She's obviously moving a lot more freely since she had her varicose veins done.
It might be related to the color of her hairs, she was loosing the blonde color of her hairs in Australia, now that she is shiny blonde again she is equally brilliant on the field.
Gwent -d- Stade Françaiswasn't a surprise?
I didn't knew the result at this time but you should know that the Stade Français is not winning many games this year, so it is not that surprising they lose a game away from home.

The second surprise, the first one being a bad one, is also coming from Italia where Trevise has earned a convincing victory against Bourgoin.
Trevise is a good team. It's not that surprising, it's more that they are not as famous as they could.
The Stade Francais is below everything this year, so its poor performances in the cup aren't surprising either.

Yeah well, wait till her PMT causes her to scratch a ref's eyes out and costs you a game.

Not only did Stade lose, but they got a red card; discipline seems a problem for French teams this year
And Leicester are being hammered at Ulster
"An Outside Context Problem was the sort of thing most civilisations encountered just once, and which they tended to encounter rather in the same way a sentence encountered a full stop" - Excession
Still, Havak did get in early the other day with his pre-emptive excuse - something about a lousy ref.
Speaking after the match, Leicester coach Deano illustrated perfectly what Havak has been saying about him recently - that he's a self-deluding d*ckhead:
"It's still open," said Richards to Britain's Press Association after their four-try-to-nil loss. "We're in one of those pools where it's difficult to predict the outcome."
Pardon, Deano? I'd've thought the outcome of a Leicester match these days is very easily predicted.
Now, the truly worrying thing about all this is that I'm almost starting to feel vaguely tempted to feel sorry for Havak. Still, a stiff drink and a good self-flogging with a birch branch and the feeling will hopefully pass.

As far as I am concerned I feel sad for all the Leicester Tigers fans (yes Finbar, that includes Havak). When you are yourself supporting a great historical team (unfortunately it can't be your case Finbar), you can hardly feel any joy when another historical team is falling on its knees.

I just wish you'd adopt my philosophy - if you can't say something nasty about someone, don't say anything at all.

Sadly that is true - Samoa internationals Maurie Fa'asavalu and Dom Feaunati have switched codes from rugby union to league by signing for Super League side St Helens.
Unfortunate that it came to this yes, albeit understandable given that Samoa just doesn't have the population base to support its players on the same level.
I just wish they could've found an S12 team to take them in instead.
Or even better if the competition were to admit island sides to the S12 as, basically, a second tier perhaps, along with the remainder of the SH domestic clubs.
Maybe organise it along the lines of football in the European leagues - promotion/relegation for the top couple in the second tier and the bottom couple in the S12 respectively at the end of each season?
But remember - there are always exceptions to the prevailing trends in life.
Yes those 'leagueys' really did distinguish themselves in the RWC didn't they? Now if I could only remember who they were...
Did you see the state of the pitch in the Stade Ernest-Wallon? It was a real boating lake. Toulouse were lucky that the opposition was awful perhaps? It’s all well and good Tamerlin praising them for their courage on the day but where was the skill? They were as bad as Tigers.
Oh and as Tamerlin has hinted Labit has gone all peroxide again.
I suppose that Havak is either on the verge of a depression or about to have a heart attack.
I’ve moved beyond anger and despair into a calmer philosophical reflection on the affair. Ulster are a decent team (isn’t flipside an Ulster boy) but even so they should not be beating us to a scratch score. Something rotten in the state of Denmark – wish I knew what it was. One thing is evident – the players yesterday put little heart into it.
Add to this the strong rumour that Jonno will announce his international retirement after next weekend and 2004 is shaping up real nice for me.
And if that isn’t good enough – Gibson limped of injured after ten minutes and Ollie Smith got carried off on a stretcher a few minutes later. Marvellous.
Lets try to give a sense of reality to our current dilemma – before last November the last time any Tigers side had failed to score points in a match was 1990. Now the first XV have been blanked twice in two months. It’s…inconceivable that this can be allowed to continue. I want blood.
Now, the truly worrying thing about all this is that I'm almost starting to feel vaguely tempted to feel sorry for Havak. Still, a stiff drink and a good self-flogging with a birch branch and the feeling will hopefully pass.
I’ll help with the flogging if you like.
The return leg with Ulster kicks off at 3pm this Saturday. By 5pm Deano may have to resign. If he doesn’t so do we may soon have an EGM at the club.
As Finbar has pointed out Deano’s quotes are getting surreal. To the local radio station yesterday – “we are talking a good game on the training ground and in the changing room but it’s not making it onto the pitch”.
As upset as I am I can see the humour in that!
you can hardly feel any joy when another historical team is falling on its knees.
I regret to confess I did gloat when Bath went through the same thing – and now that is certainly coming back to haunt me!
I just wish you'd adopt my philosophy - if you can't say something nasty about someone, don't say anything at all.
On which note the reunion of McCrae and O’Gara went to form – O’Gara sparking the creative rugby and Duncan swinging his mitts around on more than one occasion.
Oh yes that made my weekend too didn’t it – Glaws winning.
It is better to keep silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt

They won. Perhaps J**** should adopt la poule's motivational methods.

Oh good. I'd been thinking of sending you Elizabeth Kubler Ross' Six Stages of Acceptance.

There's obviously nothing else for it except
And that's Pepsi he's drinking.

Look, it could be worse. On the History Channel tonight, in a doco about the history of plumbing, someone actually said: "Plumbing is our past. It is our present. It is the arteries (sic) of our civilisation".

A heavy rain fell over Toulouse for two consecutive days, without the hard work of the voluntaries the game would have been cancelled.
Toulouse were lucky that the opposition was awful perhaps?
This has nothing to do with luck, sir! :uttercontemptiblelook:

My original intent was to add "limited though" before "courageous" but I changed my mind because it would have depreciated the performance of both the Stade Toulousain and the courage and fairplay of the Welsh who have continued to play until the very hand of the game. Though they were lacking some skill they were not that bad, they are mainly lacking the habit to play together as the Ospreys are a newly formed "provincial" club.

She was great.
