Better team won today.
They matched our strategy of one pass rugby by meeting us at the gain line and winning those collisions.
Samoa is now a must win game.

[Raoul Duke III]

Be very interesting to see can Japan back it up against Scotland.

It was always a must-win game?

Scotland can't finish ahead of us anyway so QF is assured. I suspect Scotland beat Japan.

[ComradeCollie]

Im due for a hair cut tomorrow actually.

Any interest in meeting up for a haircut and a couple of pints? Always wanted to try Lloyds on Amiens st, but find the area a bit intimidating.

Rounders, highlights of Aus-France 1987 on Eir!

I'm not an egg ball man but I thought the referee missed a lot of blatant offside from Japan..I have Japan in a sweep. Does this mean Ireland play NZ now or will they still top the group?

If Japan win out (Samoa and Scotland) they top the pool and we play NZ.
So we need to win out and hope Japan drop something.

[Solksjaer!]

Ref had a few bob on Japan all right.

[ArmaniJeans]

Not really, the unspoken plan was that we'd go into that final pool game on 15 points with next best on just 9 points, so we'd have had the pool won with a game to spare.

You can't really blame him, he just about ignored that there is such a thing as an offside line as long as we were trying to get through the line.
There were also a couple of clear knocks / forward passes that you don't normally see missed at this level. Would probably put it down to an inclination to give the host nation a bit of a leg up as underdogs and TBF they didn't play like they needed it but that's no reason for him to ignore it.

Had been hoping that the shock of the tournament would be a turn up in the SA Italy game now it would be fairly sick if that happened and we didn't profit from it!

Mark English's 800m heat at 15:15 and Barr's 400m hurdles semi at 16:05 on BBC for anyone interested.

[shrapnel]

Japan beating number 1 ranked team in the world. now there's a headline!!

that group is still wide open though. Ireland could still comfortably finish first if Scotland actually show upin their game vs Japan

[Lazare]

Seemed a very bad strategy from English.

Shaun Murphy must have some record for weight fluctuation, was very thin a few months ago and now seems to be heading back to his Augustus Gloop days.

Just missed one of the weirdest frames I've ever seen to make it 4-3. Handy enough for Murphy in the end. Final v William's tomorrow.

Yeah it was the beginning of the event.

V unlucky from Barr, needed 48.66. Some athlete though.

Are there designated legs for each team for each sex to run, i.e. men legs 2 and 3 or something?

Not actually sure, it's new to me as well. Was thinking the same questions as you.

Seamus Coleman wont be happy with his team mate taking that goal off him. Cracking chip by Coleman, going over the line and yer man heads it in right on the line.

I was at the Morton games last month when they introduced it for the first time. Was entertaining to watch but a little weird. On one leg a guy was up against two girls, girls got about 80m start on him and he romped by them with almost 200 to go.

There was a balance on the teams that night but I'm not sure of the exact rules.

They do it in the swim relays as well, and they're so entertaining. They choose their own strategy.

Booked chapter one 3 months ago for tomorrow night and I've come down with the worst dose I've ever had, 3 days off this week and no sign of getting better. Back to the doctors today. For fuck sake. The mother in law will be happy with a nice night out with her daughter

Top class by all accounts and she felt it was fantastic value at €108. The pics she sent looked amazing too so we will definitely be booking it again

[Denny Crane]

Had a strange interaction last night.

Had a few people over to mine before we went out. One of the girls, a close friend of my girlfriend, wanted to get ready in mine and landed up with a suitcase. I gave her a wine glass, she sneered the glass, said she was picky (it's a fucking riedel glass). Demanded to put on her spotify playlist (that really grind my gears) She went into my room while I was in the living room. Then took over it. She barged in while I was having a shave and didn't even let me get dressed in peace. In a taxi she started giving me condescending advice for an interview I've next week. Told me I'm really bad at first impressions. When out for dinner, she borrowed money to pay the bill and told me I wasn't getting it back (?). After the night out I had people back, her taxi got in first, and she was outside the apt shouting at me to open the door. Got in, went into my room, and her stuff was strewn everywhere. I blew a gasket, spent several minutes picking it up and dumped it in my hall. Had to air the room to clear her perfume.

I've never had such rude interactions with someone. Can't even begin to put myself in the shoes of how you could act like that. Yet she's great friend to her friends, really thoughtful and reliable. Just complete unawareness and consideration I guess. (she obv dislikes me at the very least at an unconscious level) She was actually mystified (and annoyed!) about why I moved her stuff. It actually wasn't intended malice (despite what it reads like) .I actually find it so baffling.

"hanging in with 18 left"

[Denny Crane]

Reminded of a few years ago, when AJ (I think) posted about being on a trip away with some single female friends, and him realising why they were still single.

Raoul said something before too about, people who wonder out loud about why they're single.

[Tar.Aldarion]

I love your slice of life baffled encounters. Not as good as the sociopath but quite enjoyable. If you want to know what a man’s like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals etc.

[Denny Crane]

Ha. I did avoid that by choice for an extended period.

Less said about that the better

Was fun to watch and play against that lad who came 2nd in the WSOP Main last year at least.

[hotspur]

Saw a play tonight where the only live character on the stage was a chicken.

That doesn't really do it justice. Fascinating play, Beckett's Room, with a stage set without characters. Dialogue was delivered via headphones, and the whole set was as if the characters were on stage: chairs would move, cups hover into the air, everything done on wires.

Even had a sex scene with the bed sheets going up and down.
