Default Six Nations

This might appeal to some of you more and hopefully won't end in handbags.

Anyone making it to any games?
Any predictions after round one?

I'm trying to find a way to get to England v Wales on Saturday as I'm back in the UK with work but means negotiating not seeing Mummy and Granny which will be borderline impossible. We'll see.

I still think England will win it, probably not a grand slam and will be tight but all depends on which squads can have the fewest injuries, as always.

England winners for me despite all the chat and veiled flirting..... Scotland seems like they have a lot to do especially as the Italians are no longer the guaranteed free points they once were. so those two battling it out for the wooden spoon leaving the Irish, Taffs and Frogs to piss about in the middle.

England are at home to Wales next and if they get a win it will allow them to kick on a bit.

Scotland shouldn't be whipping boys, I was surprised at how clinical Wales were and it was a shame Scotland couldn't get more points on the board.

Italy are still the whipping boys, even with Conor O'Shea (the legend), they're still shit.

Ireland for the overall win, though not a grand slam. Last game I think is England at Twickenham, which could be the decider.

This weekend, Ireland to hammer Italy, Wales to lose narrowly to England and France to lose to Scotland.

Having to settle for watching all the games in Barrel 12.
Saturday will be an interesting game...before last week there was a lot of talk of the injury list to both England and Wales, look how that turned out.

A bit predictable, but I think it will come down to England v Ireland on the last day. And as much it pains me to say it, I think Ireland will edge it.

I'm going to Eng vs France in Paris.

Prediction: going to be between Ireland, England and Wales. Wales look much better without Biggar and Warburton faster pace and creativity so my slight favourites unless Biggar comes back in which case Eng favourites as Ire game is at Twickers.

Ireland -33 points, Wales +12 points and Scotland to win (any score) = 4.1/1

Worth a flutter.

Nice

Ireland and Wales at Twickenham might be the difference that means England sneak a grand slam though...

True. Surprising really, injuries aside, they're not a bad side still. Scotland result flattered them though.
