Mixed loyalties from me (after the ABs of course ) - Though my Dad (the Englishman living in North Wales) has escaped his customary 'hiding in his study' by taking my (Welsh) Mum on holiday to South Africa.
A trip from which they'll be bringing me another rugby shirt for my collection or they'll not be returning.

The England side had improved, but not by enough I don't think, Ireland certainly have it on team playing, but well - the Welsh are just to goddamn stubborn to admit the Irish are stonger on paper and so may just end up stronger on the grass.

Ireland are obviously the team to beat - probably the 2nd best team in the world at the moment.

So, I'll have to go for an Ireland win.

However, I don't think they'll take a Grand Slam - 1 mediocre game will spoil it for them - hopefully against England !!

Just taken a look at the Paddy Power betting odds - tempted to have a little flutter on Sébastien Chabal as Man of the Match (Italy v France) at 12-1 - the way he's been playing recently is just awesome !!

Can't believe they've got Johnny Wilkinson at 3-1 (England v Scotland) - far more likely to be one of the forwards I'd have thought.

And knowing the Scotts if they dont win at the very least they will be gunning to make an example of Johnny - no doubt he will be expecting some big hits.

I have a feeling that winners on Sunday will win the whole thing..........

I also think that Italy might beat both England and Scotland, meaning the Calcutta Cup could be made of wood this year.

Why do England keep persevering with Jonny Wilkinson? Another in a long line of boring kicking fly halves. England have some great backs, but hardly ever use them.

Well said.
Thats all he has in his locker..a kicking game...how many times does he sell outrageous dummies fooling the opposition or side step his way through a defence to break the gain line?
He'll probably pull a hamstring pulling his socks up

I hope Gavin Henson plays for Wales at some point...wanna see him get dumped on his **** and smashed big time...pompous smug ****

Rant over...carry on you very very nice people
