Anyone enjoying the rugby or AIBU?

[dancerchancer]

I was looking forward to X factor. What's all this rugby malarkey?

Gordon D'Arcy once wished me a happy new year.

Capri

I just perve from a view in the stadium!

Capri what the fuck is wrong with you?! Did he invite you?

Granted he's a bit dull but even still!

I wanted France to win that. My plan had been France knock out New Zealand. Then Ireland manage get to final and don't need to face New Zealand as I have a sneaking feeling Ireland would stand a chance against them so highly unlikely that the Ireland men would manage their first ever win over them!!

Shall have to rethink my cunning plan now.

NO or WB for final referee I hope. Though I suppose NO would be safest.

Capri have a stern word with yourself.

Capri I'm not sure it's possibly to understand what's wrong with you.

Shall not deny though that the scene where I did the sensible thing isn't passing through my mind!!

Dont DD meet Ritchie McCaw, Israel Dagg and Perry Weepu back in 2010 at the swimming pool in Dunedin, I have never been so jealous in all my life.

Rugby is really community involved here, they hold lots of training sessions for kids, visit local schools, help with community projects, so it's not unusual to see them about. And there is a nice coffee place opposite Richie McCaw ' s training ground he may frequent (I now sound like a stalker... )

snoop my DC are kiwis but I'm from the UK originally so I understand :) I spent many a day at Leicester watching Martin Johnson et al playing!

Looking forward to the next match!

Zut alors, the French fans aren't giving the French coach a ummm, warm reception exactly.

It's given me a life long regret.
I can stare wistfully off into middle distance and say 'I once failed to get into a jacuzzi with Johnnie Wilkinson' to my grandchildren

Privately I remain ashamed.
Oh dear god, the body

I feel sorry for my English DH being married to a smug kiwi who totally took the piss when they lost to Australia

Rugby is better than X Factor any day of the week. Besides watching Dan Carter..mmm, I remember him doing the jockey ads back in NZ lol.

I still can't explain it. I panicked.

The 'what ifs ' will haunt me. I expect he was waiting for a middle aged mother of three.

Sod X factor, this has all been brilliant and I'm going to soooo miss it

One thing I won't miss is Paloma bloody Faith's strangulated warbling!

I don't think Dan Carter is ageing well

Oh me neither anenome. It is bloody annoying.

Hate it.

I want corrie and X Factor on like normal please!

I'd say Jonny lies awake at night filled will sadness - punching the pillow whilst saying "why didn't she get in. WHHHHHHHY!!"

Palma Faith has been laid on as compensation for those missing X Factor.

What is not to love about drooling over the slow mo replays of all those lovely muscly thighs watching 30 blokes knock each other around a rugby pitch? I sort of watched the X Factor last week, it was unbelievably boring. I found the contestants either average or a bit weird.

I love Nigel Owens as well, it's so funny hearing him tell off all these huge blokes and they just accept it

YABVVVVU.

I was proposed to by Andrew Mehrtens once. I turned him down because "my A Levels are too important to move to the other side of the world" and then I fucked them up anyway

I love Nigel. The best refing though is when he refs the pro12. He knows who speaks Welsh and tells them off in Welsh. I really love that!

I'll watch games where I don't care who wins just to watch and listen to Nigel controlling and scolding the players. He is marvellous. DS told me this evening that if I was a gay man I'd marry Nigel, hahaha.

YABU. Rugby was on TV tonight at that time because that was when the match was being played. I don't particularly like Rugby but quarter final match of the Rugby World Cup is much more important than Xfactor. Xfactor can be moved but.the Rugby can't

This made me laugh!

I appreciate a lot of people will like rugby but is it not a minority sport,

No it certainly isn't.

I don't think Barnes will ref the final as he did the last one.
