My memory is fine !!!
Quote :- "England is firm favourites to win this years 6 nations and good luck to them. Today though I will be supporting that fabulous Ireland team. Ireland always show flair and commitment".
We are allowed to change our minds as the tournament progresses and as my post above ( Copied ) confirms. that was before yesterday's match.
What you have copied in your post was my preferred list of winners in order of importance before the competition commenced. At that time there was no way of assessing how well each team would perform

What a game the England v Wales one is. I love watching Wales & England play, the Welsh are under so much pressure they're losing hope-now that takes some doing, putting Wales on the back foot. 2nd half-come on Wales, this game could be even better
hard
really but true.0 -
WOW..... what a game

Superb game. England in the 1st half was commanding, fast, obstructive. Wales in the 2nd half was inventive, fast, committed. What a game. England & Wales-Thankyou

I have to say, good win for England. We just did not turn up in first half and did not deserve to win.

I think that Eddie's substitutions will be questioned by others as to, were they really required? Imho they disrupted England, nearly causing a disaster for us. It just shows how much more work is needed to meld England into a team of world beaters. The
man of the match was rightly given to the young debutant, he has lots to offer, and under Mr Jones, should emerge as a world class player.as will a good few, more senior players. The team is on the right track, but still a work in progress. Lets not get carried
away, good wins so far against fair opposition, we're not world beaters yet but are on the way, thanks to Eddie and his positive thinking. Well done England, also well done Wales for making a game of it, I thought the match was quite gripping, good, entertaining
rugby, by both sides...0 -

Don't go into mourning you Taffs, look at the positives, what a comeback, that takes guts, determination and spirit. another five minutes may have proved crucial. Wales are on the up as well..

Should they manage to beat France tomorrow it will make their last match against Ireland interesting.

A sound performance from England, particularly Maro Itoje, this 21 year old excelled his years and in my opinion, set the pace for others to follow which proved to be so crucial for England in the first half. Wales really never had a look in to shout about.
Must say that in the last ten minutes, and England a man down, Wales turned the screw and provided some stunning plays. Overall a gripping and enjoyable encounter

Wales certainly stepped up the pace in the last 20 minuets. George North was causing England all sorts of problems. Thank goodness that France don't have a George North. I will stick my neck out here and say that we will beat France by 20 points next week.
If we get beat, I shall hide from this forum! Let's here your predictions please.0 -

Write your comments here...We shall do our best. Any France v Scotland game is a friendly game. Scotland and France are the members of the Auld Alliance. The last time I was at Murrayfield it was a France / Scotland match, I was sitting amongst hundreds
of French supporters and have never witnessed such sportsmanship and friendliness on the terracing as on that day. Every point scored by either team was applauded with handshakes all round at the end. Yes I hope it will be an exciting match and may the best
team on the day win.K

Excellent game France v Scotland, hard fought & deserved win for the Scots. Stuart Hoggs overhead tap to create a try was a stroke of genius-MOM? Well deserved. 6 nations Rugby at its finest again.

Thanks Scotland. Great win and well deserved by all accounts. England Champions, and hopefully the Grand Slam next Saturday.

Three players cited, should have been a fourth, the England second row the new boy on the block, every ruck he used his scrum cap to cause damage, why did the ref not spot this. This is not sour grapes from a proud Welshman as England deserved the win as

Admiral, the Welsh were not allowed to play. The England team shut them down on every turn. The Welsh team then picked themselves up & did the same back to England, that is what made it such a great game. To say the Welsh team 'did not turn up' is unfair
on a team of Welsh players who never give less than 100%, the Welsh are a joy to watch, & that is from a proud Englishman & Rugby lover. . . .Whoever plays.0 -

Don't understand how a scrum cap can be 'used' to cause damage! I saw no instance whatsoever of him deliberately using it as a weapon. How so?

He definatley kept using his head in nearly every ruck, I have played it back in slo-mo and this did happen, look out for it tomorrow v France
