Thumbs up Rugby Fans!!! ITS BACK!!!

Thank god, short period with no repetative football talk. Christ how boring!!!!

Finally the Rugby starts back, a game where you can actually mingle with other supporters and not get stabbed!!!

Wales V England this Friday at 19:45, can't wait! Don't really care who wins at this point, both teams look great!

Would love to say the end result is innevitable, but the Italians seem to have a pretty good team this year. They've come leaps and bounds, small bastards are quick!

Proper game along with Rugby League. Would love to see some of the 'local' hard nuts which everyone has in their town play either of these games!

Wales backs look dangerous, Jonathan Davies/Jamie Roberts partnership looks great and too think you will still be missing 'Fullpound' and North on the wings and Lee Byrne.

If you can match us up front and stop are distribution of the ball to Youngs/Ashton/Foden, then you will probably win the game.

Apart from England, Wales are my next favourite team to be fair. France are going to be usual unpredictable selves as their coach Liveromont is picking a strange side with Traille at fullback for starters? Ireland could suprise us all and win it as they have some key games at home and when Heaslip,O'Brien and Ferris are together as 6,7 and 8 they are as good as any back row on their day. Scotland and Italy for the wooden spoon I'm afraid.

I expect Scotland to play a percentage game with Dan Park's boot coming into it and Italy give away far too many penalties and Parisse is key too them doing well as a pack this year.

Roll on tomorrow, already have my 2 bottles of Smirnoff to keep my fluids up during the game

Just my 2p's worth, well maybe pound.

Well truth be told, the only team in the 6 nations that ever have some sort of consistency is Ireland. They always give a good show, but often choke by the end like New Zealand always do. Wales and England take about 3 years to build a proper team, then it crumbles again

Can't wait, either way it'll be great. Next to Ice Hockey, its the only adrenaline filled sport that get's the fans in a great mood, forgetting the results and continuing on with a good night of drinking. You can't do that with football, everyone get's miserable


































P.S. will England be going for some tries for a change or just sticking to the usual easy drop goals........wwwwwww!!!! xx

Agreed mate, just a great game played in a great spirit most of the time. The only rugby teams where fans have to be segregated are Hull rugby league teams ! They are just mental in that town

Looking forward to seeing some good stuff being played and the odd drink whilst enjoying the game, but do agree about Ireland/New Zealand, but can't help but see the Kiwi's winning at home this year in the World Cup, that side of theirs is immense. If your a betting man, get em backed at evs money to win it while you can !


LOL, well Jonny is on the bench, so hopefully we may be going for some 5 pointers, but we ain't boring England for nothing !

Host nations always give that little bit extra incentive to win, they have no excuse. They've always been the best, even after failing time after time. They peak too early. Would love to see them win it!

Should be good
The FA would do well to take notice of how the referees are treated with respect by the players too, stop all the nancying that the football players do!

Wales V England = 19-26

Not too disapointed, what a great game! Can see some big strengths and weaknesses from both sides that'll surely be tested and resolved in the next coming weeks

Ireland today, should be a god one!
