The Dew Drop Inn Virtual 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 only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the Tommy Bowe photo on the bar. That's a banning offence

So pull up a chair....what'll it be?

We don't have any Tescos here,but there might be a Tesco in Paris.

Gibbo - do you have Tescos in Clogland? I wouldn't be surprised if there was one there.

Mick - Me and my friends were chucked out of HMV on Oxford Street wrongly accused of letting off a stink bomb. Only cause we were pishing ourselves laughing about it

Sorry, roddersm, still can't agree with you - if Greece defaults, which it may if he current debt restructuring doesn't bear fruit, it might indirectly impact other European periphery countries like Ireland (perhaps that's what you mean?), but unlikely Germany and the core - in fact, arguably core Europe would be better off without Greece

Feckin Greeks! In fact the Core would be better off without Ireland & Portugal too. France, Germany, Denmark, Austria & Benelux. That's the ticket. We were grand before we started civilising and financing ye lot.

Happy days.

Cariadwr, it's called Albert Heijn - maybe more like a Sainsburys

TescoS or Waitrose in NL. Sheesh. How common.

And oddily enough, I worked for AH for the last 8 years. I made it to Chief Packing Coordinator.

Quite proud of it too. Ask me anything about shelve-space. I wont know the answers, but I'll know a man who does. This is a key attribute in finding your way to the Top, I find.

Mick,
That sounds like a brilliant job man. Real engineering, at the cutting-edge. You are young. Not too late.

Finished. One year down, two to go.

Yo. Swanny's got a posh-frock. Bhugger! Now I'll have to go and get one. Let's not clash.

What is Sharpey wearing? A sharp tin of fruit?

It will be great.

Also dying to see your 'Hood and to check out the local produce. Like beer.

Shouldnt you be doing a BBQ young man?!

Congrats Munsty. Nice feeling. Man, that year went quick.

MBTGOG wrote:Finished. One year down, two to go.

And go VERY quickly you'll find.

Good man, Munsty!

Nice one Munsty

25th June Penfro. Two weeks tomorrow! need to check my to do list... again!

SWANNY - Grand, hope Mr Sunshine hasn't turned down his invite

MUNSTY - I understand the young persons phrase to use of occasions such as these is 'Good work fella'. Enjoy the BBQ mucker and have a great break 8)

Penfro - now this is a good , one that I am going to blatantly steal! Thank you, we've ordered him a hat specially so he better play 8)

Munster - can't believe the time has gone sooo quickly! Glad it turned out to be as good as you'd hoped. Enjoy your summer

Hometime very shortly for me. Will try and pop in later.

Ah shoot, the game isn't on the Website for us in the UK. Will have to find a "friend" to watch it with.

MUNSTY - are you on about the Argentina v Wales U20 game ?

No the Ireland England game. You can't watch it live on the iRB website in the UK Ireland or New Zealand.

Munsty. Its on the IRB website pal. Open to ALL.

Cant wait to see those Ulster and Leinster bhoys beat England later.

What a crock! Since when have they started being selective over where you can and can't watch their matches?

Are sky and their NZ counterparts complaining that if people have the chance between a choppy, small screen internet feed and the match on satelite TV then they might choose the iRB website?

MBTGOG wrote:No the Ireland England game. You can't watch it live on the iRB website in the UK Ireland or New Zealand.

Presumably because Sky is showing it live in those countries.

I miss the SkyNZ Rugby Channel ...

Whaat? Why? That's mad!

Yep. Ah well, I'll wait to watch it on demand. I was only going to be in and out anyway to be honest.

I'll keep the Wales v Argentina game on though. Some exciting players in the Welsh side.

If any of you are over for the Summer Bash,Ulster are playing "down the road"in Bayonne on the 11th.

Gibbo,

You can still watch it over there.

From what I can see, the iRB site is showing Arg V Wales and Italy V NZ tonight, but nothing else.

A bad start and Enlgand look capable of hockeying us.

Wales outhalf prince scores a try!

7-0 to England. Ireland have barely had the ball, and when they have its been coughed up.

Just got home and it's 10-0!

Penalty England now, ugh, could be a looooong game...

Make that 13-0.

Paddy Jackson misses a penalty

13-0

Ireland with their first chance of points...and the peno's missed. Ireland need to keep hold of the ball to get ib this game.

Luke Marshall is more physically imposing than i thought, he's playing as a decent crash ball. Not a great tactic as the English defense can swallow him up but he's making a decent bit of ground.

Another kick missed, still 13-0

It's 0 - 17 in the Argentina v Wales game. Are these lads really under 20???

that wss a bad miss.

Thats what happens when you leave out Munster players

13-3!!

COME ON LADS, WE HAVE THEM ON THE ROPES!!!

Come on now boys!!!

So are we blaming the Ulster or Leinster lads?

Or that Welsh coach?

Argentina have just scored. 5 - 17 missed conversion.

I know M. Im watching Arg v Wales. Like watching TV. Good game. Arg just scored. Was 0-17. 5-17 @ 30 mins.

Yes, finally.

I've not decided yet Grey. If the forwards cost us it I'll blame Leinster. If its the backs I'll blame Ulster. If we lose a tight match I'll blame the ref

Sounds like Niall Annett is having a few problems? Just got in; thought this was on at 6.10
