Alright alright, now or never if a (good) team would want to come into the legendary Stade Marcel Michelin and break that legendary streak of home wins. Legendary. Now or never, Montypellier. First game of the weekend, could/should be a crackah ! Even without their french int'ls, ASM Clermont got game. Hopefully nothing more than a pre-game scare, gaston, your boys just ain't good enough...

All home vins. Except Toulon who'll grab the opportunity and take a nice, rare win on the road to get back on track - currently fifth, here are the standings as of....legendary:

Also looking forward to Castres Toulouse, could be nice, they both have a nice team even without the int'ls. Especially "Castor Olympolux".

Have a look at Rugbyrama Clermont have only 2 props to train with this week, this is getting better by the day the record will go Sat and the winners are MONTPELLIER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

* Montypellier.
And just for the sake of having absolute silence on this thread and a lot less exclamation marks, I want Clermont to put a bunch on MP. That's right. This time, it's personal !

And it's true that ASM scrum might struggle a bit...worst thing is we actually wanted to pick Clément Ric too for les bleus ! :p :p but they're without Kayser (newly injured), or Domingo and Debaty on the Loosehead side. While Zirakashvili is out playing for Georgia......Ouch.....a chance for Ric to prove his worth at scrum time though on the right. But thank God Figallo ain't playing.
Bonnaire Bardy Kayser Delany Kotze and Lacrampe out too for Clermont....

Montypellier apparently without: Mas, Nariachvili, Gorgodze, Pélissié, Figalo, Nagusa , Beatee , Hamilton though.

and screw Barrack Obama is what I was hinting at up there btw..

Is Montypellier the new Stade Flamboyant?
I can't keep up with you Frenchmen.

Achtung !!!!!!!!!! You miserable rascal !! Don't you know about the law (which I've just made up right now) of SF naming ?! Once a name has been found and deemed up to the high standards of our threads, the original poster will use it and the rest of the thread must follow. Each poster, in each comment, must follow the OP's choice.
It's "Stade FriskMe" today, and as noble sounding as 'Stade Flamboyant' is, it isn't the one that was picked.
Lucky for you I'm on my sleepy-sleepy pills atm, and it is extremely hard to make sense, or at least the sense I make when I'm sober...Because we wouldn't want there to be any place for HERESY around these woods..

You do well, young voyager, to inquire about the history of this land...."Montypellier" was a magnificent transformation, intentional or not so much still a mystery, that Tony decided to display. We're not sure if it means anything really, it's neither insulting nor complimenting. But it seems this is how it's going to be now around these forests..."Montypellier".

"We Can't lose at Home" any dirt-rolling farting peasant of small roads knows what it's referring to.....and until ASM Clermont do lose at home finally, so shall that lore and with it, the code, vanish forever.

I am so enjoying this thread from a far!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Enough exclymation marks?

Well, Biarritz are relegated and on the way to financial ruin, Montypellier are going to be undisputed champions for possibly the next four years (or while Galthie is there) and Toulouse are pretty useless these days so what else to talk about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Good god, we are going to develop our own language exclusively in this subforum. A way to keep outsiders out.
 
WITHOUTY DOUBTY. Galthie is there till 2017 that is the latest contract.
Montpellier front row had delivery yesterday of a new load of more fresh meat, they will look mean and hungry by the time they get to Clermont and will devours anything that Clermont dare place in front of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially if it is a couple of young espoirs props tender juicy and just ready to eat.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE RECORD WILL GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!MONTYPELLIER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Never too many exclamation marks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and gaston that fresh meat of yours better be ready for some Parra booting in a bunch of points, some insidious running from Nalaga-Malzieu-Sivivatu, some good midfield work from Rougerie-Lamerat, Jean-Marcelin Buttin at the back, and not to forget a big battle up front.

Me going with teh Clermont victories.....by fifteenies.
 
