Many congratulations to Wales. Their best game of the 6 nations and a very professional performance in tricky conditions. Not a classic, but it's the result that counts.
I thought that the ref...
Watching the Italy/France game, and have decided that Connor O'Shea has the worse job in the world. How they managed to butcher so many opportunities is a mystery. They should have won it with a...
Sadly, in so far that Badger might be English or Irish and wanting his team to win.
Would love Italy to beat France - which hopefully would force France RFU to do something about their game.
Wales Vs Ireland - tricky this one. Ireland have the hoodo over Wales recently, its...
Just a thought, partly because I prefer watching internationals/European games to league games. Quality not quantity.
As for the domestic fixtures the answer is easily - reduce them, by reducing...
I am not sure to be honest, but it makes sense.
Then no one can win a GS.
You are not wrong. In which case no excuses. :smug:
I get that, but why the 3 bonus points.
If team A, wins 4 games (all with BPs) plus gets a losing bonus on the game they lost, they would have 21 points. (4+1 x 4) + 1 = 21
If the GS wining...
Good effort by Scotland today, but Wales did just enough again. They will need to do better against Ireland in Ireland, but Wales have got into a good habit of doing just that
England on the...
Watched the Ireland vs Italy match today and throughly enjoyed it.
However I am not sure whether Italy really stepped up to the task or Ireland are going backwards and lost their way since last...
Bugger!!
But well done Wales. Fantastic performance especially in the second half.
Not sure what happended to England - I really don't, but keeping giving the ball away did not help.
...
Well that was fun. Scotland were poor, France were better, but not much. In fact the reason they were improved was because Scotland for the first 60 minutes were shocking.
If Scotland want to...
Very envious. Irrespective of the results, you will be there to experience what is one of the greatest events in sport. Enjoy the day, especially as none of it really matters as soon as the World Cup...
England were bad last year (well, sort of lost their way rather than bad), but they still managed to beat Wales (who had a better 6 Nations) by 6 points. Two try's by May - the same guy who just got...
I think it will I'll be in the first half, however Englands bench should make a big difference. But it's only guess work otherwise I would be a very rich man. As for the Welsh comeback against...
Thats just wrong.
Arf and arf indeed, but I still don't quite get the chips AND rice bit, but it was "lush"
I agree on the predicting the score, however the fact that WalesOnLine posted it made it quite...
Totally agree. I was fortunate enough to watch the England Vs Australia game last year sat in the Penallta RFC in the Valleys with a group of under 17 English Colts (on Tour). It was a blast.
...
Quite an interesting piece on WalesOnLine about how a group of boffins/experts have used mathematical modelling to predict the outcome of this weekends matches.
Here are the predicted results for...
Oh yeh! Looks as if Itjoe will still be missing, Maco is a defo non-starter, but other than that the squad looks good and healthy.
Still not clear whether Halfpenny and Biggar will play....
Having played/watched 1000's of games over the years, it is very rare to find a ref who was completely neutral. At school/club level the best I hoped for was equality incompetent and not vindictive. ...
It would be perfect if Wayne Barnes and Nigel Owen had a love child. The outspring would make the perfect ref. :smug:
Its all about consistency in approach, allow the game to flow, talk to the...
I think the reaction of the crowd at HQ sumerized the game perfectly. A group of rugby fans silently watching a contest between two totally unmatched competitors with what could be best described as...
I wonder what the French are thinking when they know that England will soon deploy the Brench - including Nowell for Aston.
Anyone who has played the game will recognise the gulf in class between...
