Every week we ask a random person to play pundit ahead of the weekend’s fixtures…
Week 3 – Peter Nowell, taxi driver 
RUCKED: Alright chap, how’s things?
TAXI DRIVER: Not bad, can’t complain really.
RUCKED: What’s your rugby knowledge like?
TAXI DRIVER: I know a bit, it’s not too bad…
RUCKED: Okay, who do you think will win out of Wales and South Africa?
TAXI DRIVER: Where is it?
RUCKED: The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.
TAXI DRIVER: Has their coach left?
RUCKED: Yeah, but the new one isn’t in place yet, they’ve got a caretaker coach?
TAXI DRIVER: Hmm, okay, I’ll say the Saffas by a narrow margin.
RUCKED: Why’s that?
TAXI DRIVER: They’re world champions aren’t they? And Wales are a bit rubbish. And the Saffas have got that big bloke who’s lightning, what’s he called again?
RUCKED: Bryan Habana?
TAXI DRIVER: That’s him.
RUCKED: Okay, how about Bath v Bristol?
TAXI DRIVER: Bath.
RUCKED: Why’s that?
TAXI DRIVER: They need to start performing…
RUCKED: Well, technically Bath are second in the league.
TAXI DRIVER: Are they? Oh, I didn’t know that. Well, in that case, they need to keep their good run going! I don’t think I know much about rugby really.
RUCKED: Not to worry, do you know any interesting facts about Bath or Bristol?
TAXI DRIVER: Well, up until recently Bristol was one of the only places that wasn’t part of a county.
RUCKED: Really?
TAXI DRIVER: Yeah, it’s got a county now though – Avon I think.
RUCKED: Did you know Portugal invented the bulletproof shoe?
TAXI DRIVER: A bulletproof shoe?
RUCKED: I know, amazing eh? Turn left here please chap…
TAXI DRIVER: I didn’t know there was a bulletproof shoe.
RUCKED: There is and Portugal can claim to have invented it. Finally, what about Ospreys v Leinster?
TAXI DRIVER: Didn’t Leinster beat Leicester?
RUCKED: Yes they did.
TAXI DRIVER: And didn’t the Ospreys get to the semis last year?
RUCKED: No that was Scarlets.
TAXI DRIVER: Oh. I’ll say Lenny then!
RUCKED: Thanks very much, how much is that chap?
TAXI DRIVER: £12.30 mate – the predictions are free!
RUCKED: You’re too kind.
