DD, I assume you have the 30th of October marked in your diary with a big red crayon scrawl?

USA v Cook Islands at Memorial Park. 2000hrs.

A real clash of run and wriggle titans there! Good to see them playing the game in a place where there are bound to be masses of RL fans, Merkins and Cook Islanders to really fill the ground!

Erm. Akshewally.

Spreys v Dregs on BBC2 red button now.

Biggar starting at 15. Interesting….

Ford is having a shocker. Come on gold, let’s see what Henson can do at 10!!!

Big home win for Ulster against the Blues. Starting to hit form now at long last.

SUFTUM

just a quick heads up for all you rah rah’s…………Proper rugby world cup starts tomorrow.

8)

I know.

The nation is gripped. 😆

Ton even as a league fan you muat think the concept of a world cup with only three teams made up of players who are any good is more than a little underwhelming.

The game needs to grow,but how to do that when even the core fans stay away i have no idea.
Sale play at the same stadium and even they attract more people than the above mentioned International game.

Wow that’s a turn up, where wil he go now?

With the Spreys having lost Fatouali’i…..?

Even though Tibaldi is playing very well, mind you.

How long are refs meant to play advantage for? Seems utterly random at times.

Its almost like the last world cup for england didnt happen, or Care or Prince Tindal or no end of Aussies or all bllacks pulled out of bars prior to world cup semi finals… I think the problem may go a little beyond just the welsh…….

My hero!
Is he playing in the ground shagging world cup?

To be fired for being drunk in France is quite an achievement !

I don’t keep a cross referenced database like some a_a and I’m not trawling through the rugby threads to find a quote. I remember you calling an English player a useless turk….is that a racial slur? I have no idea what it means.

If you thinking me making a glib remark about Welsh drunkenness with reference to the rugby team is a racial slur then you are either stupid or being deliberately obtuse….I don’t think that you are the former.

Fat useless Turk actually and the fact you have no idea what that means speaks volumes.
I would also imagine you can/should be able to see the difference between talking about “daft welsh drunkenness” and commenting on an individual rugby player who is english.

STOP!

I’m off. Sorry for the bickering gents.

Wales will get thumped first up, limp through a couple poor performances against lesser teams before ending with a close lose to Australia, same as every year really.

RE Care at 9 – Can I just say how glad I am that he seems to have sorted out his inner demons and has got back to playing some great rugby!

RE Wales. Pretty much as AA says.
