The Barbarians lead an under-strength Irish team 22-14 in Thomond Park tonight. The game is being broadcast on Sky but one can get a far more vivid and entertaining representation of what's going on via @Barbarian_FC.
The Baabaas twitter account is big on matey, chipper humour and almost all of the tweets have been delivered in that style.
Here's a selection of their finest hits.
Ortega off after a nasty blow. Hines comes on with demeanour of a bouncer eyeing a stag party. Bang up for it #rugby #BARvIRE #rugbyunited

Another scrum. Like kissing that Auntie at Christmas, have to tolerate it. 5-0 after 15 #Baabaas #rugby #BARvIRE #rugbyunited — Barbarian FC (@Barbarian_FC) May 28, 2015
.@IrishRugby would you like a loyalty card? Makes sense with all these return visits to our 22! Relentless #rugby #BARvIRE #rugbyunited — Barbarian FC (@Barbarian_FC) May 28, 2015
Moet! Rokocoko with a marvellous no look pass. With flair like that, he should be in interior design #Baabaas #rugby #BARvIRE #rugbyunited — Barbarian FC (@Barbarian_FC) May 28, 2015
Mikautadze takes a knock. Now there's a bloke who'd make a marvellous Bond villain. #Baabaas #rugby #BARvIRE #rugbyunited
