SuperMikey Posted 4 February, 2011 Posted 4 February, 2011 Starts tonight, Wales vs England k/o at 7.45pm. Actually really looking forward to this series, it ought to be an interesting one! From a Scotland fan's perspective, we've improved under Andy Robinson and can probably take a few scalps, starting with France on Saturday (hopefully). We just need to learn how to score tries though Predictions for Wales vs England? I'm going for 33-17 to Wales.
Dimond Geezer Posted 4 February, 2011 Posted 4 February, 2011 I'm looking forward to it as well. I think we (England) have a good chance of winning the whole thing, hopefully with a grand slam. So I'll go 23-13 to England.
JackFrost Posted 4 February, 2011 Posted 4 February, 2011 I'll start the "How long will it take Brian Moore to moan about a crooked feed into the scrum" sweepstake 18 mins
Lets B Avenue Posted 4 February, 2011 Posted 4 February, 2011 TBF. He's absolutely right. Its not Rugby League is it?

dubai_phil Posted 4 February, 2011 Posted 4 February, 2011 Arrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh Just found out it isn't on the Satellite provider that I have had for the past 8 years and that 80% of all rugby fans here have Great work IRB, nobody here wil be watching but you made extra money Morons
trousers Posted 4 February, 2011 Posted 4 February, 2011 I reckon it'll be a 0-0 draw. No, that's tomorrow's Saints game silly ;-)
SuperMikey Posted 5 February, 2011 Author Posted 5 February, 2011 Ireland making a lot of silly errors, that could cost them the game. Still only 15 minutes in though, Italy 3-0 up.
JackFrost Posted 5 February, 2011 Posted 5 February, 2011 O'Gara rescued the Irish from going down to Italy. France too strong for the Scots
SuperMikey Posted 5 February, 2011 Author Posted 5 February, 2011 Ireland were exceedingly lucky to win that one, I thought Italy had just done enough to merit their last try, which would have won them the game. Both teams made a lot of errors and I think Ireland were slightly complacent, not good when you're up against an organised side like Italy. If Italy's kicking had been better then they would've had it in the bag, but they missed a few penalties and lost 9 potentially match-winning points. The Scotland vs France game was a cracker. France were on excellent form, their forwards are just unstoppable when they get going. Given that Scotland have got a huge pack it's a real credit to France that time and time again they turned over the ball from scrums and bullied Scotland on set-pieces - usually where we excel. Think AR got this one slightly wrong, Blair should have started and the same for Lamont. When Blair came on our attacking was far more organised and the passing was more intelligent, and Lamont gave us that burst of pace you get from a fresh forward late in the second half, and he took his try very well. Encouraging sides for us Scotland fans, and I think we can beat Wales next weekend. Home game, big crowd, we're high on confidence after a good performance today and have a point to prove in this tournament. Wales looked slightly lethargic against England and aren't particularly confident, although they do have the bonus of having quick wingers, something that we struggled with against France today. Having seen all of the teams in the tournament play now, I reckon France are on course to win the title. It's early days I know, but they were outstanding today and I can only see England beating them, but even then it will be very close-run. Hopefully us Scots won't finish last this year!
SuperMikey Posted 5 February, 2011 Author Posted 5 February, 2011 Also - Gray and Ansbro were great for Scotland today, surely the future of Scottish rugby!
Dimond Geezer Posted 25 February, 2011 Posted 25 February, 2011 England v France tomorrow, I'm looking forward to this immensely. I think it will be close, but we'll scrape it by 3 points, then the Grand Slam is ours - onwards to world domination. Will be back from SMS for the second half, but not sure whether to watch the 2nd half live or rewind & watch from the start, probably the latter.
