Wales had flair, organisation and commitment, today - but, they lacked belief, in my opinion, ....

Wheras England today were just dire, they made far too many mistakes, I hope Ireland come out on top, rather than France.

Wales v France could be a very interesting game, the way both teams form can vary :)

Funnily enough I want Ireland to win too, but they also need to get their act together, was a shabby weekend of rugby.

I didn't see Ireland v Scotland, yesterday, but Scotland played badly, according to the report I read.

The only problem, is that when one team plays badly it takes away from the win by the other side. Saying England & Scotland played badly is probably not giving enough credit to France & Ireland.

But I will be cheering for a Welsh victory next week :tu:

Wales did their classic tactic of winning in the first half - having a rest on their laurels in half time and then losing in the second half

Bitterly dissapointed here - pass the slippers :D

well done Ireland for getting the Triple Crown is probably the most positive thing I can say about todays rugby....

Wales seemed to run out of steam in the last 10 minutes of their game & France took full advantage.

England improved a bit in the second half, but gave away far too much possession & were slow to recycle the ball, wheras the Irish were much quicker & that was complemented by a brilliant performance from their backs.

I didn't watch Scotland v Italy, but it was apparently a very entertaining game - Italy may be one to watch next year, they have improved a lot.

Oh and I suppose France should be congratulated on winning the championship....

Ireland Triple Crown Winners
 
Hey, anyone else overjoyed at Ireland beating the country that invented Rugger?

I have to admit, I am not bothered about Ireland winning. I don't follow Rugby.

Whoops, I am only after noticing the Sports sub-forum. I was puzzled about there was no six nations discussion!
