Cardiff and Wales hero: Leigh Halfpenny |
The Grand Slam (France not withstanding) is ours for the taking, as long as the team kick their penalties, tighten up their line-out and above all else, stop the silly yellow/red cards.
The walls are still reverberating with the screams and shouts from the tries and especially that last penalty kick.
I don't know if there will be any rugby played in heaven... but there might just be some Irish and Welsh saints up there given a little time off to take stock of the match. There must be some rugby players who get there, sooner or later.
They must be singing Bread of Heaven tonight. We sure are down here in our little plot amidst God's creation.
Methinks you were very lucky to get that last score!
ReplyDeleteBut .....Congratulations!
Oh I dunno... reminded me of Ireland's last minute conversion at the Millennium Stadium a couple of years back.
DeleteThey were lucky too! What would you expect?
DeleteRugby players in heaven - lots I am sure but Bradley Davies will need to spend some time in purgatory for that tackle though.
ReplyDeleteI concur. I think the old "red mist" descended there. The rugby ball was in a neighbouring county by he time he grounded the player ;-)
DeleteYour lovely Nanny Anne and Da will have been celebrating up above for sure!!!! Love from Me xxx
ReplyDeleteI giggle at the thought of some of Da's mispronounciations of the new batch of players in all teams.
