Every week we ask a random person to play pundit ahead of the weekend's fixtures...

 

Week 6 – Random girl on train Taxi

 

RUCKED: That’s a great book you’re reading.
RANDOM GIRL ON TRAIN (RGOT): I’ve only just started it.

 

RUCKED: It’s really good, I read it last year. What bit you up to?
RGOT: The post-apocalypse bit (she’s reading Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell for those few bookworm-y Rucked readers out there)

 

RUCKED: Interesting, it’s not my favourite bit, but it’s good. It gets better too.
RGOT: That’s good.

 

RUCKED: Do you anything about rugby?
RGOT: A little bit why?

 

RUCKED: I’m looking for some predictions about this weekend’s results.
RGOT: I don’t know that much, I’ve seen a few live games – I’ve seen Scotland lots of times at Murrayfield, used to get student tickets for £10 in those days.

 

RUCKED: You wouldn’t get tickets for a £10 now…
RGOT: No.

 

RUCKED: What was the last game you saw?
RGOT: Oh, I did go to Twickenham a couple of years it was with a load of Wasps fans – can’t remember who they were playing though. There was a lot of drinking involved…
It was a great atmosphere though, although my mum said the only reason I enjoyed it was because I always watch Scotland and they’re rubbish and lose.

 

RUCKED: Cool, so you’re Scottish?
RGOT: Yes.

 

RUCKED: Who do you think will win between Glasgow and Biarritz?
RGOT: I’ve absolutely no idea, should I say Glasgow?

 

RUCKED: Why’s that?
RGOT: Because I’m Scottish, but then I know nothing about either team.

 

RUCKED: Guess…

Well, Scotland never win anything, so it would have to be Biarritz.

 

RUCKED: Glasgow actually beat them last week – 9-6…
RGOT: That’s close. How did they get six points? Oh yeah, I know…

 

RUCKED: And…
RGOT: I suppose you want me to say Glasgow now?

 

RUCKED: Erm, no not really…
RGOT: Well, I’m not going to change my mind, I’m going to say

Biarritz.

 

RUCKED: You go girl! Now, how about Perpignan v London Irish?
RGOT: London Irish

 

RUCKED: Confident. Any reason why?
RGOT: No, it’s a bit like that game when you say Ant or Dec – you know when people say things like Coke or Pepsi, Ice or Water, you have to respond straight away. Maybe they’re not the best examples…

 

RUCKED: Oh. Hmm, this could make for short predictions. Okay, Cardiff and Stade Francais – but more than two words please…
RGOT: I know nothing about these teams. That’s really bad actually because I was out last Saturday and my friends had watched loads of rugby games and were telling me about them and I was obviously not listening.

 

RUCKED: Shame on you, now give us an answer – maybe think of it as Cardiff or Paris?
RGOT: Paris, although the French aren’t the most reliable, although that’s based on the national team.

 

RUCKED: Ooh, so you’re an expert now…
RGOT: No. But they either play fantastic or they don’t, you can’t count on them.

 

RUCKED: So you’re saying Cardiff?
RGOT: I said Stade Francais.

 

RUCKED: But it seemed like you were changing your mind?
RGOT: I wasn’t changing my mind, I was just thinking through my answer.

 

Taxi

RUCKED: So you’re saying Stade?
RGOT: Yes, why not.

 

RUCKED: Thanks very much, enjoy your book.
RGOT: I will, thanks.
