Bollocks - there goes my predictor result!
France are going to win it now.
Can you see the Scots busting a gut at Murrayfield in a fortnight to help England and if the Irish can't win it on the final day, England have shot themselves in the foot this afternoon.
Eddie Jones will be getting used to finishing second. Not good enough.

In France they got the bounce of the ball, today we have had it. Championships are won or lost on it. We have totally mullered Ireland so far with the help of the ball bounces.

After our dismal first performance all we can do is win every other match, hope the French slip up somewhere, hope that we win it on points scored/conceded. I will be happy from here if we only have the one defeat.

Not 100% sure of this. Ireland in Paris is the last match. There may still be something on this.
England are a good team and doing well. But others are strong too. It's good to see the French back. 2010 their last win.
If England finish second with a single defeat in Paris, combined with a WCF appearance, it's been a good season.
I have a feeling we might.
Dublin, Cardiff, Paris and Twickers almost always deliver home wins in international RU.

South African ref and TMO, enough said
I had a big bet on Ireland to win the Six Nations at the beginning so my grapes are a bit sour!
Still stand by my prediction that the French will win it (and hopefully with a Grand Slam if the Orish can't mathematically do it on the final Saturday). This afternoon will sting. Both for them and me. I was beginning to dream of a 4/1 pay out.

A very good post.
It's certainly been a brilliant Six Nations so far in quality (with incredibly difficult conditions in the Calcutta Cup).
France are nailed on Grand Slam winners now. What are the odds?
With Shaun Edwards they finally have a truly world class defensive coach. They only have to play the awful Scots, then with the huge advantage of playing in Paris they face this Ireland team that choke away at big rugby nations.

I think the French will do it. But they have lost their last three matches at Murrayfield.
Before they had this grit with Shaun Edwards.
Plus Scotland under Gregor Townsend peaked a year ago. Since then, key players have retired and their best player Finn Russell won’t play for them again whilst GT is the manager.
