I've been very impressed with Scotland, particularly the way they've fought back from behind. I think they'll be a much tougher test than any of England's opposition so far, and they might even sneak a win. Shame for them they're away from home.
Edit: Plus they've got the best national anthem.Last edited by Moose423956; 27 February 2017, 13:35.Comment

I reckon we'll see other teams doing that now, until there's a change in the rules.
Either way they got beat.Comment

Not sure what match a lot of people were watching but the Italian stunt worked for one half of rugby by virtue of the surprise element. Once it had been worked out they got thrashed 31-5 in the second half. If they try it again and teams are ready for it they are going to get battered. Plus, 7 of their points were off the back of a complete fluke.

England are a crap side. Saturday proved that. It would have been funny if they'd lost.
They've only been beating other teams because they've got a very good coach whos made them reach down and find their nadgers. Unfortunately, its not in the English rugby psyche to do that which is why they need a foreigner to help them.
Wales on the other hand always think they can beat anyone but insist on picking the same old crap.Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment
