Might grab the wife and kid, pack a nice hamper, lay out a nice rug and go frolicking with them amongst the daisies at my local park. All to the tune of Louis Armstrong’s…

And when I get home I will steadfastly abstain from all social media and unplug the TV.

I suggest you all do the same.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Storm 130+

Let's not watch this one. Why do it to ourselves?

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

God help us.

With God's help we'll only lose by 50

 

[Apey]

Looking forward to this. Love me some excellent attacking football. I'll just pretend they're in red and blue.

 

[Zoidberg]

Maybe they got all those pesky tries out of their system now.

Oh, we’re all coming with you, don’t worry.

 

[Mr_Knightside]

Can we all make an agreement not to watch or talk about this game? It’d be hilarious to come on here after the match and not see a single post about it haha.

 

[Yosh]

We're gonna be park of history!!!

 

[Medievalknight]

God help us.

no chance

 

[The Axe of Druss]

Not sure my mental health could take watching this game

Might go camping somewhere with no internet

You’ve got my agreement. My wife was quite pleased when I told her this morning I have nothing on this Sunday so we can go and do whatever she likes. She’s usually resigned to me yelling at the TV every weekend, so it will make a nice change.

 

[Apey]

Can we forfeit.

The rest of the season I mean.

 

[aqua_duck]

so who comes in for Gagai?

 

[Apey]

so who comes in for Gagai?

Da Mann to centre, Crossland to 13, and a mysterious plodder to the 17?

Can't wait.

 

[aqua_duck]

Da Mann to centre, Crossland to 13, and a mysterious plodder to the 17?

Can't wait.

the alternative might be Brayden Musgrove so its terrifying either way

 

[Yosh]

Surely Sasagi!
