Mise :D
The sport that unites Catholic, Protestant and dissenter has had its day of days. Pity anybody who can't enjoy it. Some day.

It has been suggested to me to check out the marquee in Dave Parade before the game. So depending on time, I'll stick my head into the Dodger then head down the road.

Anybody heard of any cheeky ticket offers??

Don't know if I'd call it a Garden as such but there was a few benches outside alright. I actually got sunburnt the last time I was in Newport!

Were you not just sitting too close to the gas heaters?

No we lost. It was the week following us winning the trophy and the team played like they'd been on the beer for a week

Have we ever taken the game at Dave Parade seriously? Last year was a disgrace, the highlight of the night being having a chat with Mal as he was subbed off.

Just had word from the Dragons lads we met in the RDS - they all go to the Clubhouse before the game. It opens at midday and apparently if it's nice everyone will be outside.
