If the green machine could show discipline, then England might worry. As it is though, England may well destroy them.

If I were you Darcy I would be more worried about your next game, Wales could beat Ireland if they dont improve.

Winning away in Dublin will be tough, England are far from being potential world cup winners yet, they need some creativity in midfield and more of a threat out wide. Foden is very good, Cueto is OK but the midfield and Ashton look poor when the ball goes wide. Ashton is obviously a threat down the middle but was awful in his lines of running when the ball came along the backs

The Welsh boys obviously weren't fed properly in Italy this weekend. Paul James (and Adam Jones) were munching away on whole chickens in Nandos as I passed earlier.

The Irish were very lucky to come away with a win.

The Scottish prop was carded after the scrum collapsed but it seems that Owens the ref didn't notice the Irish flanker who bored in at 90degrees to the scrum, collapsing it as a result. Result, 7 points to the Irish who went on to win by 3 points. Thank you Nigel! 🙄

Ireland would have won whatever.

"What's that lads? Another try? Ok, coming up".

Just heard I have a ticket for the game at the millenimum. Yay!

I'm sure that you've accused us Welsh boys of living in a dream world before now - have you caught some of that off us, I wonder? 😀

Ireland didn't have the ball in the last 15 minutes, did they?

Should be a good day out on Saturday - I last saw Ireland for the GS game in 2005. What a day!

I really hope you lose though... 😉

I was just messing really. We rode our luck. Funnily enough, when we really needed to not give away a penalty, we could do it. Just need to work on the other 65 minutes now. Bloody Munstermen giving them away all the time too.

I hope YOU lose. :mrgreen:

We're still going to lose, though.

I am 🙂 although it's a funny game. England should win by a few but if it's close it'll be uncomfortable to watch. Scotland have nothing to lose so they can go out and have a tilt at the Auld Enemy with no fear of failure.

Anyone seen the France Team vs Italy? Chabal at No.8 and Harinordoquy on the bench 😯

I prefer the Warren Gatland cut out and keep opposition team talk:

2011 Vol.4 – Ireland

Hello Ireland. My boys are playing you this weekend so here’s just a few well considered words to save your coach the bother of motivating you.

You are Cheats!

Everyone says so. I’m going to tell the Ref on you by spending this week bleating on about how you’re all murdering ball-killers and the enemies of rugby.

All my players Hate you!

There, I’ve said it. We had a vote on who we hated the most and you won. Well actually Ronan O’Gara won, but the rest of you came second.

Brian O’Driscoll is Mortal!

The angel Gabriel did not deliver unto Mrs O’Driscoll a child: He is a normal guy. Feed him and does he not shit? This means that we’re allowed to tackle him, and he’s not allowed to spend half the game telling the Ref what his opinion should be.

I’d rather listen to Sonja McLaughlan than U2!

That’s right, the soulless microphone harpie sounds better than Bono. She makes my eyes bleed but listening to the Edge’s patented doorbell sound makes me want to thumb my eyes out of their sockets.

You’re drug-dealers!

Everyone says when the Irish come to Cardiff, the crack is always good. Crack is not good. It is a highly addictive Class A narcotic and it is a criminal offence to bring it into the country. It ruins lives and drains valuable NHS, law-enforcement and Social Care resources. Leave the crack at home.

Of course not - something on the fan's forum about Glaws supporters actually sending him a get well card. Unfortunately could not get to what was the first technically anyway, sell out of the season but by all accounts it was a great atmosphere, even better than usual. This weekend its semi final weekend too 8)

I hope it doesn't happen but I reckon Scotland are going to get walloped at Twickenham...not even going to bother watching it as I'll be out and about.
