I do enjoy watching rugby, but most of the time I have no idea what the referee has given certain decisions for. I also still haven't the slightest clue what the point of a scrum is. The South Africa Ireland match was decided on points gained over a technicality over the scrum. A massive game won because someones arse was too high in the air or something.

Winnersaint Posted 12 October, 2023 Share Posted 12 October, 2023 (edited) I'm out with the dogs and I'm doing my civic duty with the poo bag and I go to the area where one of them has crapped, and I bend down and scoop the turd inside the bag only to find it's stone fucking cold!

My brother in law bought us a miniature King Arthur sword in a stone from Cornwall, a 12 inch sword standing in a plastic stone. It's fucking awful, my wife doesn't want to hurt his feelings, but after a month or so I hid it away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkish Posted 14 October, 2023 Share Posted 14 October, 2023 international breaks. The premier league season is only 8 games in and they’ve already had two.
