Curse you pigface!

Posted yesterday, the secret behind Glasgow’s success

Declan Kidney fired – what odds on Hairyquims needing a new coach next season?

As long as we get someone who can bring a level of professionalism to the role, an ability to deal with the blazers in D4 and doesn’t have a provincial bias then I’ll be happy. If I had my choice Jake White would be good.

On another note; why are Irish players getting tax breaks for chasing an egg when the “Celtic Tiger” economy has been skinned and hung on a wall? Curious about what the status they have is,but too lazy to google it.

Ducky this explains it better than I can

Not sure where Ulster players fit into this though,

Thats a good article, some bugger with space hopper sized balls has obviously gone to the Government and explained to them why they should allow this, 40% tax on a 400k euro salary x 9 is a nice wee nest egg,no wonder they all stay home.

The wolf pack?

SUFTUM

Unless I’m mistaken, you haven’t beaten them yet. Unless I’ve missed something (again).

No trip to Dublin for the Shedheads.

@wrecker, not yet. 6.30 on Sat but it made me chuckle!

Enjoyed the Glaws game, thought Yachvilli was outstanding.

Heine Cup back this weekend, I can’t see past 4 home wins on current form.

Clermont v Montpelier 15:40 Sat
Saracens v Ulster 18:30 Sat
Harlequins v Munster 14:00 Sun
Toulon v Leicester 17:30 Sun

Lol blindmelon.
Anyone else hear howling????

I suppose I deserved that! Very disappointed with the performance, we were simply not accurate enough to beat a defence like Sarries. The scoreline flattered them a little as the first score should never have come from the line out which was an Ulster throw. The best team won however.

The only positive was the return of Tommy Bowe who looked sharp considering he’s been out 4 months. Off to find a wolf hunter!

My ex landlord (top bloke) was at the game as an Ulster fan-took a hammering did they? Trots off to Facebook to start the abuse 🙂

Meh just checked the score, I was presuming worse-Ulsters form has really gone to shit in the last couple of months!

Didn’t see that Munster performance coming? Even as a Munster fan. Clermont away in semis looks like a bridge too far though. Some seriously poor performances by Quins England players in front of Lions coach.

Top kicking performance from Le Jonny Weelkeensonne this evening.

Well done Munster indeed!! How did POC play?

What is this “Hennekin Cup” your talking about? Cant be very good if it has no welsh teams in it.

Thought you were quiet AA!

POC was man of the match, Gatland was at the game so good timing.

Powell off to Wigan RL at the end of the season.

Mongo think simple game good for simple people.
Would it be harsh to suggest the average IQ of both sports would increase?

😆

Mongo smash Mongo smash Mongo smash

Gutted, one of my very favourite players. One a the few decent players at Sale this year, he is inconsistent though. Maybe standing in a straight line, then running in a straight line will suit him better? Shoe in for the Welsh RL team I’d guess!

Hmm doesn’t seem like it’s a done deal. Wigan denying knowledge and a month back Mongo was saying that he wanted a new Sale contract.

Sunday, 2 games of Heineken rugby to watch after the Paris-Roubaix! Wooohoooo!

Checks teams – Munster, Quins, Leicester, Toulon. 4 teams I actively dislike. (Not sure why, but I’m being honest. And I really can’t stand Munster. :()

So a very conflicted Welshman ended supporting Quins and Leicester but being vaguely pleased when Toulon won. And sulked about Munster.

Why is rugby so confusing?

Oof he is a bit feather weight is Mike! Have we found out for certain if Mongo will be playing amongst a more level playing field IQ wise next year yet?

seems to be a done deal

Heading back over the bridge is he? 😀

more bad news for welsh rugby.

Don’t know why you think it is so bad. Gives youth a chance to come through and play with the big beasts gone. That increases the strength in depth. Yes they wont be released to play in the Autmn internationals but meh they don’t really mean anything.

As AW Jones said yesterday you learn not only through the experience of playing but also through playing and training alongside experienced pro’s. He got to see and play with the likes of Marshal or Collins etc. None of the welsh regions will be competitive in europe and the game is dying on its arse in Wales, no one wants to go to games to see youth being “developed” by having the shit kicked out of them on a weekly basis. The WRU are killing the game, pro rugby in wales will be dead in five years if nothing changes.

I am glad you put the blame on the WRU because I blame them as well. Don’t share your sense of pessimism though.

and reading that again I was suprised to see he’s only 26 😆 can only improve!

Sale scoring for fun tonight, Scarlets beating up Glasgow as well.

Not looking good, could be (yet another) loosing bonus point, then back home next week for a top 6 clincher against Sorries.

You were saying Scamper? 😆

SAYULL!!!!!!
