According to some reports Brian has read this could be the last time we will hold the " 6 Nations " championship -- could become the 7 Nations with the possible addition of South Africa !! Another side that would not be upset if they can put on over on Engerland Engerland

That was a decent match and a deserved win for Ireland. I thought Wales might make a better fight of it but they just didn’t have it in them.🙁

It was a superb match👍🏻. Wales 1st game was excellent, this one not so much. Poor George North, he played like he’d just found out his birth parents were Irish🤷🏻♂️. Every player like every team play below par at some point.

I’d like to say that was a deserved win for England to take the Calcutta Cup……but I can't😟

Indeed it is, One, and England did it. Whether it was deserved, though, is another matter.
I'd take no notice of Freddy's off beat 'humour'. 😋

England did just about reserve it as Scotland did so very little with the ball, and made so many errors especially at the lineouts. I can't understand why they took that last penalty at goal instead of taking their chance at a lineout or even a scrum. Had they then scored a try they were in a position of possibly winning the game whereas with just the 3 points they could only draw.

JR,
I did not see if the bottle was beer, spirits, empty or part full -- the difference could mean a very serious injury like loss of an eye or just a bruise & a nasty shock.
What I have seen, though, in the run up to these matches this year is an increase in the pre-match jibes and threats from senior members of the coaching staffs -- WHO REALLY SHOULD KNOW BETTER !!

Brian,
I couldn't agree more and the current English coach seems to have this 'Antipedian' mentality of pre-match winding up the opposition (although he says it's in retaliation)
By all accounts, the bottle thrown was plastic, with beer in it. Irrespective of what it was, it's still a missile and should never have been thrown.
What is going on north of the border? First they (embarrassingly) threaten to sue the RFU at the World Cup, then there's dissension in the ranks with Mr Russell's fiasco, the altercation in the tunnel at Twickenham, then there's disrespecting the kicker (which also needs to be stamped out) and now this!
Much more of this and the police will put a ban on drinking inside Rugby stadiums!
Come on Scotland -get your act together!!

Hmm, I’m trying to work out if Italy have improved since earlier matches or if Scotland are not playing as well as they might. 🤔

Fabulous game! Wales A team (in blue aka France) vs Wales B team (in red) The only difference between the 2 sides? An Englishman who has turned the French into a 'force majeure'
On another note, is anyone else fed up with the biased comments of commentators on BBC? Eddie Butler, perhaps less so, but Jonathon Edwards? Dear me, time you went back in the stands with the supporters.

At least William Pollock McLaren (God rest his soul) remained impartial and was incredibly knowledgeable. Mr Edwards couldn't lace his boots, so to speak, and is also suffering from having been kicked in the nether regions a few too many times! The sherry glasses have to be moved from the sideboard for fear of his screeching!
