PANIC AT THE DISCO. AS USUAL.



With Poacher not there to calm him down, Chief did his usual 'ohmygodwhatarewegoingtodobecausenooneishere' routine. Until it was pointed out that we had enough players and reserves. And then we got some more courtesy of Jamie Livingston. Cheers buddy.
And then we had to decide what we were going to do with Currie. Unco-ordinated afoot plus not too sure on which way his arms go in a lineout call, we decided that retreat was the better half of valour and gave his touch judge position to a real live referee who just happened to be passing by. Phew.

The starting 15 was all Keith and the first 40 was old school Keithliness and hard yakka. It reminded me of the 1972 Lions tour. Ahhh, those were the days of real rugby players. And real rugby scores.
There weren't even any injuries, so possibly we have remembered how to play rugby the right way now?

Just a penalty apiece made for an interesting half time get it up them speech from Chief. And a few judicious changes in personnel gave us the impetus to score some fucking good tries for a change. We even got denied some fucking good tries for a change instead of just pushing over or intercepting a wayward pass to score. Clear thought out moves result in clear and thoughtful points on the board. Or on my wee pad that I keep track of the scores on.
Lucey tried his damnedest to score, but didn't quite make it, but still, Dick (am I saying that right Dick?) wont let anyone topple him from the points perch he has cemented himself onto (Article 4.1.7 of the Keith Charter in case anyone is interested).



We didn't miss Breen at all! Ha!! Or Dirk. Although I suspect Freddy will regret missing this game. It would have been right up his alley.
