Day before International weekend - excited?

Hmmm as much as Italy and Wales will be interesting this weekend it’s the other 2 games which are the humdingers. Both very very interesting.

Ireland Scotland matches are traditionally brilliant or shit. Although Scotland
won the world cup warm up it is the small handed travelling folk that have had
the results snagging 8 out of the last 10 encounters. It’s at home for Ireland
and after defeat by the Welsh they won’t want to put another L in the home box
(coach speak – you won’t understand). With the 2 big O’s out there may be a
jangling of nerves but they have the other Owe and that’s Tommy Bowe who’s been
scoring for fun.( I still think I should have had an assist from Rougerie for
my fantasy rugby team in last weeks game). However Scotland deserve a win and by
jiminy (or should I say Jimmy) I don’t want it to be against the Italians.
Robinson has to get a result soon – I hear that some players are coming out in
support of him and if this was kissball that would mean that he was on his way
out….but then again if it was kissball he wouldn’t give a fuck because he would
be given a gazillion pound pay off to leave a team that he didn’t even give a
toss about to coach another team he doesn’t care about. The result between Scotland and France
and then France and Ireland means that this should be close and a good one.

Scottish people to watch

Stuart Hogg – from zero to well not bad as yet – loads of
potential and lots of threat – great stuff

Irish people to watch – all of them, the moment your backs
turned, all of the lead on your roof will be gone and they’ll be challenging
your auntie June to fight them for a pound.

All of them and especially Tommy Bowe and Rory Best

Sundays game (and did you notice I didn’t mention anything about soul destroyingly shit Sunday rugby then?) is also going to be great. If this game had been before the Welsh game I would have forseen the French taking a 35 minute break in the middle of the first half to have some shit hard bread sandwiches with jambon and fromage and an opportunity to smoke 10 Gallois each
and still go on and beat the imperial pigdogs by 27 points. But it isn’t and they won’t. This is a different English side who were unlucky to lose and very unlucky not to draw against the Welsh. Farrell was terrific and I thought Botha was all over the field. The French were absolutely village against the Scottish and Irish but still got some results. They have dropped Trinh-Duc and Parra and brought in Dupuy and the bloke who looks like an eastern European pimp cum money lender Beauxis whose drop goal performance last week has seen his early induction into the Arthur Emyr Drop goal Hall of fame. Either Sant-Andre is a genius or he is underestimating the English. I thought Rougerie was shit last week and I am seriously pissed off with Fofana, not because of anything he has done, its just he is not in my ESPN fantasy rugby team. Two teams face each
other on Sunday who have both played beneath themselves for most of the tournament, who is going to pull their fingers out of their arse and get it on like donkey kong?

English people to watch out for

Tuilagi – he is the person who can create holes in the defence especially whilst Foden and Ashton seemed to have taken some performance disabling drugs

Bobby Davro – now that we’ve lost a giant like Frankie Carson who else can we depend upon for comic ingeniouity (half back partnership with Gary Wilmott could be the Lions pairing of fun)

French people to watch out for

Fofana already mentioned – seems to get into good positions – an eye for a try

Pepe le Puw
Dresses in black and white, doesn’t take no for an answer from women and smells – could be any of them…..(except for Sophie Marceau who
is cowing lush)

Wales Italy should be a good game, I think that Italy raise their game against the Welsh but to show some sort of maturity this Welsh side has to be up for this game and they have to put them away early. The Italians will be out to stop them, there has been some shit games for them this year but as I have said this is season 1 for them under their new coach – lets hope they
kick on before Parisse is forced to retire after carrying a side for so long. So
the penultimate weekend is here, plenty to play for as Wales France and England
are still in the mix…..

Welsh people to watch out for

Jonathan Davies – no not the commentator but the Scarlets
centre – he can find and line and gap and his try assist count will go through
the roof

Fenella the Witch

Younger viewers look away now because 1. you will shit
yourself and 2. you wont have a clue what I am talking about. Fenella was the
baddy from Chorlton and the Wheelies and used to whizz around like someone…well
someone on whizz. Petrifying and more than a match for an Italian back line.
Above: Look her! She is fucking terrifying!!
Italians to watch out for

You don’t really have to watch out for them you can hear
them coming. Talking…sorry shouting at each other like 2 old people from
Mountain Ash on a very loud bus.

Parisse – yawn but true – class class class and smart missus

couldn't be arsed reading most of this as you seemd to hav efallen asleep on the space bar for most of it but Pepe le Pew's name leapt out at me.

If I was a betting man, my guess is that he will endeavour to hump a black cat that has somehow conspired to have a white stripe painted down its back.
