VI NATIONS - FIRST WEEK-END

© rbs6nations

VI Nations alert! It is here! You have been warned! You may want to return here after 19th March! With this caveat out of the way, I can tell you that it has been a great start to the Tournament. But for a drop goal, it was very nearly a stupendous, mind-blowing, brilliant start. England, although not awesome, won very well in Wales 26-19 and France, also not awesome, won quite well against Scotland 34-21. There was something of the air of inevitability as Ireland limped to their 13-11 win against Italy but I feel it's only a matter of time before Italy win against them. Maybe even next year. Meantime, my players to watch are: Mirco (naturellement), Richie Gray (all 6'10" of him) and Maxime 'lambchops' Medard. Roll on next week!
