  1. I don't know why you refer to sour grapes Pibe. Where? If it were from me, my comment about you being Spanish was tongue in cheek. As for today I wouldn't blame Ireland losing on goalkicking. Paddy Jackson doesn't even kick for Ulster. It was his first test so no big deal. Marshall looked really good in the centre. It's about time Ireland gave younger players a chance. ROG was great in his time but I suspect that kick of his in the 22 was something he might have tried on playstation if there was a rugby game. Madigan from Leinster should have been included in the 22. I suspect that was ROG's last game for Ireland. As for stats, they indicate the crucial areas of the game. Normally the winning team will have the best stats. The championship is now between England and Wales IMO. It will come down to point difference as Wales will probably beat England in Cardiff. I suspect England will win the championship though.
  2. I'm not sure what you mean Lady D. If it was ok to use that particular picture, which is likely to be of a train in India, and is a common way to travel there, is not his comment an attempt at being funny?
  3. I think you are being a bit too sensitive mashcov.
  4. After two out three matches, he who complaineth so much about the handicap imposed, has moved right up the table. RD also scored the only exact score bonus though there were several near misses. Mick is a good bet for the Masters.
  5. So said the Spaniard! All I am saying is if France had continued to play the exciting brand of rugby they started with and England didn't get that lucky try, the result could have been different. England were certainly not 'hard and shoulders' (sic) above Ireland when they played. England's game plan as Mick alluded to was perfect for the wet conditions that day. http://www.rbs6nations.com/en/matchcentre/7991.php?section=stats&fixid=153769 Have a look at the stats from that game. Ireland's represent what you would normally expect to see from a team who had won. Wonder if OF will get cited for that off the ball incident?
  6. Do you think getting past an 'A' is a problem for the club? e.g Arsene
  7. I think France pressed the self destruct button too early. England got lucky with a try and France took off their best players.
  8. Not sure Mick Mac is so far out given the pattern of away wins is 1 then 2 and now 3.......maybe! Italy 20 Wales 20 England 22 France 24 Scotland 19 Ireland 24 Now it just ????'s and Gingerbeer to share their gut feeling's.

  10. So to confirm the fixtures: Saturday Italy v Wales 14.30 England v France 17.00 Sunday Scotland v Ireland 14.00
  11. Not to maxxi. Besides there are only 5 rounds and one of the rules was you must enter all 5. Given the additional entries I asked for comments as to what amendment to the rules might be suitable, and none was forthcoming. Besides there are so many potential points to be won/lost, -40 isn't huge. Also it continues to apply for other non entries.
  12. I haven't seen them.
  13. I regularly get Spanish JW's at the door. It's very relevant as they know my wife is Spanish and white as are they. They pick on people they may have something else in common with. *Bob* is probably black and they know it.
  14. Answer the phone?

Wouldn't be fair for late starters to begin with a better score than he.
  16. This explains the discomfort with using the left ear. Only 'cause I know you are interested. The Learning Ear Did you know that your right ear has a different job to do than your left ear? Did you know that we all have a dominant ear? Did you know that it makes a hell of a difference whether your right or left ear is your dominant ear? Tomatis discovered that people who are right ear dominant learn much more easily than those who are left ear dominant. In hindsight, that is quite logical. The right ear is directly connected to the left brain, the brain that processes language. That is a direct, fast connection. If you listen with your left ear, the sounds first go to the right brain. That part of the brain has no language center and, therefore, the information has to be rerouted to the left brain via the Corpus Callosum. Because that?s a longer pathway, the information is delayed. Left-ear-dominant people thus have to play catch-up all the time. Not only is the information late, it is also incomplete. In the transfer from the right brain to the left brain, some of the higher frequencies are lost. As we have seen before, these are the frequencies that are key to distinguish similar sounds (like a B and a P). Left-ear-dominant people thus not only have to play catch-up, they also have to play with an incomplete deck.T
  17. Thanks for that *Bob*. I thought maybe it was because I only have half a brain.

    Ear Ear

    Having a minor blockage in my right ear which I use for telephone calls I tried using my left ear so I could hear better. It worked but it felt really uncomfortable. I'm left handed, which from what I read suggests using my right ear is normal. But why the hell does using the other ear feel weird? It's like you can hear but can't process the details of the conversation. Any facts out there I should know about?
  19. How can you love someone you've never met Woody?
  20. My comment SJ was to suggest that as j.e.n seems to use that section to run a business, maybe it was against forum rules and he had been blocked from using it. I was a bit vague I'll admit.
  21. Millwall one, last night.
  22. How is the Cup going Red? With one game left it would be good to know who is in danger and who has made the last 8.
  23. I thought my post was helpful too in that it might have been true!
  24. Perhaps you have been blacklisted?
