Any views on tomorrow's games and the competition as a whole?
 
I can watch it from my bedroom window.
10 yards from Twickenham.

Shame i think Rugby's shit.
 
2 points in the ireland france game with 25 minutes to go.

Shaping up for a cracking finish. COME ON IRELAND!!!!!!!

France should win

but they couldnt overcome the might of ireland:D

and for once we dont have to say that we beat them cos france underperformed or had a weak team out as that is just untrue, one of the rare occasions we play better than france on the day
 
Now that England rugby team really is shite. Italy played a fecking forward as scrum half and England still struggled. That Bothwick couldn't even make a dent in a packet of butter. Even I would deck him.
 
Get in there Ireland!...... Well done, great performance all round in whipping the French. great to see BOD & Darcy back in form. .... Hopefully, this will be the year when we finally win the 6 Nations, to add to our recent 3 triple crowns!
Fair play to Declan kidney, keeping his gameplan simple & effective.
 
Ireland looked superb yesterday. They do have a great chance of going on and winning the Six Nations but I always think there is one really bad performance in them every year that will cost them the title. Jamie Heaslip and Brian O'Driscoll were fantastic. And it wasn't as if France underperformed, they were class at times. Wales look very strong and are rightly favourites.

Fully agree !
 
Why does that fecking commentator keep saying 16-6-nil during the france scos game??

It doesnt make sense you spastic and u have said it at least twice now!!!
 
Johnsons doing a great job isnt he :lol: delighted for the fecker
 
From the minute they appointed him I had a feeling Johnson would crash and burn... I know he hasnt done yet but to name an international coach with no experience is crazy... Gatland even came out after the game and said they knew what to expect after what Johnson had been saying prematch... very naive
 
I thought England did pretty well yesterday.

Was expecting Wales to rip them to pieces, but there wasn't that much between them really. Too much pointless kicking from England, as usual, but couldn't really fault them otherwise.

Wales are just better than them, mostly due to being Welsh.
 
I thought England should have won that game. But they gave away too many penalties. The England backs had more pace than the Welsh. Wales got away with that one.

It won't be as easy as it was against France. They left themselves open by not playing a proper out-half, and using a more open, drift defence. When we play Wales particularly they won't allow us that time, so it will be interesting to see how we cope with having very little space to work in.

Hopefully we'll still be able to play open rugby, but Kidney tends to resort to type when the chips are down. When the going gets tough you tend to see Thomond rugby being played.
 
Yeah, when England got it right Wales didn't really deal with the backs at all. Cost them one try and would have resulted in another if it weren't for the ball bouncing out of Sackey's path.

Wales were far better with the ball in hand than England though, and when they did kick it, it was usually with far more purpose. Most of England's kicking was just to relieve the pressure. The penalties weren't really indicipline. Wales kept swamping England in the ruck and players were clinging to the ball in desperation.

Wales are a better side than England, but you can't fault England for their attitude. Thought it was a great game overall.
 
fecking Massi.......stupid cnut almost takes the neck off Rob Carney :nono:

Shocking high tackle that warranted a red card. Bloody yellow card for that ?
 
Ireland giving away stupid penalties. 3 - 0 as it stands with Italy looking to grab another 3 points
 
feckin hell Italy are playing the right game. A beauty of a kick from their 22 right up to the corner flag
 
TRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get the feck in. Tommy Bowe

Italy in posession, ball intercepted. Ran from the half way line. Lovely!!

Converted. 6 - 7 thank you very much

Should have been a straight red that. He fecking nearly decapitated him.

Got the lead now, hope we pull away. The whops are making it difficult though, not going to be as easy as some might think.
 
We never looks as comfortable playing against weaker teams that force us to set the tone rather than reacting to the opposition. Hopefully we can start getting a bit of quality possession in or around the 3/4.
 
feckin hell that was lucky Italy didn't get the interception.

O' Gara gets a yellow

Penatly Italy
