That screaming nancy boy poof, chav, one game wonder, who has never
done anything else in the history of rugby has just set a new Celtic
League points scoring record by being the first player to pass 600
points. No, we're not talking about O'Gara, Conteponi, O'Driscoll, or
Humphreys, we're referring to the old leg shaver himself, none other
than Mrs Church: Gavin Henson. He is SO crap.

Hi Martyn,
OT, but congrats on the win over a quite decent Leinster.
Will definitely be downloading the game if/when some kind soul uploads
it.
Regards

It was a very decent Leinster team *on paper*.
Dempsey, Hickey, Darcy, Contepomi, Easterby, Horgan, Corrigan, O'Kelly,
Gleeson...
However, the men on the grass bore little resemblance to those named.
With the exception of a typically solid kicking performance from
Contepomi, they brought nothing to the party. Shapeless, rudderless and
almost comically error-prone, they were spared an historic hiding only
by the Blues' now-familiar propensity to score tries for the opposition
out of politeness.

Now why didn't I think of that?

I saw them play Glasgow recently, and they were pretty flaked tbh....

IIRC, but for a lucky Henderson interception and a very late Corsar
try, Glasgow were stuffed.

Oh, he wouldn't be crap if he was English. The trouble is, then he'd be
injured.

You know me, not one to compain about a reffing performance but....
First scrum: Glasgow penalised for not taking the hit, second Scrum:
Glasgow penalised for pushing too early, third scrum: Glasgow penalised
for having a prop named Kevin, etc. etc. etc. How Leinster went the
whole game without getting a yellow was beyond me. Players on the
ground in a ruck can't drag the ball back with their hand unless their
name rhymes with Violent Stamping Fucker err, I mean O'Miss... wow,
it's hard to rhyme his name, you know who I mean and frankly the whole
team was at it all game.
The Henderson intercept was never lucky, he read it from yards away.
The Corsar try on the other hand was was lucky, loose tap back lands in
hands of charging prop with only Hickie in the way. Nice side step
though (by Hickie to avoid the tackle).

At the time, I didn't blame him. He is, after all, only a girl.
