Can someone explain the maths to me please? Ireland are going to be on 18 points according to the BBC, with one game to play, England are currently on 9

How can we catch them? Or is the BBC site wrong?
Bonus points.

England could get 8 points for beating France today and Ireland in the last game (4 points each).

You get one bonus point for scoring 4 or more tries in a match. So if England beat France AND score 4 or more tries it's 5 points. If they do the same against Ireland it's another 5, so there are potentially 10 points up for grabs.

Ireland will win the tournament though, but the big prize is the grand slam so we just need to beat England now. :)

Yeah, I'm pretty much certain Ireland will win the competition, all I want now is for us to beat you and deny you the grand slam
 
I believe England need to win and score at least four tries to be in with a shout?

Can someone tell me what Wales need to do and England have to do finish below Wales after super Saturday. That's all I give a fuck about at this stage.

If England lose to France today AND against Ireland next week AND Wales win one or both of their two remaining games, Wales will beat England.
 
If England win today but don't get a bonus point. And they lose next week... But Wales get a bonus point from the last two games.... Is that enough?

Yes. That'll do it too. That would be 16-13 to Wales but they'd have to score 4 or more tries against both Italy and France. Don't hold your breath ;)

Nice to see England responding well to their disappointing defeat last week *snigger*

Easy against Italy. And if gatland doesn't play an experimental line up against France can't see why not.

Not in 40 minutes.

Server fund bet: I'll give 5-1 (max combined loss to me 50 quid) against England getting 5 points out of this.

Any takers?
This is up to 250-1 now (max loss to me £500)

Come on England supporters, it's gotta be worth a coupla quid????? :D
