Fantastic game too! (Could you get to watch in Arizona Kieran?)

I listened on the BBC over the interwebs.

Well I hope you can download a video clip of Stringer’s try. It was quite something.

A really great game – Stringer played a cracking match. The expression on his face as he snuck around the scrum and realised that there was a big fat gap to run through was a joy to behold.

And the second subject category is entirely appropriate … (at least in Limerick)

From L’Equipe

“une faute grossière d’inattention basque était immédiatement sanctionnée par Stringer qui, d’un mouvement pivotant en sortie de mêlée, allait inscrire un essai de renard sous le nez de Betsen.”

“un essai de renard” — nice expression.

I’ve just walked back from a friend’s house re-warming party through the centre of Cardiff and it’s still thronged with red-shirted Munstermen. Any French are making themselves scarce.

Who cares about Munster, when it’s the day of rockening?

Hardrock Hallelujah!

Jeez, Biarritz should sack their winger and their blindside flanker. What a soft try!

Got up at 7:00am to listen to it over the Internet. Great game, though I’m not sure it was quite up to the standard of the Hurricanes – Warratahs semi-final on Friday. Here in California we can watch Super 14 over the Internet. Very cool.

And yes, go Finland! Is there a video of Lordi’s peformance online anywhere?

All your base belong to Lordi, winner of the Eurovision Song Contest.

Imagine, if you will, the offspring of GWAR and ‘Up With People’.
