hambone Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 Got to be honest I didn't want them to join but now I admire them for their tenacity and trying and think the championship would be less without them 5 minutes ago, walshie said: I think it would be a fairer competition without Italy. The bonus point against them is a given. It's purely a case of how many points you can put on them. Apart from that, I genuinely feel sorry for them. Would you fancy turning up game after game knowing you were going to lose? Wales inAnd beating the 6 nations for the 5th year on the trot. Just in case you had forgotten. We all forget the bad results but kicking a host nation out of their own world cup is a sweet one to remember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackbird Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 (edited) I think next weekend is going to be very exciting Wales against France is going to be close but with North & Parks playing as they are & it’s in Cardiff Wales should win it. As for England v Ireland God only knows Ireland will be very confident of a win & after the interview Eddie Jones gave yesterday after they lost again he is a worried man three on a bounce & it’s p45 time therefore England will be desperate for a win. Roll on next weekend Edited March 11, 2018 by blackbird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These lads wouldn't understand league, too fast with proper tackling, bit like our lads find whenever they play the Oz's. But I still like union.

Retsdon Posted March 12, 2018 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 Given my geographical location and satellite feed, my normal dose these days is southern hemisphere superrugby. But sometimes I stumble across the Aviva premiership, and to be frank it's invariably a pretty turgid game. Basically it's just bash your way up the field - not much guile or imagination in the mix at all. And yet they always blame the national coach when this style of play, which is thd default English style when the chips are down, fails to answer. The national coach can only work with the players he has. There, that's it in a nutshell... . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mice! Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 Did a re tune on the tv last night and now have the channel free Sports 095, there has been BUCS Rugby on today, finals if university and college, earlier was under 15s, seen bits and pieces and it's quite good. Better than watching England lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
