Household rules and regulations during a Rugby World Cup are normally laid down by the so-called ‘head of the household’. This goes hand-in-hand with a sort of overnight personality change by the alpha male. He starts off by refusing any social invitations over the seven weekends of matches which might encroach on the date and time any game is played – even if it is only Os Lobos from Portugal against The Oaks from Romania.
His voice gets deeper and threatening, and he has an aggressive attitude. If he had some dirtyflying past dropped a little poop on it!
