Lazarus O'Gara
So there was an attempted strangling of Ronan on Saturday, or so Eddie would have us believe!!
Mmmmmmmmmm! call me cynical, but why???
Why on two counts....;
OK the Scots might have wanted to target O'Gara, and who can blame them (gobby little shite!!), and I know the Scots are not firing on all cylinders at the moment, but even they would not wait until the final minute surely!!!!???
Get him and get him early!!!
The other issue I have with this, is , why is the blame purely focused on the Scots??
What about his own forwards????
He was having a crap game......... and maybe one of them had just had enough...!! Maybe??
Sadly for all conspiracy theorists, I think it is good old Eddie just trying to stir something up. The Irish were brilliant against England, truly awesome, but against Scotland they were shite! Without putting too finer point on it, and so Eddie, God bless him, would prefer to talk about the Scottish strangler !!!than his sides own awful performance.
There is also the scandalous notion that O'Gara might have been concussed, and this is just a smoke screen!!!
Surely not ????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I see from your description of O'Gara you hold him in high regard.
It would be very irish to disable your own fly half right at the end of the game and then use this as an excuse for playing badly wouldn't it.
So what happened to lifting up the scots kilts and finding that they had no balls?
Will, you hinted that the assasin might not have even been Scottish. Have you thought that he could have been Italian and have snook in from the grassy knoll just outside Murryfield! in an attempt to put the Irishman out of action for next weekend.
Lets hope the Irish and French both play as well as they did this weekend and lose.
I am plesaed to see that the Welsh were so confident that the lineout that wasn't would have resulted in a Welsh lineout win, then a drive to the line and a try when they hadn't managed to do it all game against argueably the strongest set of forwards in the competition. Still they need to clutch at someting.
What about the Englishman who was witnessed flying in a top secret black helicopter into Murrayfield?!
Peter,
what have you been smoking??!!!
Fat n Balding,
You need to ask Zinny about the lack of balls under the kilt!! But my view would be that the Irish realised that they had lost theirs for the day also!!
Haha sorry Will,
Been reading too much conspiracy theory rubbish! All that Area 51, Aliens, 9/11, JFK stuff has gone to my head!
A limerick for the Irish
The Irish went to Murryfield this weekend that is true.
To play a team without a standoff or a clue.
Their opposition Zinny said had no balls
And with their grand slam dreams lost to the Gauls.
They said O’Gara was strangled and went blue
I like the conspiracy theory,
That guy de rollo sounds like he has italian ancestry have the spooks checked him out?
Wildman,
Like the idea, but I think the Italians would have paid for an inside job!! More their style!!
I think they would have gone for one of the forwards, maybe one of them has a relation with a failing business??? Or maybe one has been caught loitering outside the gents toilet!! Wouldn't like to say which one!!!
I think they have turned one of the Irish boys!!!!
We could be wrong, but we will find out very soon!!!!
All forwards know the ruck is a good place to lie down and catch your breath.
I see EOS is now claiming he was misquoted by the press, and the Irish players did not see anything.
What next ROG was told "not to inhale"?
Hi Will;
I know you dont like O Gara but unlike you were in the old slow days he is a class act. Top try scorer thrown in for good measure.If only England had him at fly half instead of sick note. Well you heard it here first Ireland will win in rome and O Gara will do the business with his boot.
Dear Munster Legend!!
A little touchy aren't you!!!
I can't believe you think I was slow!! That was just the camera work!!
As for England having him.........No! Never!! We would not contemplate having a bloke on our team who lay still on the ground whilst the smallest guy on the pitch hit him 7 or 8 times!!!
Shocking!!
He might be a class act in your book, but he is a soft schoolboy in mine!!!
Munster Legend,
On second thoughts, if you are bigger than me, which is highly likely!! Then I take it all back and you are right!!!
As for you breaking the news here first that Ireland will do the business in Italy!!! Don't think I am rude when I say that does not come as a huge ****ing shock to most of us!!!!
I am sure you will!
I think we will beat Italy, but i think it will likely be too close for comfort, and leave us all with no nails for the afternoon. I really wish we were playing last, because we have all seen munster make miraculous comebacks when they know what they have to score. We all know you love O Gara really Will, and have huge respect and admiration for him!!! There is no doubt that he is a class act, and one of the most consistant fly halves for both club and country that the world has ever seen. He will be top points scorer ever in the 6 six nations in a few seasons and is already the the top points scorer in europe. And once he gets that 6 nations record, I dont think it will be broken for quite some time.
A few early predictions for player of the tournament if I may :)
As I see it at the moment:
1. O Gara (well fancy that)
2. Strettle
3. Parise
Hi Will,
I enjoyed the podcast tonight it was very good any chance of making it to the radio at some stage talksport late evening rugby chat would be fantastic.Not enough quality rugby chat on air. I was only joking about the slow bit earlier. I meant to say i think Ireland would win the championship.Any chance of picking the Lions starting fifteen if the tour was this summer on the next podcast. Who would be in on the performances in the six nations .
Munster Legend
>Any chance of picking the Lions starting fifteen if the tour was this summer
Well, you'd want Flood or Geraghty at 10 for a start, rather than some Irish "choker".
Well if its Geraghty at least hes still Irish so ill agree with you. But he may need a few tests under his belt as would flood. But the only real choker in the six nations so far was the english at croker have you forgotten 30 pint cushion.
Boys!!,
I will give a Lions selection a go this afternoon!! That should really piss a few people off!!
I am not sure it is fair to say that we choked at Croke park, I think you have to be in with a chabce of winning the game at some point to choke!! To be fair we were only in it during the anthems!!!!
>have you forgotten 30 pint cushion
Aha!
You've let the cat out of the bag there! None of us English knew about that part of it.
Well, no wonder the Irish team fought so well. Who wouldn't with 2 pints of (presumably?) Guinness inside each of the players.
Will,
I think you need to bring this to BA's attention sharpish. Obviously the old ways had something going for them.
