TIME TO GET YOUR "SWING-LOW" ON!

[HERMAN BIX]

Your lot are about to see if the World Cup debacle was standard KPI !
I can watch in casual amusement , my lot have the " Boyos" first up.

That O2 in the shirt, is that O tries from 2 games ?!!

[jtracks]

WHAT ?

Herman I am immune to your taunts, I am bathing in the rarified air of victory,
Two tests won and the third and final one going very well. Oh yes the giants of test cricket (Sri Lanka) are like putty in the collective hands of Messers Broad, Anderson and a Wicket keeper/batsman the sainted Mr Bairstow who eats children for breakfast.

I am sorry Joe when you opted to leave the Empire you automatically lost any hope of being allowed to play real men's sports such as "Cricket", "Rugby Football" (Both Union and League) or "Football" which I understand is called in the USA "SOCCER"(wtf)
Never mind you do have a game that British Schoolgirls play called "Rounders" I think you call it Baseball
I await a combined backlash from every American and Canadian member of the Forum in the near future.

Rounders Haaaa piss cutter !

I honestly hope the Boyos give my lot a real run.
I feel a lot of the results will be influenced by the refs calls on the style of play. Yet to see who they will be.

Anyhow good luck in tonight's game,

Herman Is this you getting your excuses in early?

Being in the tropical splendour of South Carolina I would have expected you to be on the South Porch sipping a mint julep rather than adopting the dirt common Yankee habit of drinking BEER
One would hope that you are maintaining the standards of a Southern Gentleman and having it poured into a long glass by the lady of the house. ?

Ole Mr Eastern reclining about looking like Colnel Sanders !!

I say Mr Jarndice, the rebellious Colonials are frightfully confused about Gods Real Game

Excuses, no. Reasons for frustration-yes
It's almost happy hour here now, an hour to go till the first Test of the season. I've been starved of any rugby lately, so I feel at least one yellow card from the Mrs shall be served for excessive noise and abuse of the TV before the nights out.
I will be well ready for the England show after our guys slay the Dragon

If I recall correctly, the reigning rugby champions are the United States. However, it has not been an Olympic sport since 1924. They beat the only other 2 teams in the competition, France and Romania. This reign is likely to end this summer!

[HERMAN BIX]

Olympics !!

We did indeed put the dragon to the sword, but not without much angst and concern.
Can tell we had not been a team for longer than three weeks.
So far the English are putting the despicable convicts back in their place, but still a way to go.

The All Black game was not to badly affected by the ref factor, but why on earth an English ref should adjudicate over an All Black test and a French one over the English clash is beyond me

Anyway, we will get more integrated and improve, game 1 after a three week camp.
Wales are a threat and well deserved of respect and thorough preparation .

Let's see how this 3 test series goes for you guys.
