my favourites

"it's up the jumper time"

"park the camels and put up the tent"

Any kick from inside the teams own 40 is an attempt at a 40/20 according to Eddie too, no matter is it's towards the side or down the middle.

The defensive line's like dogs back leg

Champagne rugby

Come to daddy!

"poor kick" -in fact it's a case of who get's it in first as Eddie likes this one too.

Or 'a nothing kick.'

At least he has a couple of dozen phrases, we could be stuck with Terry 'No wit' O'Connor

'The forwards need to lay the platform and the half back can play off of of that'

or the variant

'The forwards need to go forward and the half back can play off that'

No way is that a try Eddie!


*sees a different camera angle, then watches the grounding*


This should be the green light and a T-R-Y!

(Nb what green light, we don't even have that in SL)

Stevo sees something no-one else does. eg 'there was a hand in there'

Video replay clearly shows there was no hand in there.

Stevo says 'Yep'

Eddies favourite, always after a player has made an easy kick..... he doesnt miss those!

A young leeds/saints/wigan/wire player has a few good games and he is "shoe in for an England spot"

One for Eddie,

"(hookers name) scheming from dummy half"

Always makes me chuckle that one. Well, I say chuckle. I mean shout obscenities at the TV. #retirestevoya

And the current obsession with tackling round the legs. And often when players are defending their own line, ignoring the fact that the attacker can just fall over the line/offload it if they do.

Some are moving up others are staying back!!!
(defensive line as straight as Burt Reynolds)

Or,
"Another scampering run by Burrow"

Tonight it was "a bouncing run" by Burrow - an odd variation on the theme.

and it was good to see 'Vim & Vigour' playing again - last night they were playing for Leeds in the first half - last week they played for Wires !

I do believe he was scampering when he got his first touch of the ball. I gave up the drinking game there and then. At that rate I figured I wouldn't last the course.

You'll all miss him when he's gone...

then we start the 'Bring back Stevo' campaign !

Is stevo seeing how many times he can say "either way" tonight?

I haven't heard "one tough hombre" in a while.

Go on *hooker*, have a go on your own!
The little half back, he's controlling things out there!
Smart kick! Nothing fancy!
