France did well, as the Italians were playing the Irish |

Yeah, the good old Scots can always be relied upon to make us feel better about our own weak performance, by truly dreadful ball handling

Had to laugh at the Wales V scotland game on now, The Welsh team were led out by a regimental goat, wise thinking that by the Wales coach as the site of a goats rear end is plenty enough incentive for the average Welshman to get out in to the field with his loins girded for action Looks like it did the Trick too, Wales are nearly home and dry.

I expect to France to stuff Ireland in about 8 minutes time, leaving them in contention with Italy for the wooden spoon.

it's a shame as 25/30 years ago, Ireland would have spanked any team...
Although I'm part of the ol' skool, I still think it should be the 4 nations only... (we'd have a better chance of winning!)

Yeah, or at least a reasonable chance of finishing 4th

teehee
so very true, back in the day we were shite, only been since the mid 90s we've started to improve, but what with the General and Robinson both now in retirement from International level, could be a while before we start to see some proper rugby again!

England have turned in to how Wales USED to be, one match brilliant, the next inept. mind you, hats off to the scots for keeping to a level of banality with such consistancy over such an extended period of time.

I'm sure with the right squad and coach, Scotland could be good, I mean a few caber tossers in the team as props wouldn't go a miss, a few thieving pikeys (that are used to short, sharp sudden runs) from Glasgow as wingers and you nearly have a perfect team!
