The Mystery of the Duracell Bunny

So who is the pink fluffy one who gave the girl a night to remember ? Scandal, as ever, will out. Just ask Dallaglio...
Interestingly, the England camp's travelling lawyer, the beak with the brief, has refused to allow his charges to talk to the police. This is called "fully co operating with the authorities", apparently. So when you're next pulled over on suspicion of drink driving, don't answer any questions, don't blow in to the bag, and see if it works for you...
Initially, I wondered if the "serious incident" in the hotel room may have been a Charlie Hodgson tackle. Maybe I misheard the "tackle" reference.
Today Henry's Kiwis continued their journey towards ultimate salvation in 2011 by playing at about 50% against an England team that no longer plays as though it understands what it is trying to do. Big Jonno sensibly stayed at home.
So, Mr Kiwi Copper, there's one of them that has an alibi.

Embarassment, no riches...

According to the Indie on Saturday morning, Gatland and Edwards didn't do 40 point drubbings. Well, they do now....
Outmuscled by a rampant Bokke back row, then outwitted by the skill and speed of Jean de Villiers, the Grand Slammers came third, while the world champions looked exactly that. The Welsh conceded soft penalties when they needed to stay in touch, and coughed up the ball just when they needed to hang on to it.
More than anything else, they didn't look as though they were relishing the contact - all a bit of a throwback to the world cup performances, with a couple of sweeping moves resulting in excellent tries thrown in to remind us of what we'd thought we'd left behind at half time at Twickenham.
Well, boys...hope you're enjoying the training sessions in the wake of this minor debacle...
