What kind of dribble was that England.
France were very good,although the opposition were woeful

Haven’t seen the matches but apparently England were awful.

Beating Ireland just papering over the cracks for Wales. For most of that game you'd think we were the ones a man down.

Like Cyprus 24 wins in a row record. Doesn't count!

Actually I found it a bit boring. Wales play a very boring style,

[vino_93 Profile]

Wales is boring, but the game was quite enjoyable. Anyway, Scotland is the perfect team to lose a game they should easily won ...

Italy didn't did bad against England. Like last week vs France, they play well offensively. But they weren't lucky at all ... they should have lost by approx 10, not that much (and England is very bad offensively ...).

France vs Ireland was a bore fest. it was a struggle to get through it.

Yes, boring game. Too much kicking.

Saying that was a poor game is ridiculous however much your disdain towards the Six Nations. Both yesterday Wales V Scotland & today Ireland V France had moments of absolute class and excitement, being a 1 & 2 point games. Kicking is an issue right across Rugby however it didn’t spoil the game an inch.

Viewing figures for the six nations are very good and bodes well for the game as a whole. Remember World Cup TV money comes mainly from the U.K. & France, quite simply the game needs the money and we should get behind all tournaments.
