Italy are utterly clueless at the moment. I'm giving the tournament to Wales.

Good stuff by Wales.

This means Ireland can't win the 6N by kicking it in the air and running after and England can't win it unless they do something special - which they won't.

Come on Wales!

Agreed, an England win isn't a formality by any means and will be by a small margin in the event of a victory. Championship depends which Irish and Scottish teams turn up. Hard to believe it was 13-14 at half time.

Just lead to an interesting afternoon now, both Ireland and England are going to have to go balls out to catch them at point difference! Ireland will actually have to chase tries!

So, putting Ireland to one side for one moment, do England have to beat the points difference or match it to win the championship? Does the England vs Wales result count?

England have to win by more than 16, Ireland by more than 20 points.
Big ask from both teams & Scotland won't want a big woods spoon so will be tough to beat in Edinburgh.
Not been this tight for years I think!

brilliant. Now the 6N champs have to have really gone out and won it today. What drama!!!

Why are we sending pro rugby players out holding kids hands. It's rugby...???

Lots of props in the Irish team! but why have the numbers the wrong way round??

#martinhutch..

Doesn't it go to tries scored after PD? I may be making that up. I'm fairly certain that the result of the game against each other doesn't affect anything?

Scotland appear to be channeling Italy now.

Wales have got time to get back and receive it at Twickers at the end of the England game. Can't see a problem with that. 😀

The spoon has been well and truly theirs for the last half hour. It's a slotted spoon judging by the holes in their defence.

Just hope they can 'stir' themselves into action and actually chop Ireland's winning margin to less than 20 points!

Went to a wee job as Ire/Sco kicked off, wishing I'd put a tenner on Wales at 8/1. Not so much now.

I can only assume that the Scots hate England so much that they are deliberately losing the game to spoil England's championship. Mind you, they are so utterly inept that if they set out to do that they might accidentally have won the match. 😆

Certainly that would have been an unpopular try all the way around Murrayfield.

A new twist on a butchered try costing England! BH, Scotland..,.

Andy Nicolls HT optimist looking even sillier now. Time for a new pundit?

And a little bonus from Scotland to finish. Typical.... 😉 edit - phew.

Well played Ireland.

After the two games so far today, I wouldn't bet against anything. England to win by 27? Anything is possible. 🙂

If France play as well as Italy/Scotland - who knows!! It was good to see Wales & Ireland going for it - I only hope England do the same.

True. And it's 5/1 at the moment. Best odds on England all day.
Ireland got out to 9/1 during the second half of the Wales match.
That was the time to back them. 🙂

Ireland are 1/4 now.
That makes them favourites now.
(For thm and jambalayas' benefit - who seem to have a different understanding of the term 😉 )

Wales were out to 14/1 at the second half. What were they by the end of their game? (If you were keeping an eye on them?)

Currently on Cava, not quite sure why. Can't see France capitulating, will be close as ever. To be fair there has been some great play from Ireland and Wales today, not quite sure if the English psyche is as unencumbered
