Oh the joy of living in Wales when the Egg chasing starts........NOT! (well if we beat Wales on the 11th I will change my mind :)

Enjoy, you support a team that is now a match for Southern Hemisphere teams, Wales are a team in decline :wink:

Wales looked out of sorts against Japan in the winter internationals

Ireland beat the All Blacks

France are much improved on last year and should have beaten the Aussies

I think Scotland will win 2 of their 3 home games

Ireland v England last game I think will be a decider,if Ireland can beat the French at home

England are about 5/6 and worthy favourites considering their form but there's question marks over every other team. Complacency is England's biggest danger. Wales v England next Saturday could well decide it.

Sorry, misunderstood I thought that you meant Wales were 8/1 against Italy!

Playing Italy first is a chance to get points on the board before the big one v England in Cardiff. Their fixtures have been kind although playing France away last is difficult.

Wales start the tournament very slowly. I think they'll sneak past Italy after a few scares, then get thumped by England at home. They usually do well away to France and it being last, they'll produce their best.

What makes you think Scotland will do well?

thought they played well against the aussies and were unlucky to lose 22-23

beat Argentina too

think they will give Ireland a good run for their money tomorrow,a win isn't out of the question

as I said before,Wales look out of sorts and with home advantage I think Scotland will beat them

as for Italy,I see a comfortable win there

For me though they always follow the same pattern.

Do well in the Autumn internationals, get talked up by everyone Scottish as challenging for the Six Nations and finish 5th. One year it'll be true though.

Anyone watching the Scotland v Ireland women's international? It's a really entertaining game and, surprisingly, Scotland are winning.

All the women's matches are being broadcast this year, should be some good viewing ahead

that's true enough

I can't see them getting anywhere near winning the thing,France & England away

winning 2 games at home would be a good tournament for them

That was a cracking game - Ireland won it on the last play of the match - Scotland missed three very kickable goals.

Hope the rest of the tournament is like that
