6 Nations 2013

Lancaster leaves Tuilagi out and keeps Barritt in, hmm.

Tuilagi's clearly not quite fit, Barritt has been doing well too but it would be harsh to drop him when Manu hasn't played for a month and he's had a good game against Scotland.

I agree mate. Manu is a beast but he's not had much game time so he'll probably get 20 mins or so depending on how its going. Not a bad impact sub !!

No bugger is really interested in it down here and most wouldn't get off their arses if they had free tickets for their local club and that's reflected in attendances for regional rugby in Wales. It's only internationals that everybody's interested in. A bit like xmas really in that everyone celebrates a christian event but no fucker goes to church for the rest of the year. There again it's our national sport if you believe the Welsh media. South Wales police have even set up domestic violence units on match days because of the scale of the problem with blokes giving the missus a slap and a couple of years ago the England team coach was bottled in Cardiff. It's like the wild west in the pubs where I live in the night after a game. Right, now I've got that off my chest I'm going to get ready to give the missus a right hander when Wales lose.

I'd like to see Twelvetrees/Tuilagi at some point.

So would I. If he brings Tuilagi on as a sub, he'll take Barrit off in my opinion. He's seen Barrit and Tuilagi plenty of times. I suppose it all depends on the score at the time and injuries etc

Now that was better :-) Glad the welsh lads had a look at themselves and gave Howley a performance he deserved. Shame city blew my cheeky6/1 double.

 

[SWP's back]

Looking forward to today's game.

It's been a wet old morning in Dublin according to the mother could make thing's very interesting.Even though he is'nt captain I hope it's a 'Let's do it for the Kipper' performance from Ireland.

Brilliant atmosphere. Perfect antidote to the last 24 hours. Come on England!

Personally I cant see the point of this sport, especially when its kicked like a ping pong ball up and down the pitch. I am not a Rugby hater its just Rugby Union, its not got anything on Rugby League

Hate this time of year. Can't watch it, can't listen to it. The only thing to do is to follow the text commentaries on the sports websites. Just not the same as sitting in the Mess on a Sunday afternoon, hungover from Friday, having been out for a pub lunch and now watching the rugby round the communal telly.

Who's this **** saying "you've got to expect it [your ankle being snapped if lying on the wrong side]"?

I thought it was Keith Wood but it may not have been, was a pathetic attempt by an Irish supporter to justify what is clearly an illegal act.

Absolutely. And it was a cowardly stamp that could have broken his ankle.

 

[happychappy]

With Andy Farrell being a big blue, wonder if he's brought Owen up properly to follow suit

Keith Wood talking bolocks.

Looks like one anyway. And he is shit on Stargazing Live.

 

[MCC]

Thats twice he hooker has fucked up he throw. What is the plank doing?

 

[SWP's back]

England will do there usual. IF England open up against Ireland and Wales they may well find themselfs under extreme pressure and will come up short in my opinion against both teams.

England wont win in Ireland or Wales this season. No fucking chance of England winning the championship. Ireland if they beat Wales will have a great chance as they play England and France at home going to Scotland and Italy away in the other games its got to be a great chance for Ireland this year as long as they beat Wales in the first game that is.

Well we wont have much longer to wait to find out just how good England are and Ireland. It will be good to watch thats for sure.

Not great at this divination lark are you mate?
