STW 2014/15 Rugby Thread

Ireland doing a great job tbf
scotland poor.

Scotland really are crap – the wooden spoon beckons.

Scotland really are crap – the wooden spoon beckons.

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.

So, if Ireland win by 21+ what does that do to England’s task?

game over, man, game over!

The dream just ended 😥
Nice one Scotland 🙄

Never trust the Scots 😉

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.

Great performance by the Irish pack today. SOB, POC and Heaslip all immense.

Well, that’s France and Wales out of the game – can England do enough?

Heaslips championship winning tackle – brilliant?

England need 26+ points.
Ireland 6N champions 2015 I think we can all agree?

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

+1

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.

Doesn’t feel like rugby, more like 20-20 cricket.

I’ve been sat on my arse watching rugby for 4 hours – done sod all else all day.
Now there’s another one to watch – bah!

Rascal +1 ish.

Trying to placate the boss my doing sedentary odd jobs while watching! After 3 sets of tennis earlier too!!

Great afternoon so far. I hope England can keep the spirit alive now.

6 nations makes my bike rusty – great stuff though

I wonder what the odds were on England coming 4th this morning 🙂

And isn’t drinking in the afternoon great 😀

I’m halfway to watching this game through one bleary eye!

Tesco’s offers on real ale are killing my liver – but I LOVE super Saturday!

The folk north of Hadrians Wall 🙄 really?? Pffttt

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

loum, does that make England the underdogs? Does it, does it? 😆

😀 loum, we both made/make money from knowing when odds/prices are getting favourites/events wrong!!! 😉

Allez les blancs!!!

“Steve Walsh has retired from reffing”

Get the **** in!!! Has to be a story to that though!!!!

C’mon

Ffs France…where was that pass going?

Only 20 more needed!

Any brown envelopes been passed today!!!!

Worst French side I can remember!

England by 35!

Stop knocking on!!!!

..and it starts.

Oh la la 😆
