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

 

Week 8 – The Nurse (Hilary)Taxi

 

RUCKED: Hello. Have you given any thought to this weekend’s rugby results?
THE NURSE: Should I have?

 

RUCKED: Not really. Who do think will win out of Ospreys and Leinster?
THE NURSE: Ospreys.

 

RUCKED: You sound sure, why’s that?
THE NURSE: Because I like teams named after birds.

 

RUCKED: Oh. Such as?
THE NURSE: Well, Crystal Palace are called the Eagles…

 

RUCKED: Anyone else?
THE NURSE: I don’t know, which teams are named after animals?

 

RUCKED: Erm, Sale Sharks?
THE NURSE: Are any named after birds of prey?

 

RUCKED: Newcastle Falcons. But we don’t need their result. Do you have a favourite bird of prey?
THE NURSE: An owl.

 

RUCKED: Oh. Why’s that?
THE NURSE: Because they’re small and fluffy.

 

RUCKED: Owls aren’t small are they?
THE NURSE: It’s all comparative.

 

RUCKED: Sorry?
THE NURSE: Well, Barn Owls are small…

 

RUCKED: You’ve lost me there. How about Bath v Gloucester?
THE NURSE: No idea, Bath.

 

RUCKED: Why?
THE NURSE: Because it’s a nicer place.

 

RUCKED: When did you last go to Gloucester?
THE NURSE: Ten years ago but I didn’t like.

 

RUCKED: It might have changed…
THE NURSE: I doubt it, besides Bath is quite upmarket.

 

RUCKED: Are you posh then?
THE NURSE: No. Just aspiring, it’s also got the Cath Kidston flagship store.

 

RUCKED: Who’s that? Never mind. Who’s going to win out of Northampton v Bedford, it’s a local derby.
THE NURSE: How many more of these have I got to do?

 

RUCKED: Last one…
THE NURSE: Northampton and Derby isn’t a derby?

 

RUCKED: No it’s not, but Northampton v Bedford is?
THE NURSE: Oh. I’ll say Northampton.

 

RUCKED: Why?
THE NURSE: I’ve got friends there.

 

RUCKED: Fair enough. Thanks very much.
