Right wing head banger melting down on a Thursday morning.
What’s new.
Unexpectedly heading to this tomorrow night. I think it should be a cracking game. Argentina play a lovely brand of rugby now and wins this year over SA and NZ will mean they’re coming here confident. On the other hand this Irish team will be intent on proving that last week was a bump and not a trend - both collectively and individually. A lot of players need to deliver big games. Hopefully sparks a great contest.
Did I read somewhere Argentina have never won in Dublin ?
That Juan Martin gonzalez is some player.
There has been a couple of wonderful Juan Martin named rugby players for Argentina.
I’m also going. How many pints am I supposed to drink per half?
How many do you feel like?
It’ll depend on the game. I wouldn’t be a big drinker during sporting events.
Listening to the radio talking about the line out the other night, I wonder is that why POM is still being kept around.
Yeah - I tend to bring one in at the start and that’s about it. Half time is too tight time wise as much as anything.
Lineout is def one of POMs plus points so there’s prob something in that
Harsh on Aki to be the only change here. Ringrose didn’t do anything special the other night.
Bench still wouldn’t inspire confidence.
Bit of a comedown being offered the corporate tickets for the Argentina game only and on top of that being offered them the day before the match.

Reminds me of when one of my Cark first cousins got married years ago. All the fellow Cark cousins got the invite straight away & us poor unfortunate relations (literally) in Wexford didn’t know invites had been issued until it was mentioned by someone on text or something. Then there was a second round of invites after initial declines when some of us belatedly got the nod & even a final sweep up round where the dregs (@tallback equivalents) got the offer too.

Nothing worse than a late invite. All hotel rooms gone, stuck in a cunting B&B or another hotel down the road.
No invite is better again. 
Ah fuck it, as I’ve said before, I’ll take any excuse for a piss up with friends and family these days. Myself and a few cousins were only saying, if it wasn’t for funerals of aunts or uncles sadly, we’d never see each other. Life is busy. Too busy.
As it happens I got a text just after 5pm offering me free tickets to the football tonight but my wisdom tooth is too sore to be sitting outside in the night air. Plus I don’t want to be anyone’s afterthought.

Will it be a “shock” if Ireland are baten. They are the underdogs surely against Argentina ?
The goys are 12 point favourites
Bernard “Birch” Jackman thinks it’s a 50:50 game
A good clatter of them were on downtime yesterday presumably and took up residence outside a small coffee shop on Drury Street. Doris is some unit, Mack Hansen not so much😀 On the basis that they wouldn’t get off the footpath and forced everyone else into the middle of (an admittedly pedestrianised road) I hope the Argies kick the shite out of them tonight.

Joke shop stuff. I hope the Argies batter them.
