Crusaders v Sharks, Crusaders 35-6
what a difference to last weeks game, great defence, good ball handling, and the ability to move the ball wide, meant the Crusaders were able to keep the Sharks tryless, and scoreless in the 2nd half. New signing Zac Guilford a standout player imo
Stormers v Brumbies, Brumbies 19-17
didnt watch this game, but apparently it was a tryless game till the very end, Stomers could have drawn, but missed the conversion after the siren
Wales v France, France 26-20
didnt see the game, any thoughts tigerfish? France should be unbeatable now? and take it?
Predictions for the 6Nations
England v Ireland, gee tough call. England by 3
Italy v Scotland, Scotland by 10
i thought the welsh were unlucky. the two french trys, interceptions, and the french in the second half were all at sea. there was a sinn binning around the 65 minute mark, but the welsh couldnt capitalised on it, just as they had got themselves back in the game.
as for the big clash today, i would love to see england win and mayby theres a slight chance with ireland having to make a few changes to their side. but, my head tells me the boys in green by 7-9 points.
italy could do the scots though, especially if they take heart from the performance against england 2 weeks back. home advantage aswell.
what the hel_l, italy by 4-5 points.

Good England performance - they deserved more but lacked a bit of flair.

Precisely why Ireland haven't won it, instead of the dour penalties and drop goal mentality, remind me again how many tries England have scored in their 3 finals?

six nations predictions, round 4
france v italy, well depending on how the french want to play it and wether the rest a few players. i will go with a french win by 22 points.
ireland v wales, it should be a cracker of a game! especially with the support for the irish on home soil, and the travelling welsh fans in good voice after a good session in the pubs before kick off. still think the welsh have it in them to upet the apple cart. its not going to be easy with all the changes they have made to their line up, but if they can go virtually error free in the match i think they could do it.
out on a limb wales by 8 points.
now for the biggy, scotland v england. the old enemy, nothing will give me greater pleasure than to see our boys give the sweaty socks a good old stuffing on home soil, whilst robinson looks on. they will be more than up for it though, and it may turn out to be a bit of a bump and grind affair. will england try and play an exspansive free running game. all depends on the orders from above, me thinks.
england by 10 points. COME ON ENGLAND! everyone knows the rest of the world will be hoping for scottish win.

Yep - certainly a surprising lack lustre performance today.... 
Abysmal............. can't see them winning again in this years tournament 
I was right there then, things not getting any better, time for some serious changes from the management down.

Unlikely to have much effect now, so long after the final whistle. I don't suppose we could get his two goals retrospectively disallowed?
I think his commitment and passion and discipline stands him head and shoulders above the rest of the England squad

i wouldnt be surprised, although it would be uncharacteristic of wilkinson. if he doesnt do a danny cipriani, and turn his back on the international scene. to concentrate on his club career in france, with toulon. at least until the current coaching staff are replaced. maybe too late then!
