I agree with ya Ummm. The win is first and foremost, and if that means stretching away through penalties first then we should do that.

A win is a must here, Bonus Point also definately needed...


ooooooh, I'm always wary of targetting those thingies. Let's just get the win first, stop them from getting the LBP.

Our try bonus against them last year was a pleasant surprise, but a surprise all the same.

I think we should keep this thread for the Dragons game. So have started a new " Free Pints where " thread in other discussions section!


Good call.

So with George and Rodney out this weekend. Who do people think will start the game?

4 points is a must IMO. This is a huge game for our season.

I heard the Rodney is out  for 4 weeks. George out for 6!

I got the free pint in the skeff the last game. What other pubs do people know for sure are offering free pints to people who were at the game.


Could have some pub crawl if we get the full list of places. Nice cheap night  ;D

Word on the P12 site is the Dragons have had an awful string of luck with injuries to the backs and will possibly be dipping in to feeder clubs just to field a side. We have absolutely got to capitalise if that's the case.

Agree lads. Should be a win if they play to their abilities.


Any word on George's injury from Friday?
We should definitely be looking to win this though. Hope there is a big crowd there.
Do we get a free pint in Buckers after? How will that work with a season ticket? Surely I could go to every barman with my season ticket, and get a free pint. I won't, but I could

The Dragons are there for the taking, it would be shame if we did not pick up another win as they are not playing well at this moment in time. Would be nice to score a few tries as well, a bonus point would be nice at this stage in the season.

Need to get at least 4 points from this one methinks. Would be great to have 13 points after 4 games.
