Moving on then. I don’t expect the pumas to be more than a speed bump on the way to the title this weekend. If they win I will stick a pineapple up my butt
I don't think I've ever wanted a specific result of a rugby game that I have no investment in ever before.
But your butt is safe IMO.
I was hoping for a bok revenge match. A cold clinical dismantling of the RGs. But now I think I want a repeat of last weekend with the result reversed.
@W32 sweating every knock on and defensive lapse. His buddies wondering why he keeps looking over at the fruit bowl. Everyone a little embarrassed as he weeps joyfully when Pollard slots the last second penalty. The strangely erotic way he takes a knife to that damn pineapple right on the final whistle. My god… is he? He can’t be… he bloody well is [censored] the smile right off that smug pineapple’s face.

I’m going with obliteration.

@W32 very wise. Can’t imagine facing that pineapple sober
Won't need to worry about facing it.

Sure it's test rugby, but nobody wants to have that pineapple on their conscience.
that's a strange euphemism for hairy back passage.
