The answer to life's problems are rarely found at the bottom of a beer glass - but it's always worth a look.

I cannot believe anybody would be so stupid as to suggest the AWs stop listening to Dobbyn.

His music is like a lucky old pair of underpants that must not be washed until this wonderful journey is over.

Hmph, all you youngsters, what, with your drugs and your rock 'n' roll. What's the world coming to?

Dave Dobbyn well and truely in there despite all the music experts here

From the DOm P this morning, Tim Brown says

"If there is one man to thank for our good form at the World Cup it is surely Dave Dobbyn. His anthems have been the soundtrack to our tournament and it has been with the help of his lyrics that we have managed to turn South Africa into our own little slice of heaven.

Dave's version comes on just before we head out for warmups and inevitably brings on a singalong. After the game it has become the celebration song of choice and I can't hear the tune enough at the moment.

If we manage to pull this thing off and get through to the next round then there has already been talk about getting the man himself over for a live locker room show. Dave, if you are reading this, mate, mark your calendar, because somehow we'll get you over."

If it helps the team, good stuff. I don't really mind his songs, that is except for Loyal. I hate Loyal!

For those of you defending him, remember this; Dave Dobbyn is New Zealand's Val Doonican. TheJam2010-06-23 08:24:04

Without the knitwear!

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Val Doonican ? More of a Gilbert O'Sullivan (without the cloth cap) both prone to the maudlin songs

I had never thought about the first line of Slice of Heaven before that article, but now that I do it makes a lot of sense for them to listen to it.

I'd love to see Dave over there singing in the dressing room. If it pumps them up, then it must be good.

I think Dobbyn would probably be quite happy at being called NZs Gilbert O', and the last thing I want to do is to make the curly, balding rust-skulled dwarf happy.

I'd prefer to see him wallowing in abject misery, just as we have had to do thanks to his pitiful excuse for music.
