Six Nations 2017

[Kestevan]

Wow. Who saw this coming?.

Well, strange you should ask that.....

Hope I'm wrong about the bloody Welsh though.

Well, I would love to see France beat the English today but I can't see it. The English team is on form, plays well and is at home so I can only see one outcome.
But then, who expected to see Scotland beat Ireland?

Chapeau to Princess Anne. She sticks by Scotland through thick and thin. Not often she gets to present a winner's trophy to her own team.

I am going for a new tactic, after years of proclaiming how it's going to be Scotland's year for as long as I can remember.

I just hope nobody mentions any recent(ish) form which indicates some hope...


Doh!

@Marmion and I knew that would happen. You look at our opening posts....you cant say we didn't predict it

My new approach seems to have got off to a good start.

I might even go with his prediction of Luke Rowe for a classics win at this rate...

Went the day well for the egg chasers then?

Once again things aren't going to script. England look shambolic and rattled. And they're doing the one thing everyone said would be the one thing they mustn't...making silly errors and giving away cheap penalties.

Several times in that half France were *that close* to a try. England never were.

The only saving grace is that I suspect France will be tireder than England in the crucial 4th quarter. But given how fancied they were before the match, it says a lot that England will I suspect be relieved to be even stevens at half time.

 

[gavroche]

Happy with the score so far. Allez France!!

 

[ozboz]

I have only seen 20 mins of game , England need a rev up , will be very dissapointing if they do us , also , a big well done to the Scots !!!

 

[LarryDuff]

I still think Ireland will emd up above Scotland. The jocks should have gone for the try bonus at the end.

 

[gavroche]

Happy, very happy! Hope it lasts.

 

[gavroche]

Well it didn't but I am proud of my boys. England didn't deserve to win but they did and that's it. Now, I am hoping Wales will do it against England.

Good teams win in style; great teams grind out ugly victories...

 

[swee'pea99]

All credit to France - to come to the lion's den and scare the lion half to death...

 

[Pro Tour Punditry]

Continuing my new approach - I reckon England will pump Scotland. Like a proper pumping.
