The Dew Drop Inn Virtual La Botticella Pub, Rome.

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 historical city of Rome, the owner Giiovanni, is a Canadian-Italian, and welcomes all after a great day of rugby.

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no tampering with the pictures of Tawera Kerr-Barlow, Dane Coles, Aaron Jarvis, Samson Lee and Schalk Brits up on the wall. Erm, actually there is a second rule. No elephants, unless they're Effervescing - we can't be barring a Chiefs fan

The Stag giveth, and the Stag taketh away...

Thats perfect MrsP. The trip is free; you just have to pay the Ulster Tax.

Lucky - the old show and go. Keith Earls style!

He wouldn't do that Lucky.

You wouldn't be so mean as to invite us and then renege on us, would you Stag?

GUIDE

Spending money?

Excellent idea!!!

Good stuff. Once this "Ulster Tax" is sorted out you'll be good to go.

Just to clarify...

The game in Hong Kong is included I presume???

Need to decide how much of their money to convert to HKDollars.

I'll Hong Kong you now in a minute. . . .

Kingsholm is good. We have a fairly good bit of banter with Glaws too when we try to out sing the shed.

The only grounds I want to do are Saints, Exeter, Bath (next week), CAP (next month), Ravers and RDS. Munster in Thomond does appeal, but we probably won't be there for a while again.

Maybe Wuss too.

Hello pubblies.

I don’t really have a ‘favourite’ set of fans. However, at The Stoop a certain element of the Quins support is downright obnoxious when they play Wasps (sorry CJ). I swear they have been transported from Stamford Bridge.

On yer Munster fan with his “He’s been at it all day” comment, Wasps fans came up with their own version of a well used phrase in Mogliano.

“Tutti tempo, Arbitro!!”

Really Hound? You rarely hear about that type of thing.

It sounds like you had a cracking trip out there, Hound.

RDS is a good ground to visit right enough, but Thomond was downright special. Though when I was there we had the largest contingent of travelling fans Thomnd had seen! That might have something to do with it.

Haven't been to any rugby grounds in England bar Twickenham so thats what I would like to do next.

Worst ground I've visited was Murrayfield to watch Edinburgh in the Pro12. Depressing.

Os v Leinster sides are out. Goodman starts in the centre for us.

No Michael Bent- Declan Fitzpatricks latest injury is a concussion so he's a doubt.

Is anybody having a similar problem, where you get redirected to some questionable sites from this one? It's happening on my laptop, without me clicking on anything. I don't have such issues from my iPhone.

That's Hoog hacking into your laptop

Happy mcfriday kids! Match time in 90 mins and I've taken the grown up decision to foresake the beer tonight.


Have started a bottle of white vino instead.

Rev, that happened to me earlier. When I say 'questionable, it was asking me to give my email address in order to win some prize.

Woo hoo. Out of work and miraculously delivered to the pub.


Stag - I've left the Stoop at half time the last two times I've been, shaking my head in disbelief at some of the stuff I've heard at a rugby match.

We are known as 'the Pests' throughout the land (mainly for pinching the title without topping the table ), but we don't deserve the stuff some Quins fans hurl at us.

Anyway, Ealing tomorrow. Good natured and entertaining fun.

Evening all.

Me too on the prize winning thing appearing. Thing is, I must be the luckiest person around because I have been the 100,000th or 10,000th or something person to visit this site the last 3 times I have logged on!

What are the chances of that happening eh?

100,000 to 1.

I say questionable, as my Anti Virus flashed up a warning on the one I got.

I'll have a look, those sorts of ads are not supposed to be included (Google ads lets us opt out of those sorts of things.) Worst ad I've noticed (note, I'm really good at not noticing ads) today is a Zoosk dating one.

Kiwi,

This is a thing that appears in the whole screen, not just a wee add at the top.

Hound!



I think Kiwi and Bikkies will both be itching to tell you just how many ways that is the wrong answer!!!!

That is odd. Are you (or Rev) getting that off other sites?

And as far as the 1:100000 thing goes, I think the observed odds are 1:1

I know not whence it comes Kiwi.

It has appeared just as I log on yesterday and today and would try to imply that I was the 100,000th or whatever person to log on today. I have just clicked the "back" button each time so I don't know where it takes you if you click to find out what you have won.

2 Mod Heros. One on his guitar and the other on his bike. The same kind of characters, with the same kind of experiences, in different fields.

Willser, stop turning me on young man.

Sorry to hear that, comes with yhe territory of some of the fan base, quite public school area, of those some are bound to be people who toss things

Are you at Ravenhill WillyG or are you just standing outside to watch the match?

True CJ. We saw that side of certain Leinster bandwagon fans in London. Disgusted me. I wanted to rip the jerseys off them.
