What better way to celebrate a Friday than
a beer in hand, crisps in bowl, TV beaming
early game - apart from really being there -
tho’ you’d see its clearly closer to the ideal
than icy cold stadium and frosted breath a-
flood in chilling breeze; sweetly next to the
slow-burner this chair reclines neatly when
the going gets tough for a horizontal view
this is Super Rugby, not an effete clash of
stockinged feet’s tense pirouettes, its best
leave it there left tho’, we’ve an ocean of it
to surf in, so I’ll crack another beer for the
victory of any team earning my respect