Just back from a player staff lunch and surprised to see a possible Rougereie- Lamerat partnership in the centres, unless i am mistaken Lamerat plays for Castres and i think they need him more than Clermont although i believe its tough at Clermont finding front rows and back row players due to International duties and injuries, so Big Ewis you had better have another good look in the locker room for someone else to help Rougerie.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE RECORD WILL GO THIS WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MONTYPELLIER WILL WIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
wow wtf....why did I say Lamerat ?....God my brain is falling apart with those messed up sleeping patterns and pills....
anyways yeh so they'll be playing Rougerie-B.Stanley I believe, like last week.

Forget about it gaston, enjoy your bragging on this only thread as best you can, it's all you'll get ! Clairvoyant Mont by the fifteens pointees.
 
Just not your day!!!!!!!!!!!!! After retifying your mistake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you now select Stanley!!!!!!!!!
Sorry unavailable injured !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is not good for you or Clermont!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The record will go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Montypellier to win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ahem, a few things. First of all, that's "rectifying" there you hasty little beasty. Second: my day was alright, thank you very much, I just brain farted there...I've got a mega sleeping/fatigue issue and am taking pills these days, my memory throws bizarre crap at me from time to time (I said Springbok Pat Lambie was a Scrumhalf the other day...I obviously know he's not a scrumhalf). Just a brainfart...

Next in line: ummm where did you read he wasn't playing ? As far as I know Benson Stanley is playing Saturday, alongside Rougerie at midfield...

Finally: Clairvoyant Mont by about 15. Record lives on happily ever after.


EDIT:
here's an estimated team (could be 100% correct) from some ASM fan:

"chaume , cabello, ric , hines, cudmore, vosloo, kazubek, lee, parra, james , sivivatu, stanley, rougerie, nalaga, buttin
remplaçants: falgoux, ti paulo, vermeulen , rado ou lacrampe, nakaitaci, malzieu, byrne"

Not too shabby...ey gastony ?

Not too shabby but- not too good either, Clermont have already started their losing winter streak, it goes Grenoble Montypellier, Bordeaux Begles while back in Montypellier things are just on the up win away against Toulouse home win Usap avec bonus point and then...............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE MAGNIFICENT RECORD OF 72 HOME WINS BY CLERMONT FINALLY ENDS.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes you guessed right Montypellier beat Clermont and go top of the TOP 14 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
More rugby today we are doing a public training session this morning in Lunel just down the road from Montypellier, all the local school kids and local rugby schools great invited, great to see the littles ones faces when they see their heroes, the HEROES that beat Clermont !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
hmmm unless MP wins by 50 I do believe they remain at 2nd.
And I'm not sure why that's even at question, as Clermont just can't lose at home....it's a tragedy, I mean, they've tried a few times...just never seems to work for them. I think they're just condemned to winning at home....for all eternity. But it could be the most entertaining match of the weekend, 6N included, although all 3 fixtures will be a blast...

Definitely the two most entertaining and pleasing for the eye teams in the whole Top 14, probably European clubs altogether. Clermont always insure the spectacle, while Montypellier are less stable but when they're on boy is it pretty to watch.
 
Ah you see if i presist you are starting to worry about the record, believe me !!!!!!!!!!!!!
IT WILL GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everything is starting to fall into place public training this morning, very good loads of bodies present, Galthie in the right place today and Friday he will be in Wales, Fri evening reserved excellent resto in Clermont for the little afffair (lever de rideau) Wales v France before the big game on Sat where the Record will GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, Clermont players interviews , unstable and defensive,!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the plan is going smoothly and by Sat everything will be in place,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we have employed James Bond just in case we need any inside info!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he is on his way to Clermont as i speak.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
^ you truly are the insane villain, gaston, but rest assured, I haven't changed my mind quite yet. It seems like you're trying to convince yourself rather than anyone else really, and your persistence is self-therapy. Like I said, Clermont have tried so many times but...it can't be done....they just can't lose at home, they just can't help it. They'd gladly do it...it's just impossible.

If you want a discount though, I'll give you a discount. That's as much complacency as I can give you. Clairvoyant Mont by 10+, not 15+. Just for you, gaston ;)
 
The Gaston is always right.............and have to say logic says he is right again!

By the way....53 plus four win points against one losing bonus point would make it 57 against 56 at best with Montypellier on top n'est pas?
