That's marketing for you. It's definitely not a premium product in many places. It also gives its name to unsolicited emails as a result of a comedy sketch by Monty Python.

Did Americans not enjoy Spinal Tap? Too subtle maybe? Brilliant film.

Why stop at five? North Wales has a ring to it.

Maybe this explains some of it. I think Lowe has been particularly poor.

Isn't being a few percent off pretty acceptable given their season together is really only starting? Maybe they'll finally peak when the big matches come along. I'm fed up with them losing finals.

On the other hand if they were to say it was memorable and it was a classic, the casual observer might decide that if that's as good as it gets, I won't watch again.

Not sure they blew chances. Maybe there were some poor passes. Lots of credit to Leicester's defence though.

Well as Leicester got 2 lucky tries in the first half, the scoreline suggests it was closer than it actually was.

Apparently the Atlanta stadium is air conditioned and lots of evening ko's too. They won't call them ad breaks though.

Yeah, that was diabolical. It's difficult for the ref to judge but the TMO? Regardless of that, how does Connacht explain getting into that position in the first place?

You'd have thought they'd have known what was achievable with the kick. Very frustrating 2nd half to watch if you're supporting Connacht.

That's just annoying. So one sided in the first half. Should have had a bonus point by half time.

I'm just listening. I'd bet Munster will be closer than 21 at the end.

Not long enough to sign SH talent as you probably know 😜
Should Wales and Scotland merge to increase your joint chances? Scoles or Watland? Which do you prefer?

Indeed. But that only occurred as we failed to get an agreement that we get a bye to the semi's. The motion that 8 failed quarters equals one semi final bye was outvoted for some reason.

It's not really. That's just something the SA's made up because for some reason they're jealous of us.
I quite like the prospect of France v Japan being very entertaining. I'd also like to see if the Georgian pack can give SA something to think about.

Understandable. I refuse to go to Lansdowne since it was renamed something or other.

Ah come on, you don't have any Leinster supporting pals. Do you have any pals whatsoever? I have my doubts. Perhaps your shrink, if you believe him or her.
