[eddieboy]

I thought the welsh would win to be honest. What a game.

 

[Guest77]

[Pete999]

I suppose being from Glos you have split loyalties, only kidding mate, see the Irish and France won their respective games bet it will be a decider between England and France.

 

[Leesparkykent]

Gasp that hurt Pete, really hurt lol, joking aside the wife is Welsh so your not far off the Mark.

 

[Guest77]

Boring actually, England totally dominated the game, they even edged the first half although they were behind at half time, the second half was one sided, the Welsh didn't turn up at all and looked like wooden spoon material if were all honest.

 

[Guest77]

Well that wasn't part of the Welsh script good omen in World Cup year

They started whinging about the roof being open, that said it all IMO, they were outclassed, end of lol

Decider for what.... 2nd/3rd place? Both england and france have to come to lansdowne road.

England will destroy the Irish, I bet they get 4 tries there, the French may just lose or just win, it will be tight, I think the Welsh will beat the Irish as well, they will get 3rd spot IMO.

We'll have to wait and see.

 

[Guest77]

Can't wait for the weekend, come on England stuff the White flag brigade.

 

[Pete999]

Let's not be toooo complacent, but yeah stuff em good

 

[Guest77]

The Italian forwards are awsome, the problem is they usually get exhausted by the hour mark, I am confident we will pinch it, it will be close though I reckon.

You are right no such thing as a week team these days, all the players are playing each other week in week out

 

[Des 56]

Well,we were hammered by the English last match (I saw it coming even though we took an early lead)I hope we turn out for this next match or yet another long day is on the horizon

England 22 Italy 6 Italy will compete well for 60 mins
Ireland 15 France 9 Ireland to edge a close match late on
Scotland 17 Wales 13 Scotland to take an early lead and hang on towards the end

Ireland will win the championship

 

[Guest77]

England 32 Italy 16
Ireland 10 France 19
Scotland 17 Wales 33

England will win the championship

corrected that for you Desmond lol

 

[Des 56]

England will win the championship

corrected that for you Desmond lol

Maybe not because the reserves played well against us,however, the first team will have to be available to tame the Irish

 

[rapparee]

corrected that for you Desmond lol

He was right the first time

 

[Guest77]

England vs Italy, I was slightly wrong but------------------

MDJ 1 the rest of the Forum 0 :biggrin:

Des forecast
England 22 (47) Italy 6 (7)

Ireland 15(18) France 9 (11)

cough, cough,if we are not going to win this championship we sure are leading the forecasting grand slam lol

 

[trev]

I need Wales to win today for Ladbrokes to pay out on my treble

 

[trev]

Well they paid out, the princely sum of £2.47 plus my stake money ofc.

 

[rapparee]

Well they paid out, the princely sum of £2.47 plus my stake money ofc.

You'll probably take tomorrow off to celebrate.

 

[rapparee]

L'Italia s'è desta

Scotland made hard work of that

 

[Guest77]

Well the terrorists are up 12-3 at 50 mins, and to be fair they deserve to be ahead.

 

[Guest77]

The terrorists have scored again, we are humiliated, 20-3 down after 52 mins, I can see no way back for the english now.

 

[trev]

Paddy was just simply better today. It's their championship this year

 

[rapparee]

Terrorists? One man's terrorist is an other man's freedom fighter.:rifle::gunsmilie::63::dita::clover:

Not even one

No offence to trev and other english posters btw

 

[trev]

None taken mate, I didn't believe Mike anyway.

Other than the All Blacks,Irish rugby, provinces and national, is easily the best for pure enjoyment

When their pro 12 sides play each other you can feel the passion and support for both sides at the packed stadiums
When it comes to their national side, its by far the most enjoyable side to watch
The talent and the passion of the players and their supporters is points in the bag even before they kick off

Years ago we.ourselves used to play with tricky slippery talented players,but that has changed so much
All we are now is battering rams and hopefully more powerful rams than the other guys,its not our traditional way to play rugby even though we have won grand slams this way

Ireland will certainly win the championship and maybe with a grand slam

England will beat the French and will become (in the eyes of their supporters once again after a solitary win)world beaters (or so they will once again believe)
One win or one championship is just a step in the right direction when it comes to world rugby

Wales will win at least one more game,it will be enough for us to persevere with battering ram rugby

 

[Guest77]

England were terrible yesterday, I can't see them beating the french with that performance to be fair Des, world beaters? world chumps more like, if they put it together they can play well, yesterday they were awful, I didn't think the Irish were great either, if they up their game a bit they will do well in the world cup. The ref had a shocker as well to be fair, he looked out of his depth, Ireland were offside more times than I have seen in a match for a long time= sour grapes lol

 

[rapparee]

Come on france

 

[Guest77]

Well like the Irish they are enemies of the English, Well done Wales today, a great performance.

 

[Pete999]

Come on france

Wash yer mouth you garlic lovin traitor

 

[rapparee]

 

[ian.settle1]

Wash yer mouth you garlic lovin traitor

He's Irish

 

[rapparee]

Wash yer mouth you garlic lovin traitor

Even though i had garlic chicken for my tea, i serve neither king nor kaiser so i am no traitor

 

[rapparee]

 

[Guest77]

Lets be frank paddy, to score 55 points against France is just unprecidented, when did France last concede 55 points? England were very unlucky, that said my team of the six nations were Wales, brilliant performances, they were unlucky, and I say that as an Englishman, walees= you were the best team IMO in the tournament.

 

[trev]

3 great games this afternoon. I'm bleeding knackered just watching them
