Re: Six Nations Rugby
Wales had flair, organisation and commitment, today - but, they lacked belief, in my opinion, ....

Re: Six Nations Rugby
Wheras England today were just dire, they made far too many mistakes, I hope Ireland come out on top, rather than France.
Wales v France could be a very interesting game, the way both teams form can vary

Re: Six Nations Rugby
Funnily enough I want Ireland to win too, but they also need to get their act together, was a shabby weekend of rugby.

I didn't see Ireland v Scotland, yesterday, but Scotland played badly, according to the report I read.
The only problem, is that when one team plays badly it takes away from the win by the other side. Saying England & Scotland played badly is probably not giving enough credit to France & Ireland.
But I will be cheering for a Welsh victory next week

Re: Six Nations Rugby
Wales did their classic tactic of winning in the first half - having a rest on their laurels in half time and then losing in the second half
Bitterly dissapointed here - pass the slippers

Re: Six Nations Rugby
well done Ireland for getting the Triple Crown is probably the most positive thing I can say about todays rugby....
Wales seemed to run out of steam in the last 10 minutes of their game & France took full advantage.
England improved a bit in the second half, but gave away far too much possession & were slow to recycle the ball, wheras the Irish were much quicker & that was complemented by a brilliant performance from their backs.
I didn't watch Scotland v Italy, but it was apparently a very entertaining game - Italy may be one to watch next year, they have improved a lot.
Oh and I suppose France should be congratulated on winning the championship....

Re: Ireland Triple Crown Winners
I have to admit, I am not bothered about Ireland winning. I don't follow Rugby.

Re: Ireland Triple Crown Winners
Whoops, I am only after noticing the Sports sub-forum. I was puzzled about there was no six nations discussion!
