Carls Hey Berg , rugby seasons starting !!!

Berg That’s right Carls

Carls Berg, I can’t wait to see all those teams scrumming down in the Knockouts, those warriors of the field, tough and proud….

Berg It’s an impressive sight alright Carls

Carls Berg , how about the majestic leap of the forwards as they claw air in the lineouts…..the desperate scramble for the ball in the rucks……

Berg Excitement personified Carls

Carls The crunch of flesh and bone as the pack slams into the speedy wing three quarter…….

Berg You have a way with words Carls … But you’re forgetting one of the best things about the game ……

Carls What’s that Berg

(SFX Bottle opening, glass poured, liquid gurgling down throat , satisfied “aaaaah”)

Carls Berg you’re absolutely right. Rugby. Probably the best game in the world.

Carls So Berg, know any good rugby songs?

Berg What ?

Carls Rugby songs ! You know, so that we can sing in the bar after the game …..

Berg I dont think so Carls.

Carls Berg , it’s an established tradition in the world of rugby that you have to sing rugby songs in the bar after the game…….

Berg I’m a rebel against tradition Carls.

Carls Berg, you’re telling me you don’t know such established favourites as the Knock Kneed Bargirl from Dublin ?

Berg Nope.

Carls The Man Who Had a Tongue that Was Twelve Inches Long and Who Learned to Breathe Through his ears?

Berg Don’t know that one

Carls Wait …..I know something that will get you in the mood

(SFX Bottle opening, glass poured, liquid gurgling down throat , satisfied “aaaaah”)

Berg (starts swinging) Swing Low, Sweet Chariot…….

Carls I knew that’d do the trick. Rugby. Probably the best game in the World.
