Scots will pick and go around the fringes, just like Embra.The hinge that they are starting would suggest that. It would be a rather foolish thing to be kicking down the tramlines given the size difference in the backs. I think they will try to see how fit the recent returnees are for Wales. Cross is also a better ball carrier than God’s prop. All I expect us to do is improve on last week. Wales are the best team in Britain just now, it would be nice to have as good a game as Ire/W last week,and the way Embra play is nothing if not exciting.

Rusty – being facetious

I wasn’t being serious myself TJ, as the suggestion of playing A Jones at wing might have hinted. (Although it’s an intriguing idea – they’d have to make the game a few hours longer to allow for his run to the tryline though)

Not seen much of jones the scot but will be suprised if hes faster than north who is by all accounts fastsr than 1/2p who is proper rapid himself.

AA – he is pretty nippy and a tough lad but a lot smaller than north- It will be interesting to see the matchup

I think the rugby this weekend should make for some good viewing. I hope that ireland can pull out a huge performance in France and get a result, but the head says that we will probably be well beaten by at least 10 points.

I think Italy England will be very close indeed with Italy getting the result by a couple of points. I was impressed by the way Italy approached the France game last week and tried to play a bit.

In Sundays game Wales will be too strong for Scotland and win by plenty.

What are your predictions?

England to beat italy by 10 or so by being disaplined and not giving daft penalties
wales to thrash scotland by 30ish then robinson resigns in disgrace and scotland get the coach they deserve and return as a 6 nations force
Ireland – france no idea hopefully ireland cos they’ll be livid at loosing to wales – game of the w/e

wales to thrash scotland by 30ish then robinson resigns in disgrace and scotland get the coach they deserve and return as a 6 nations force

dunno whether to look forward to that.

sometimes things have to get worse before they get better tj
IMO scotland have to get rid of robinson to move on G

England,Wales and France by about the 10 mark.

I think France will win and look the most impressive this weekend.

England v Italy to be very close. Less than 5 points between them at the end but not sure who will win.

Wales to beat Scotland, but Scotland will score a try…and i think it will be a back rower that does so.

Denton from halfway..however he will then be tested and found to contain Rhino DNA…which he will put down to Zimbabwian(sp) herbal medicine.

Welsh defence in training?

Shame to see there’s only 4 of us in the STW fantasy league. Any more takers? The PIN is 8664.

Yeah, I thought that might be more popular. Embarrasing that we couldn’t even match the number of nations.

Don’t think anyone joining now will get any points from last week though, so it’ll probably just be 4 now.

I don’t watch enough rugby for that stuff!

I have just sent a join request…I had a good first week!

I did ok too, thank you Rory best 🙂

Are any of the A games being shown tonight? If so what channel?

ijs445ra , just added you to the league. That was a good first week for you 🙂

I’ll join but a shocking week last week.

Diving back into the domestic game for a second nice one Ospreys unlucky TJ 😆

Edinburgh should have won that they threw it away 🙁

Is that the famed Edinburgh defence 😆 shoulda coulda woulda but you didnt 8)

Famed Edinburgh attack that let us down there

Nice to see a decent crowd at the arms park. Hopefuly a move back is going to happen. Shame Gavin wasnt released to play strange decision that.

A-A is a move likely? That would be great.

Apparently its on the cards. No one is going to games at cardiff city.

Its the same at the Liberty, meanwhile over the water the scablets are packing them in. The Gnoll or St Helens arent up to it though so I guess the Ospreys will stay at the vacuum of atmosphere.

Maybe he was released…just not picked!!!

Tom james played in the centre, he lacks passing ability for a winger. None of the wales squad were released this week, gavin played last week.

Sonny Bill won the NZ heavyweight boxing championship in the week 🙄 the guy he stopped in the first round looked like a tub of lard even for journeymen heavyweight boxers.

Most intrest is will the snow melt

Sonny Bill. Sigh.

Shocking kicking so far, but the Italian forwards are looking keen

Not a particularly exciting game really – surprised the english scrum has held up as well as it has to be honest.

Going to be close – neither side looks like scoring a try

Hmmm I was wrong – lot of mistakes there!

The italians are holding on to players at every breakdown

And another try!! 😀

Self destruct button!
