Beefy's Corner - The Off-Topic Chat Thread

It would help if I could remember the name of the other striker. He was foreign and hadn't scored much so I understood why he wanted it. Sorry to drag you into my murky world.

 

Australia 7 up.

 

Will never work.

 

Australia 7:3 Lions. Australia have missed two penalties already...may be our strength again. No idea myself...which team is favourite?

 

Great try from North. 7:10

 

Australia 12-13 Lions, poor kicking has seen the wallabies slip behind. Australia look better in defense and their way of playing is well suited to the refereeing. The lions don't have much going forward apart from north. Australia should win the series if they can keep half-penny away from the tee.

Israel folau who has only played about a dozen games of rugby union has been best on the pitch so far.

 

Went to the Pompey Ladies End of Seasons Awards at Fratton Park, which was good fun. Penny Mourdhant MP was there, as was Mark Caitlin, Pompey CEO, (who I shock hands with!) and Iain McInnes, Chairman of the PST. The awards themselves were good, then afterwards there was a disco and much drinking of Vodka. After the disco ended, we went to Liquid which was awesome, haven't been clubbing in ages (as you could probably tell) and Pompey Ladies had a reserved VIP booth so me and the players danced and drank and danced some more, it was so random and slightly bizarre clubbing and dancing with the players of Portsmouth Ladies!

 

The Le Mans 24 Hours starts in just under a couple of hours. Must say, not been looking forward to it as much as previous ones...

 

Greating kicking by the Aussies.....

 

Genuinely laughed when he slipped. Brilliant.

 

Andrew Surman was on a hat-trick against Barnsley about 2007, Rasiak wanted to take the penalty but Surman then scored

 

Same the ref gave them so much, but missed the Aussy punching some one.

 

Lions were lucky in winning didn't do much other than capitalise on errors. There was obstruction for the lions second try but probably not enough to rule out the try. Without the unfortunate injuries and poor kicking australia would have won comfortably.

The lions weren't impressive in the backs when you consider they have half-penny and north - two brilliant players.

 

Is it on TV ?

 

Embarressing goalkeeper blunder!¬

Yeah it's on Eurosport, they show the entire 24 hours. Not sure if they're splitting it across Eurosport and Eurosport 2 like they have done in recent years, but they'll be there anyway. I'm watching it online because I'm too poor for Sky

 

That's the one! I was struggling to recall a Lallana hatrick. Nice one.

Tst, Fran!

 

Can't remember the goalkeeper's name, but I know for a fact that he made another error that was just as embarassing pretty soon after. After that error, he walked off the pitch at his own accord and subsequently retired.

 

Thanks . Might have to buy the wonderful Mrs Jasper a box of chocolates !

 

15 minutes or so until the start, and it's starting to chuck down with rain
