Six Nations - 2024

[Mr Retro]

If Ireland play like this in Twickenham we’ll lose. Give the Welsh defence some credit too I suppose.

 

[Elpenor]

Wales full back has been impressive, a debutant 3 weekends ago. Some meagre positives from the campaign so far

 

[Rebelda]

Ah I actually feel for Wales there that was graft.

 

[Elpenor]

Switched over to the next game after the inevitable bonus point try

 

[Rebelda]

Well it wasn't entirely one sided despite the score. Looking forward to the next one, this'll be interesting.

 

[starfish]

Cmon Scotland.

 

[Elpenor]

England are looking lively

 

[Elpenor]

Beautiful first phase try and that’s what Furbank is in the team for

 

[Elpenor]

Some good examples of the blitz defence so far being successful for England so far, catching the player as soon as they get the ball forcing knock on etc. Suffocating the attack

And now for the try, how to counter, they slip the ball pass the blitz and come through and score

 

[starfish]

Cracking try. Off first phase too.

 

[starfish]

Go Duhan, ya beauty.

 

[Elpenor]

Looked like may have been in touch at the start of his run?

 

[Elpenor]

Anyway not given. This is a more even game.

England backs have dildo hands today

 

[gosub]

I'm going to put my Wales Jersey on. For the avoidance of piss taking if I go out in toon tonight

 

[gosub]

Better game though tbf

 

[Elpenor]

England behind again - third time in a row

 

[planetgeli]

Ireland are 23 points favourites.

Glad I didn't have a bet. That was one hell of a forecast from the bookies.

And I was right about the Scots having figured out how to get behind that rush defence.

Good to see The Pilot score though. Also, cracking drop goal.

Here's hoping they snatch it again then!

They’ve got behind it, it’s certainly not infallible. England have asked questions of Scotland though. Perhaps the England power off the bench will make the difference. You’d expect it.

England are not really scoring enough tries to frighten Ireland or France

 

[starfish]

Another belter of a try.

 

[Elpenor]

Great performance Scotland

 

[A380]

Great game so far it has to be said.

 

[Elpenor]

England need to score two tries to win, can’t see this happening

Good to see Fin Smith coming on. Need to make a change attacking wise and I think he’s the future

 

[planetgeli]

Great game. Scotland a bit asleep from the kick off there.

That aged well…

 

[Elpenor]

Great try by the chiefs player

 

[Elpenor]

Just realised I’m watching a few mins behind

 

[A380]

That aged well…

Or not.

 

[Elpenor]

First hattrick scored against England in the 5/6 nations since 1985.

Can anyone tell me what was unusual about that one 39 years ago?
