WALES JUNE TOUR: SA IN DC, ARGENTINA
-
@mikethesnow One of the weirdest, idiotic things I've seen in a test match. The whole thing so bizarre I was laughing.
Sort of thing that both players will chuckle about over a beer together for years to come
-
My welsh mate envisages the following between Paul (his dad) and him:
"Look son, if you're going to get sent off it had better be worth it. Enough of this choking shit, you've got to get into headbuts and broken limbs. Think Swansea on a Friday night..."

My wife is from that area - headbuts and broken limbs are run of the mill at my place. She's not quite as bad now that she has left, I haven't had an HIA for weeks now and she went off strangling me as it took too long. Welsh girls are impatient.

That's alpha as fuck. He's just holding that little shit whispering sweet death in his ear. Give him a week for not listening, and a parade for doing to a gobby little shit what we have all wanted to do.

I'm well up for a good old moan about the Welsh after my weekend.
A dad at my school, I think he goes by the name Rhys, but I'm going to refer to him as the bigoted blinded welsh fluffybunny, or BBWC in abbreviation form, decided to take me to task in front of all other Dads at a dinner on Friday night. I've known this guy for a while, and decided a long time ago that he made batshit look interesting, and I'd rather read the UK rugby brigade on twitter than chat to this chap about anything. To give more context, the BBWC is an accountant at an insurance firm - you all know the type.
Anywho, I've always been confused, as him and his wife are really tight with this SA couple who I thoroughly enjoy. So I'm sitting there with a beer, and I'm talking about the Beast and his 100 games with the SA fella (the SA fella was laughing, as the said the Beast has never had any right to actually play for SA), it's all good fun. Anyway, the BBWC comes from 4 tables over to unload on me - some quotes "They should NOT be called the New Zealand All Blacks, as they do not represent New Zealand - they are a lions team with barely any NZ representation".
Say What?
So I ask him if he's been to NZ ... at which point he aggressively says "yes, why" ... and I asked him what he saw in the way of people .. "why is that relevant, yes there are islanders there but none of them are from there" ... at this point I turn away and the SA fella asks " ... well?" and I say "I've heard some shit in time, but I can't even begin to discuss this" at which point the table sort of laughts ... and then fuck me days does the BBWC lose his shit!!
I'm talking BOD, I'm talking the line out in 81, I'm talking continual cheating by the Poly All Blacks, I'm literally talking every single line of anti AB's bias ever written up here thrown in my face, like I'm sort of media representation of AB rugby. It was unreal!
I just ended up saying "it's cool man, your welcome to your opinions, regardless of how blinkered and full of shit they are, I don't really have the inclincation to even bother talking to you about anything honestly - maybe just try and cheer up a bit".
Fuck Wales, and Fuck the Welsh rugby team. Long may they continue to be shit.
-
@MajorRage No way you have to put up with that shit. Put him in a chokehold next time.

One bad Arwel doesn't spoil the barrel
-
@mikethesnow I'm following the same logical conclusion as the BBWC!
-
@mariner4life Peyper was quite clear that the red was for more for ignoring the Assistant ref 3 times than the throat hold itself. Think he just needs a stern warning as to future behaviour rather than a ban.
I just found the whole incident darkly comic - spat out a glass of decent Pinot,
Gatland will be pleased with the tour though. Wales played well and the newer boys did good.
-
Farking hell.What a twat.
Worked in South Wales, seen many a test match there and had more than a few after match beers and never been made to feel anything less than extremely welcome.
Perhaps your BBWC prick was from North Wales?
-
@victor-meldrew His wife is a huge Scarlet's supporter - more so than Wales she said. Ironically, she's actually really nice.
I'm not entirely truthful about my feelings for Wales above. Although around 10pm on Friday night, that probably would have been my view if asked!
-
Soon learned there's quite a big Nth-Sth Wales divide. Once went up to Aberystwyth on business and stayed at a country inn.
The prick behind the bar refused to speak English and my welsh-speaking mate (also a Scarlet's man) let him have both barrels.
I learned the meaning of mewnbred that night...

Yep.
Yep. Menacing.
Yep. Things are slowly falling into place re fitness, skills, discipline, depth, game management, playing what's in front of you

Moriarty gets a month

3 weeks for the neck hold and one week for ignoring the match officials
One week for ignoring the officials seems fair but 3 weeks for the neck bit seems a bit harsh TBH.
