Apology accepted but they need to do better.

Now Wales vs Ireland.

How good would it be if Wales can pull off a win here?

 

[RunningFromFat]

Ireland destroying wales, sigh, boring match

Wales not even trying to put up a fight.

@Creag, you still sober? What a win for the humble Scots!

Hell, what a game that was?!! Duhan was in the mood!! Unreal 1st try!!! One of the best individual test tries you'll ever see!

What a cracker it was, but I had to be scraped off the ceiling after his second one. What a match that was. Ecstatic.

Been seeing on my socials since yesterday the replays of Duhan's try.

Very Scottish name Duhan van der Merwe

Italy v France now. I think France will be too strong but hey if the Six nations u20 is anything to go by it might be a tight game.

What a game! And soberness was the last thing I worried about

 

[Werner1975]

Too easy for Ireland, great win for the Scots and France survived in Rome.
Stormers just too much for the Sharks to handle.

 

[Werner1975]

Yeah. I backed them for the win but I probably should have waited for the team sheet before making my pick. Where the Boks?

Boks were omitted as part of a resting protocol.

Current world rankings after this weekend's 6N matches. Scotland on the rise and England on the way down.



A loss to the likes of Ireland or France could conceivably see them slip below Australia. Ireland vs France will be a fight for top spot then.

Irish commentators continuously mentioned it after they scored so quick. It tends to happen if you are the best in the world blah blah. Lol

So tell me are you the best in the world if you are ranked #1 on the rankings or by holding the world cup?

It can work against them in big matches, extra pressure being the 'Worlds #1 team" etc...

What is Scotland lose to the likes of Ireland France, could they also start a downward trend and slip below Aus?

TBh, all I saw was a comedy of errors by an inept England team right from that aimless, thoughtless kick straight down Scotlands throat gifting them a ridiculous platform to attack from with ease into an England defense entirely in disarray and whatnot.

I'm using that vid to coach the kids on how NOT to kick/defend/tackle, not for anything special shown by the attack
