England "form" looking good now
Italy not so "easy" are they? |
|
By:
scrums a yawn
|
|
By:
1 min 30 secs for that scrum at this stage of the game. Joke
|
|
By:
And the clock stops 10 secs after they go to make the subs
|
|
By:
Big 5 mins now for Ireland, Italy and France.
French are 23pts behind Ireland on points difference, so currently need to beat Scotland by 19pts to avoid the wooden spoon. |
|
By:
Already a minute for this scrum...
|
|
By:
Scotland and Wales played ok against Italy ... whoever included all UK teams ... in their 'why do all UK teams struggle against Italy'
|
|
By:
The Welsh victory looks better form than Englands as that was in Rome.
|
|
By:
Ireland have made Italy look good anyway.
|
|
By:
Wales were far from as convincing as 14pt win suggests, which leaves Scotland as the only team to convincingly win against Italy. Now there's an oddity.
|

Did Murray just attack Canale off the ball?
|
|
By:
What a cracking bet my Ire overs on tries was
 |
|
By:
Scotland and England played them both at home though.
|
|
By:
if Italy were accurate they could have won by 15-20
Injuries continue to dog Ireland |
|
By:
Wales were playing away RM
and I said 'OK' not convincingly  |
|
By:
Wales didnt have to play against Parisse either RM
|
|
By:
wd sewter
 |
|
By:
I will settle for OK
 Home or away, Italy used to get spanked by everyone and that isn't the case any more. If they find a competent 10 they could find themselves winning plenty more. |

By:
who's bod?
|
|
By:
Well, let's hope France hammer Scotland so that Ireland finish last and Kindey definitely gets the sack.
|
|
By:
I think Kidney will get the sack anyway. That is easily Ire's worst ever 6 Nations.
|
|
By:
actually RM they may have received the occasional spanking but the Racing Post did well at tipping Italy on the h'c. which is a sign they were underestimated a while back.
|

By:
your nephew Uncle Nasty ?
|
|
By:
France need 16pts dont they? Actually 16pts plus 2 tries, or 17pts I think.
|
|
By:
Hmm that -12 cap looks tasty now. How is the weather in France anyone?
|
|
By:
Looked ok on the sites I checked. There were a lot of rumours of rain though so I imagine it's a case of when it starts.
|
|
By:
Pissing rain in Paris I believe MB so I would hold fire if I were you...
|
|
By:
Cheers both. If the weather is ok I fancy the Frenchies big time now. Scotland been backpedalling since the Italian game.
|
|
By:
Haven't found anything better, but this http://www.weather-forecast.com/locations/Paris/forecasts/latest
suggests that if it hasn't started then there could well be rain by 8pm. |
|
By:
Back to that game and the one positive for Ireland was Ian Madigan. He simply has to be involved going forward. The only player in the backline other than a fit Sexton who can make things happen.
|
|
By:
I too think it will be a wet game
|
|
By:
Will get plenty of chances now you would think RW. D'Arcy and BOD are definitely going, Sexton needs back-up. Trouble for Madigan is that he needs to get club games first.
|
|
By:
If Kearney keeps playing like a tart they could put Madigan at 15 to start with.
|
|
By:
Who got man of the match, BBC didn't say
|
|
By:
No idea, their default is always Parisse, but if Italians were picking it Lo Cicero would be odds-on.
|
|
By:
That's what I thought but then they took him off early
|
|
By:
Got me curious now, but I can't find anything about it.
|
|
By:
Parisse would have got it as usual but for the fact he was sin-binned. Lo Cicero would have been the nostalgic vote
|

Just found out Alessandra Zanni Man of the Match
