Its been a while since they have seen a tutu in the Castle Brendan - watch out - those Irish builders have strong hands, not the sensitive types. Your plea to "be gentle" may fall on deaf ears.

Well it intimidated the Welsh enough 2 years ago to for them to order the AB's to perform the Haka behind closed doors in the changing rooms! If you look at it 40 years ago it was a bit of a dance - its changed over time and designed to be intimidating now. Its an advantage, no doubt. Not happy about this Saturday though - was hoping to see the Irish beat the Safa's again on tv, but have to go to visit friends of the missus. I'll record it. But Brendan I don't want to see you crying as I drive home up Lordship Lane, as that will give away the result. Keep your chin up whatever happens.

Meat is murder - save the vegetarians - hang everyone else.

I have to say that watching it on tv I thought he lost but this photo looks like he just won - very close though. http://images.racingpost.com/2009/Nov/12152.jpg

You're right Matt - you did not mention football - must be just that you a re football mad that made me think you were getting at footie being better than rugby But having said that the thread is Rugby v Football after all so whether you mentioned it or not, its all relevant. I guess.

Amd anyway if it goes well, she should be prepared for the future - Friday nights in the Gowlett eating pizza by the bar, watching her new boyfriend playing pool. Should work a treat. I always think the less time spent talking to each other the better these relationships prosper.

looks around for the bunnymen.....

Ummm - who has Defoe in FF? (Not me).

Matthew - we all recognise that rugby players cheat on occaision. There are two differences 1) the rugby fans of all teams get on well together - its entertainment, to watch and discuss. 2) when rugby players cheat or use exceesive violence, there is immediate action by the national and world governing bodies and players are cited and banned. Unlike football where they say, the referee did not see it, therefore everythings honky dory, cheat as much as you like. Hence your reference to Dean Richards simply shows that rugby deals with these issues better than football. On the Haka. I'm not sure I agree that the All Blacks should be allowed free space to intimidate their opponents. They have milked that bit of psycological superiority for long enough.

Stop Rafa bashing. I don't like to see Liverpool fans bashing Rafa.

If its rough and tough on the field its ok Matt - the point is the sporting attitiude of rugby fans being called into question.

As he hands you the first onion shout: 'Hand off Frog - these are stolen onions - you are tierry, the thief of st denis' He'll see the funny side im sure.

My wife and I are playing the name game at the moment. Shes expecting and its a boy. I'm keen on Rory. She has asked for a shortlist of > 1 name. This means she is not keen on Rory (see how I deduced that..).

Well, Wolf. I have never fancied my sister. She was a right bossy cow. I guess though if I just met her now I would not know she had been a right bossy cow for 30 years....

Hull's penalty for the 3rd goal was an absolute joke decision. When will referees begin to understand that in giving a penalty, they are giving a goal... and you don't give a goal for two players bumping into each other on the edge of the box, neither of them even in possession of the ball.

Oh dear. This could get messy.

Just watched the biopic "Enid" on BBC4. She has a blue plaque opposite the Plough - does anyone know how long she lived in Dulwich or what she did when she lived here? She died in 1968 aged 71.

I saw that and thought it strange too Declan. Booing is not the norm on kicks.

It's his sister DM. I don't think he'll be going there....

Yeah - why did they ask you...Is it well known that you are a great (or crap) cook Heidi? I watch it every time I see its on and even have the book...I think it hilarious most of the time and yes the voiceover guy is very funny. I especially liked the Roy ("the Legend") Walker episode recently with Les ("Don't call me Les") Battersby. It was fantastic. Anyone else see that one? Someone once told me I looked like Roy Walker.......not sure that's good (or true).

You have not said if you are a girl or a bloke. If you are a girl I'd second Green and Blue - intimate and quiet. If you are a bloke I'd suggest the Gowlett, If it's not going well just buy her a pizza and put your name down for pool.

If BBW was still on here he'd probably say this was Mikecg. He was always good at spotting him.
