Andy Powell Arrested

[ColinM]

Munchies at 6.00am after 14hrs on the lash? Probably.

5 Star Hotel, Golf Resort & Country Club that doesn't provide 24hr room service? Probably not.

[WhiteKnightoftheWeld]

yeah but would it do microwaveable hot dogs and Sunny D?

[WhiteKnightoftheWeld]

i would have given a lot of money to a charity of the welsh management team's choosing to have sat in on that Sunday morning meeting...

i can imagine gatland going ape, edwards trying to look raging but inwardly chuckling, the players pissing themselves before trying not to pi$h themselves even more...
AWJ pleased that no-one is cross at him anymore
hook thinking i wish alfie was here to give me a cuddle
halfpenny thinking this is the funniest thing ive ever heard
adam jones thinking they did it better in my day - i'd have nicked gatland's car

He has been booted from the Wales squad for his efforts.

YM, there's a difference between doing something silly when drunk and doing something that can endanger the lives of yourself and other people. He's right to be charged and dropped from the Wales squad

Who is this strangely sensible and socially responsible chap masquerading as the formerly daft as a brush Colzo?

[Shan]

Hands up here who has not done something silly when drunk.....jolly high jinks thats all;;;;;;;;;;the Copper must have been a jock or just a jobs worth wanting to make a name for himself

Valid question YM and I agree a few silly things have been done by most people when intoxicated, some of us don't even need drink to do silly things.

I have to say though I draw the line at gowling about on the main road in a motorised vehicle while drunk.

Thankfully Shopping Trollies aren't motorised or I'd look a right hypocrite.

I am neither young not innocent but I too draw the line at this.
There is a big difference between a bit of high jinks and something endangering life.

If he had veered into a car passing him it could have been more than just a laugh.

Welsh rugby and the copper got it right.

[Ithryn]

Did he even go on the motorway? Could have been up some path/side road. The man obviously needed some greasy food, and probably didn't even realised you could drink drive a buggy (doesn't look the smartest).

Ten years ago this would never have gone public, the coach would yell a bit and get on with rugby.

Although did some welsh players not go a bit mental after a match last season too?

[WhiteKnightoftheWeld]

papers reporting today he drove along the hard shoulder of the motorway for 2 miles

Exactly. High Jinks = stealing a buggy and driving it round the hotel/golf course, and maybe parking it in the water fountain.

Driving it down the motorway hard shoulder is ludicrous, allbeit worth a snigger as thankfully no one was hurt.

Reminds me of a certain gent borrowing a fleg from some nice Argentinian chaps

[nonplussed]

a throw back to the days where japery and high jinx were the order of the day when teams celebrated, we've all done countless things where someone couldve got hurt...but didnt. I think its hilarious to be honest!

[againstthehead]

halarious but a bit too dangerous... Bit like Flannery...
