i see what you mean. Hi there, i see you are training hard for the Argus. When is it.
@ grootblousmile:
It is ‘paltry’….!! 😉
The other sort lays eggs!
Penalty wales… this pitch is a lottery at scrumtime
@ superBul:
Hi superBul, the Argus is 10 the March (28 days) My training has been terrible this time…. injury, illness and snow have not helped!
I am very aprehensive to be honest! 🙁
Falcon on the head for a frenchie… hehehe
@ superBul:
Actually quite noticable don’t you think!! lol 😉
Can’t believe ths score is sticking at 6 – 6 !!
Come one, will someone put the other one out of their misery!
Maybe this SHOULD end 6 / 6, not worth anybody’s game
Tryyyyyyyy George North!
At last, something to cheer about
I see my fantastic superBru 3rd place changing drastically by the end of the weekend.
George North you beauty!!
And Wales snatch the lead. What will the Frogs do now?
80 @ Blue Bird:Settling in well, found some awesome MTB up here, some great forests and tracks!
Wales 13 / 6 France
‘There will be singing, in the valleys, land of my fathers’…..beautiful conversion!!
Penalty Wales, in range for Halfpenny
If Halfpenny gets this he deserves to be a full penny.
Wales 16 / 6 France
@ Just For Kicks:
Well as the days get longer it should get better and better. You moved at a very tough time of the year!
Halfpenny….Yabba dabba doo
That aerial shot showed just how poorly the pitch inlays have been done. No wonder they are just ripping up
And the Frogs are fried once again.
Less than 5 minutes to go, can’t see France coming back from this now
@ The_Young_Turk:
Hahahah, I will give him a pound after those kicks
Are the French playing worse than last week? I can’t really tell
3 Minutes to go….
France Penalty… what will they do… quick tap of course
French knock… yeah, they don’t want it
At last Howley gets his name on the winners board. Taken him a while, but hopefully now will be the start to a Welsh upturn.
Seconds left… and there’s a French lineout
Time is up….
WRS on the edge of the sofa!!
