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

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

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.

Not even one

No offence to trev and other english posters btw

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]

[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

 

[Guest77]

Yeah I agree Trev, a brilliant day for rugby, all 3 matches were great, the last was incredible, I doubt we will ever see a match like that again.

 

[ian.settle1]

England, Ireland and Wales play like they did today in the world cup, the southern teams will wonder whats hit them

 

[rapparee]

It was an unbelievable day of rugby and the english were great on the attack, but both sides were disasterous at defence. The best bit of play for me in the whole tournament was the wales v ireland game. Ireland had a 32 phases attack against the welsh and still they held out. They should have taken the 3 points many times in that game.

 

[Guest77]

Wales were better than the Irish in that game and deserved the win IMO.

 

[Nolnoc]

As an Irishman I am delighted, but rugby won big time yesterday and I wouldn't have begrudged England had they done it. Not winning the tournament will stand to England for the world cup.
I really hope Ireland let loose in the world cup. I feel they can be a bit uptight. After a bad six nations it turned out to be the greatest day of rugby ever.
Stick a few quid on Ireland and England to meet in the semi final at Twickenham.... How we love beating the beans at Twickenham

 

[Guest77]

I agree Ireland are a very very good side, however I doubt they will beat wales, england or any of the southern hemisphere sides in the rugby world cup, we are at home, that is worth 10 points to start with before kick off.

 

[Nolnoc]

I know mate. I said England will win the world cup before the six nations and I still believe it. But not winning the slam is good for them. You know what the English media can be like and the weight that comes with that. If we had Sean Obrien right we would have beat Wales I think. He's only coming back right now and will be flying come world cup.

I'm not naive to think we can win it but no opposition is going to see us as an easy match.

 

[Guest77]

I agree about the English media bud, they are appalling, they are half the reason most scots, welsh and Irish dislike us English, I dislike our press myself.
