, now is the time to start performing to build on those 5 pts. Just go for it. We dont like it up us... Errm, we do actually. We're Ladyboys.

I know it was the HC last season, but the Os mullered Treviso in the game I saw on the box when I was in Rovigo.

Sounds like a good close game at Ravahill though.

Last night a friend offered me tickets for the athletics tonight, I decided I wasnt well enough to go and she sold them to another friend. I'm not really well enough, but would still love to be there.

Ah poor you Pete

Think you chose the right option for you but there has been some amazing races. Main thing is you get yourself better though.

+1 on the getting better bit.

Yer a stubborn kiwi feicer. Typical of the breed. No complaining, just get on with stuff.

Get well soon Kiwi.

Ah well...it's early doors yet. O's usually have rubbish starts to the season and they've gone on to win it. I've still got my ticket for the O's v Ulster next week. I just hope Ulster give me Tommy to coo at in case the rugby's crap from the O's.
