Ireland V France next week will probably be for the championship. England, Wales and Scotland are scratching around for the scraps.

I'd put England as middling and then Wales, Scotland or Italy as fighting for the wooden spoon.

Game killer decision. This is why the game as a whole is in danger atm.

Looks that way but have to see how the Calcutta cup goes to see if there's any form to change that prediction.

well.. looking forward to the England V Scotland game, im sure we will be destroyed by England, but, one can hope!!

gpuerrilla · 4 Feb 2023 at 16:26

I wouldn't count on that, only thing going for England is a new manager - maybe the player will play for their spot in the side will be good to see some fresh faces. As with all sports Scotland turn up to an England game like the planet depends on it!

Zeebedy · 4 Feb 2023 at 16:28

Yeah, I would say between Cricket, football and rugby..the rugby is our "best" sport, hopefully we can put in a good performance, and that will be totally acceptable.

Alice In Wonderland · 4 Feb 2023 at 17:01

Oh my ******* GOD!! We actually scored!! Epic!!

Custor · 4 Feb 2023 at 17:09

Scotland have won the last two. Shouldn’t be that surprising that’s it a competitive match.
Kick fest atm.

Dis86 · 4 Feb 2023 at 17:14

Worst tackling I've seen from an international team.

All from an itoje penalty.

Alice In Wonderland · 4 Feb 2023 at 17:17

OMG!! We scored again!! This is brilliant!

Don't think in my 42 years that I've ever seen them play so well!! Lol!

Zeebedy · 4 Feb 2023 at 17:31

Good solo run, a great try, one of the best i have ever seen! (trying not to be biased!)!

This is something England need to fix is the sloppy pens and the switching off, I mean vdM try was excellent - but I couldn't believe Dombrandt didn't go low for a tackle on him at the end all he had to do was fall on him. :cry:

Hang on, we are 5th in world rankings for footy and rugby, in my book that makes us best at footy.?

Zeebedy · 4 Feb 2023 at 17:37

Mabye so. But when I watch Scotland play sports, I would take their performance in rugby over cricket and football, any day of the week.

The problem is that players from certain teams (typically sarries, quins and leicester) quite often get away with murder in the Prem. As a result they carry it over in to the international game where it doesn't fly and costs England dearly.

Dis86 · 4 Feb 2023 at 17:56

Yet again poor tackling from England.

turbot1984 · 4 Feb 2023 at 17:56

Eng looking good now, mind you was tight last year when we lost by 3 points.
