Six nations

[Barftone]

Brewing nicely for Scotland and Ireland!

 

[Lowflyer]

Good luck guys, hope you lot in Pembrey are relatively sober and tuned in


Redskins opened, wee dram poured, family round, Scotland shirts on --- here we go ..........

 

[Lowflyer]

Very quiet in Pembrey the now

Thought we had plonked it in the first half, but to be fair, mistakes on both sides.
2nd half old Fern must have given them a bollocking , different team.

Settling down now to watch the Irish game, should be a good one. I may have a headache in the morning

The strange one has lost her voice through screaming during the game ????

Let's hope it's permanent
Six Nations, you gotta love it

Great Scotland - Wales game.

Not so great Ireland - France game.

 

[Hamster]

Scotland were the far better time I thought. Perhaps this is the start of
a new era.

 

[Lowflyer]

England v Italy this afternoon, looking forward to it

Then the following game is THE BIG ONE should be interesting , to say the least, but think England will have the upper hand. We''ll see after today's game

 

[Lutin]

Not a great showing by England - but they got the job done in the end.

 

[Lowflyer]

Yeah,

Italy looked good in the first half, a lot of intelligent play,but I think they were blown out by England's match fitness in the end.
Wasn't a bad game, in fact quite enjoyed it

 

[Hamster]

Never thought I'd say this but, come on Wales.

[austin]

Great game, thoroughly enjoyed it. Tomorrow is going to be good.

 

[Lutin]

What a fabulous game. Really enjoyed that.

As Austin says - roll on Saturday.

 

[Lowflyer]

Didn't see the Wales game, was at a wedding yesterday, feeling a little tired today

Getting mildly excited now, not long to go
Good luck to both teams, looks like it's going to be a cracker.

Good game last night (Wales-Ireland), Just watched France-Italy, the Italians ran out of steam again, might have done better had they scored when they were camped on the French 5 meter line foe a while early in the second half.

Going to watch the big one now, a bit early to start on the beer (4.00pm) but you've got to try haven't you

[Lowflyer]

Fek off Austin

We were sh1te, England played very very well --- at last

Oh well, I am gutted as you can imagine, but on the day, the best team won.
We just didn't show up, back to the drawing board I guess

 

[austin]

I think you do your team a disservice John. I thought Scotland were good and worryingly threatening at times. But some silly mistakes and the fact the England were just AWESOME most of the time meant the outcome was foregone from within a few minutes of the start.

 

[Lowflyer]

Nah, we were terrible Austin

Three tries from the same line out area -- not acceptable
Still smarting, but at least we are doing better than last year.

Typical on the day that matters, England as you say were awesome, we were not, nothing short of embarrassing, no flair, no movement, one dimensional. Think old Vern got his tactics wrong, skipper didn't help.

Oh well, maybe next year,?
1983 seems so long ago

Ok ,we shall discuss over a bottle of malt one night

 

[boboneleg]

Scotland were unlucky with injuries but indiscipline let them down, England played their best game so far of the six nations. Now, can they beat Ireland on their own turf?

 

[Barftone]

Squeezed the life out of Scotland. Strong power along with a few silky moves. Good for the jocks to come back with 3 tries showed real character when under the hammer. Watch out Jonny Sexton they are coming after you!

 

[Lowflyer]

Here we go again.
Two sons, daughter in law and daughter down at Murrayfield.
The wife and I are babysitting our two granddaughters and the dog, oh well

Must behave my language this time, unlike the England game where I got a yellow card.
Very emotional flower of Scotland today
