Six Nations Comp 2014

[chiswickmart]

The latest update. Together with the blatant cheat Beta, I continue to hold a 100% record. It may go down to the tiebreaker, Beta with 61, me with 64. Italy have currently scored 45 points. Although with a trip to Dublin and home to England still to come, not sure they'll score too many more.

Two weeks till England v Wales, alas I will miss it as I'm playing some tasty golf courses in the Liverpool/Southport region that weekend.

Looking like it's going to be Ireland's title due to points difference unfortunately but the Wales v England game at Twickers should be a thumping affair now both are back on track.
I was actually down at Esher RC on Saturday for the England v France ladies U20's, as my daughter's friend plays for England. They got a wallopping from France but at least I was introduced to a new and unexpected experience of supporting England in a rugby international, weird!
Obviously though I didn't join in the Swing Low nonsense as it's just a tad too gay, you really need a more butch anthem!

Not sure I agree with you about the Irish. They've only won once in Paris in 50 years, they'll need to do so again to win it. I reckon it will be decided in Twickenham in 2 weeks. Although I've always thought winning the 6 Nations without a Grandslam to be a bit pointless anyway, unless we played all teams home and away.

The England team will improve massively before the World Cup. When they get back the likes of Corbisiero, Cole, Tuilagi, 2 wingers and not to mention what Sam Burgess might do. I'll take another win now and keep the momentum going.

Totally agree with you about Swing Low, and anyone doing the actions needs shooting. It's right up there with Scum's Gay wave.

Hmmm... negro spiritual tad gay? I'll leave you to tell that to the large black dudes working in the cotton fields SD.

Tut tut Corky a bit of stereotyping there, just because some chaps are big and black doesn't mean they all work in cotton fields!

Btw Swing Low was hijacked as a rugby 'song' donkeys years back, and not just in England. A good old spiritual negro song it may be but as a rugby anthem... No!

Chis, re Ireland I think their points tally should just be too much, particularly for us as we were on the receiving end for most of that. However I wouldn't be surprised if they did now go on to lose to France and whoever else they're to play, they can be prone to that!
Whatever the situation Wales need to beat England (well) and put some points

[chiswickmart]

Brown is easily negated, just don't kick it to him.

We're now without Billy V as well which is a big loss. So that's 2 props, 2 wings, a centre and number 8. If we beat you with what's available then we really are World Cup contenders (and you're not).

But, but, but... I didn't say that. What I said was it was originally sung by some tough hombres, who would be black, (the clues in the genre of the song) doing back-breaking manual labour and for that reason would be severly p!ssed off and therefore not be advisable to call gay...

Anyway, I can remember rugger-buggers making obscene miming acts to the song so obviously it has been highjacked by a bunch of public school nobs and come a long

Aha a different tactic this year I see, getting your excuses in before the game!

[Southerndown]

Hands up who's getting nervous!

Double up bet this weekend with Pompey and Twickers home wins for sure
