Rugby - 2012 6 Nations Championship

[pharvey]

I liked the new God`s Own squad announced by Lancaster this week. Most of the new players perform for their clubs week in week out so I hope they can do it at international level. Keep the Celts in their place I say.

It's all good, and a forward step for Beelzebub and his clan - still, the men in red will take you to the cleaners........ we'll try to be gentle.

I'm reporting that photo to the RSPCA, animal cruelty of the highest order

He's Welsh through and through...... aside from Chinese parents and being born in China.....

Be as there are welsh supporters on this thread I feel this notice is essential.

Oh, that's just harsh......... fair, but harsh.

If you win I will buy you a pint.

A pint of what, hemlock? Pete

[Arcadian]

25% of the new God`s squad come from Northampton who trounced the Scarlets on Saturday, is this an omen?

[pharvey]

Well, I think the other 75% are foreigners........ so I guess no is the answer!!

Now, If I followed the example of a well-known supporter of a Merseyside football team I would produce statistical evidence that that is not true Pharvey. So what is your prediction for the most awaited game in the six nations. (No not Italy v Scotland)

[pharvey]

^^ Beelzebub's XV to lose, the Welsh Wonders to be victorious throughout....

Anyways, giving this thread a bounce as it's only just over a week from the kick-off. If you haven't signed up to the HHAD League already, please do - details on previous page.

For further info. on the 6N Tournament, have a look at http://www.planet-rugby.com or http://www.rbs6nations.com/en/home.php all good for news, updates and general info.

Best of luck to all - can't wait!!

Oh..... and don't get excited by who's holding the trophy BB - ain't going to happen this year!!

[Big Boy]

Not knowing how long I'd be in hospital, I've made most of my predictions already - I think the right person is holding that trophy.

[pharvey]

One place to the left, and you'd be on the button BB . Glad to hear the op was a success, but you're not going to have much joy or happiness this 6N....... The Paddies will do well I feel, Wales have too many key players out (although, not enough to worry against your lot).

Safe travels to Thailand/HH, and sort out where we can watch rugby - I'd love to catch up on my next visit!!

Getting the excuses in early I see Pharvey

Many years ago my cousin in North London had a boyfriend who was a big football fan (well a Spurs fan anyway). A goup of them were in a pub when he was introduced to a Welshman.
"Well `Arry" he said,"do you follow football?"
"Not really" said `Arry.
So he lost interest in speaking to said Welshman again. It turned out that `Arry was actually Barry, Barry John no less. Probably the best number 10 ever produced by the home nations.
