Have you seen the spelling of some of the Welsh (Cymru) towns?
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwll-llantysiliogogogoch makes Waikickamoocow easy to say/spell/pronounce.

Da iawn huw. But they call it llanfair p g up in gogland. Try llwchwr. The anglicised loughor doesn't do it justice

That'd be a shame. Like hj said a few posts ago. Queuing for a pub, a ticket for a big game in Cardiff with roof closed and 70000 nutcases shouting and singing, back down the pub and finally late night chips and curry sauce in Caroline st should be on your bucket list.

Picking up where this thread started. I just watched the Ireland nz game and a couple of things struck me. One is that the kiwi commentators were the least one eyed I've ever heard. Sounded like they actually enjoyed rugby spectacle that was unfolding.Second is it strikes me that our nige has 'coincidentally' officiated some of the most exciting games this year. Whilst some might suggest he should be renamed Nigel eoins or o'wens for his ruck management for the first time ever I actually regret not being able to have welsh ref

Yep I like this line up

The only problem I have with this Lineup is both Harris & Foley on the bench. They're both too similar players which leaves us with no Wing cover. Surely dropping either Harris or Foley and promoting Betham would have been the best solution!?
Otherwise why the fuck is the ARU wasting 5k on air fares to get him over there in such a time of financial difficulty!?

I'd say fares are heavily discounted thanks to the 'Qantas' Wallabies.
Wing cover is AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)/Folau

Fainga'a finally dropped. Damnit! Team looks good. Bench not so hot IMO

No massive qualms with the team.
I thought Harris was better than Lelo last week, but it's a pretty even decision.
I also think Sita is great for that bench role, but Douglas is certainly a more traditional player who's got plenty of years left in Wallaby colours and I want to see him succeed.

Bit sorry for CFS, he did nothing wrong, but he's probably down the pecking order. Lilo had one bad game, I think as a result of playing out of position, but deserves his spot in the starting team.
Nice to see the forward pack has stayed much the same for the last few matches. I was starting to get over the constant changes in position. Settle your pack, settle your platform for the pretty boys to get the meat.
Looking forward to this match
