Another must win game for Wales!

12 Feb

So we lost the first "Must win game" against England, so the game
against Scotland must be a must, must win game.

A few injuries still and a few changes. I hope Hook proves me wrong,
if he doesn't I hope Gatland replaces him soon enough. That said, it's
a team game and you can't hang it all on the 10 - our weakness at the
moment is actually at 9 where Mike Phillips is really off form (hasn't
looked great since returning from injury a while back).

Good luck boys, play like a team and use the top 2 inches.

Pob lwc. Cymru am byth! 8)

So I'm not the only one who dislikes the "poisonous little idiot" that is Andy Howell! 8)

"Andy Howell should be banneed from ALL press conferences as the he is a poisonous little idiot who only serves to damage welsh rugby by trying to sensationalise everything. Well done Paul Turner."

"Andy Howell is nothing but a poor excuse for a jurnalist who rarely if ever writes anything meaningful or worth reading, and HE ALONE is the reason i stopped buying the Western mail and Wales on Sunday. 

The man is a disgrace, and should not be allowed anywhere near the game in Wales, as he misrepresents it on a daily basis. I swear to god he must lay awake all night practicing to be offencive and incompetent because he is way too acomplished at those too element for it to be mere chance."

The Welsh obsession with 10?

5 Feb

The Western Mail love affair with James Hook continues with calls for
him to start at 10 against Scotland. I still think that Hook is
over-rated and he certainly didn't look good when he moved into the 10
slot last night. If anything, Preistland would be a better choice
seeing as he regularly plays at 10, unlike Mr Hook (who frankly
doesn't seem bright enough to play 10).

If anybody needs replacing it's Mike Phillips, I thought he was awful.
Peel has to start, Stephen Jones at 10.

I hope Hook gets the opportunity he wants in France and that he does
come good. But he's not there now.

Why do I bother again?

3 Feb

It all started with everything that's not going to plan. A not so insignificant list of crap... luckily it was followed by a list of (important) things which aren't going badly.

Whilst I still fancy a bottle of wine, it could be worse! And that's before we consider those who are far less fortunate than us in the western world.

Now, where did I leave that wine?
