Danny Cipriani is really f*cking sorry for f*cking up and f*cking saying f*ck on the BBC…

The problem live TV has compared to Scr*mbag is you can’t get away with saying f*ck simply by f*cking sticking a f*cking * where the u should be. Which is why when new golden boy Danny Cupriani said f*ck d*ring Sat*rday’s Six Nations coverage, many posh people spl*ttered their tea […]

newsfeeds@nzherald.co.nz wrote this article. Thanks to Telegraph TV (who knew they did more than papers) for this brilliant preview of today’s games. Moore actually seems quite relaxed for once! But what’s with all the coffee lads? You’re in a pub, you’re all retired! Have a Guinness for Christ’s sake!

Danny Cipriani stars on MTV in his pants - should Ashton drop him for it?

First drinking orange juice in a nightclub at midnight and now THIS? Surely Ashton has to drop him again. No? The Daily Mail have hunted down these embarrassing pictures that could make Danny “a national laughing stock” (you know what they are… like Ashton).
Just as you thought Cirpiani was […]

What has been your favourite Butler and Moore quote of The Six Nations so far?

March 4th, 2008 · No Comments

Lee Coan wrote this article. It hasn’t been lost on Scrumbag, or the good people who comment here that Butler and Moore are spiraling out of control on the BBC. Moore is getting so angry I actually fear he might die before the end of the tournament. Especially if the French manage to win […]

Our uncouth football friends over at our sister soccer blogs Chelsea Pies and Spurs Pies are giving away a crate of Carling beer and Carling Cup final match ball to celebrate their big match at Wembley this weekend.

What do you think of The BBC’s new Six Nations trailer?

January 31st, 2008 · No Comments

newsfeeds@nzherald.co.nz wrote this article. I’d best describe it as… expensive, predictable and a bit daft (Chabal’s diving around despite the fact France have dumped him). However, I’d love to know what you think about the trail which will be rammed down every rugby fans throat from this week onwards. Does it get you all […]
