keith Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Arriving at our holiday house near Avranches/ Brecey next weekend and just can't face the prospect of missing the big match! No television of course in our house ( we much prefer to forget the UK completely and focus on the wine and roaring fire instead) but on this occasion would really like to watch our next victory. Any suggestions as to the best place please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Our local bar will have the telly on and I've no doubt the "inmates" will be glued to it. I'm sure you'll find one near you doing the same. Although you might want to wear a flack jacket![:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that either the French or the English could quite believe what had happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre ZFP Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I can't believe I missed ALL the matches - because I was listening to England beat Sri Lanka (just!) in the ODI. Gripping stuff! A good weekend all round for UK sports with the exception of Louis Hamilton spinning out of the Jap Grand Prix when he was in the lead - oh well....there's always Brazil. in 2 week's time.

TWINKLE Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 We were watching Saturdays Haka dance to the French on Youtube last night. When I just tried to put up the link on this thread there was this message.Cette vidéo n'est plus disponible. Rugby World Cup Limited a déposé une plainte pour infraction aux droits d'auteur. What's that about? Bruised egos? You can see all the other Haka dances for previous matches BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renaud Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 In NZ aparently, if a team scores through a forward pass that the referee did not see, the team who scored then beg the referee to disallow the try and have a scrum against them instead.

raindog Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Forward passes are like swings and roundabouts - sometimes it works against you, sometimes for you. No point in whinging about it.(having said that, France have made it a speciality these last few years[:D]) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
