So, today the 6 Nations starts! So I thought, why not have a thread to discuss the games and predictions!
I'll make a table with the standings etc, and post game schedules. That's all the come!
In the meanwhile, why not start of with some predictions? Who do you think is going to win it this year? And do you think they'll get a grand slam?
Who's going to walk away with the wooden spoon?
Get discussing while I update the thread gradually!
Edit: Little link here to the new bonus point system and rules: http://www.rbs6nations.com/en/news/3...yIylm2VrkR1.97

Ty for making this! Ages since we've discussed Rugby on this forum it feels.
I'm hoping England win it, I assume if we play as we did last year we should, I expect Scotland to take the Wooden Spoon, because they're dire.

So I slate Scotland as dire and now they're beating Ireland, I don't even.

Scotland ahead again, what an upset it would be if they were to win

TIL, Nerph watches Rugby.
England have had a slow start to this game, poor pass early on cost them. Hopefully they can turn the heat up now after levelling.

An ugly win, but a win is a win.

Well, easily the worst win and performance from England under Eddie Jones, nowhere near the explosive, sublime team we've seen usually. Hopefully gives Wales some hope to win the tournament after England looking shoddy and Ireland getting beaten by Scotland, not holding my breath though as Wales have been so dire the past 2-3 years. I'd actually like to see Scotland win it for once haha.

True, a win and points is all that matters at the end of the day. Originally Posted by Helden

The best home nation at the World Cup, and should've made it through to the final. Originally Posted by tommypilgrim

I think the only Home Nation that won't really be in contention this year will be Ireland, Scotland had a great world cup and they've built on that over the winter.

Italy are a joke. They should let the Georgians play them for promo/relegation since the Georgains won the B torney 5 times.

Ohsnap didn't even realize we had a 6 Nations thread. Glad to see Scotland look dangerous again. World Cup was a bitter pill to swallow with that Ref at the end. France also looking back to their old selves even if they couldn't hold on against England. If the consistency is there it could be one of the most competitive 6 Nations in a while.

Wales should have picked up the extra points today, they may regret that

England will get the grand slam again when they get a little passion

predictions for today?
Ireland should thump Italy, and I have a bad feeling Wales are going to beat England.

We should have thumped Scotland last week so I would still take Italy with a grain of salt, missing Sexton is still going to be felt hard. Originally Posted by Nerph-

I'm not so sure, Scotland seemed to have improved the last year. Scotland showed they were no walk over. If I were a betting man (or if I had money ;D) I'd be tempted to bet on them beating France tomorrow. Originally Posted by Micfeind

There is no understating how terrible this Italy team is.
