The Rugby Thread (Part 1)

I’m not so sure. I’m not convinced by that Herring chap as hooker.
There’s something fishy about him.

Here we go :grimacing:

I’ll miss the game again today but i presume Ireland will walk it?

Herring is rotten under pressure. Very bad to be missing, Kelleher, Sheehan and Gibson Park. France are great value today I think.

They are 4/9 but I think France have a great shot at it.

This may have been mentioned already but I looked at the betting odds there for today and Wales are 11/4 to beat Scotland? Must be a long time since they were that kind of underdog (or even any kind of underdog) versus the Scots. Obviously a good reason for this @gilgamboa ?

Never take a herring for a cod, mo chara.

You are always going to carry a few lemons. He’s 3rd choice.

Great advice from your lofty perch……

Very sad news. One of the funniest, nicest men you could ever meet and a damn fine sportsman. This is tough to take.

Most talented all round sportsman I had the pleasure of playing with. Rest in peace my pal, we’l sing a few verses of We are the Greeners for you.

Played rugby to a high level but also a very fine soccer and GAA player.

Heart attack I heard? Was a school buddy of my brother in law.

Yeah heart attack it seems.

Ah Christ, that’s desperate.
