It's that time of year again...

[Treffie]

The Six Nations kicks off today, what are your predictions? Who do you think will win this year?

This is what the pundits say. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-union/16824077)

[Jack B]

France should beat Italy

England over Scotland (could be close though)

Ireland/Wales is hard to call, haven't really seen the teams

[Treffie]

Sorry Jack! It was such a close one that I went into hiding! The France vs Italy match was a predictable result, and the Scotland vs England match was dire.

Watching by beloved England team playing and beating the Scottish was inspiring, the commitment given by the whole team was magnificent...i do believe we have a championship winning team this year.:)

They'll have to work a lot harder than yesterday, Germ. At this moment in time, Scotland are the 2nd weakest team in the tournament - the matches against France, Ireland and Wales are going to be much harder.

[Treffie]

Italy 15 - 19 England

The France vs Ireland match was postponed because of a frozen pitch, it's most likely to go ahead in 3 week's time - can't help but feel sorry for the Irish fans, who've come a long way and spent heaps of money getting to Paris. :mad:

So this tournament is held in France? And i didn't know this was every year.

Nah, I think Scotland will beat Italy next week. England played very well against France today, I thought that les bleus would edge it.

Fuck. I didn't get to see England triumph over the frogs. Anyone have a link to highlights or a replay of the game that will play in the States?

Nope, the links that I provided previously have been closed

Bow down to us, you feeble countries. For we are, the mighty winners, of the Wooden spoon championship.


We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting - till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions - of the world

Best day of my life, just can't believe it. Swelling up.

Robinson has to go. There have been glimpses of great rugby from Scotland during the competition, but yesterday was pretty dire. Didn't expect Ireland to lose so badly against England either, and I think England are definitely on the up.

Yesterday's scores

Italy 13-6 Scotland
Wales 16-9 France
England 30-9 Ireland

Champions!

What's that saying, you can't polish a turd. We're still shit if Robinson goes.

Well Done Wales!
