Westley Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 I read somewhere yesterday, that some 'expert' or other has declared that letting children play rugby is akin to 'Child Abuse' ! 🙄 Now making them watch it, is something else again ! 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKD Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 Always look forward to the 6 Nations, and this opener didn't disappoint. A good solid performance by Ireland,,,, very disjointed with bad discipline from France 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokingdragon Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 I'm interested to see how the new young Welsh team play - could be 'character building' - i hope not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 One of the most impressive wins in the history of the six nations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

France didn't help themselves but Ireland were great, just shows how good their squad was. A fantastic win in France when all the crowd is against you. 3 hours ago, TIGHTCHOKE said: The important match is this afternoon in Rome. 😅😅😅 I really wanted to see England put out a fresh attacking team, after all its just Italy. But then they've named Ford at 10 🙄 same old... Wales v Scotland should really show where those two are at 💪💪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given how many experienced players are missing through injury or just unavailable, a completely rooky team would have been a huge risk. We're the only team with an unblemished record against Italy, it'd be nice to keep that going! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at England's front row now, Cole and Marler, I know Cole has just come on, but surely we have younger fellas coming through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbie to this Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 That was not a good showing, but a win is a win Italy are certainly not a pushover anymore, or were England just that bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 Well a win is a win, but not very convincing was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjpainter Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 We've had two matches and we already know who will finish first, second and sixth. A really poor all round display from England. Italy make way too many mistakes to trouble any team that actually knows how to play rugby, so I'm pretty sure Wales will beat them. So it's all about who will finish third to fifth. Not an inspiring competition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKD Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 Yes, England were poor and not convincing, but there are quite a few new names in the squad trying to gel and fit in with very experienced players. POTM in his England debut. Rebuilding is going on,,,, give them a break 🤭😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked like they'd had a few days together not weeks, then loads of changes at the end always makes a mess of things. 53 minutes ago, derbyduck said: there was only Marler when I posted , then along came old king Cole LOL.
