Newbies, what newbies? It's still all about Vincent Clerc!!
This should be a very interesting Six Nations this year, anything can happen!! So I am just dying to find out in which exciting and experimental new ways Lievremont will lead us to victory this time.
Re: Re : Six Nations Rugby Championship 2008
My early pick was Wales. Not too sure why but I'm thinking any team could take it this year so why not?
Re: Re : Six Nations Rugby Championship 2008

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

I couldn't agree with you more!Newbies, what newbies? It's still all about Vincent Clerc!!

See, even the TMO wants Wales to get a Grand Slam.

Re: Six Nations Rugby Championship 2008
Good game from Wales, but should have killed off a frankly awful Scotland long before the disputed try.
Alas poor Ireland. We wouldn't have deserved to win that game, but it was a stunning comeback. Vincent Clerc - what can one say?
It's great to see France playing like France again, even if they do risk comebacks like that. Beautiful back play, gorgeous hand skills and a total refusal to kick just makes the heart glow. Pity about the scrum.
Luckily, the passionate second half doesn't seem to have fooled anyone back home - Eddie O'Sullivan is still on the rack. What a waste of a great team - for the first half, I was actually glad not to be in Paris this year. It should be possible for a talented back division to actually pass the ball to hand once in a while, shouldn't it? Y'know, the French can do it.

France are going to butcher England if Johnnie and his fanboys keep playing the way they do.
I can't believe his comments on the Itallian match - he thinks England played well ?
No offence to the italians (who were powerful but missing decent backs) but a 3 point win isn't any thing to pat yourself on the back about.
Anyway, c'mon Wales ! Gatland is the best thing to happen to us in a loooong time
Look what these bastards have done to Wales. They've taken our coal, our water, our steel. They buy our homes and live in them for a fortnight every year. What have they given us? Absolutely nothing. We've been exploited, raped, controlled and punished by the English — and that's who you are playing this afternoon Phil Bennett's pre 1977 Rugby match speech
Re: Six Nations Rugby Championship 2008
I found myself agreeing with the belisped BBC's comentator on the England-Italy match. Spent the second half kicking things, shouting, calling the England team a bunch of public-school burks, and banging my head against the wall whenever they kicked the ball away. Okay, I got carried away.. but they did seem to be playing as if they were frightened of possession. I just hope they pull their collective fingers out for France.

Re: Six Nations Rugby Championship 2008
Yay! England aren't entirely rubbish! That said, it's on days like these I wish I were a Welshman. They've been consistantly uber since the beginning.
