Bravo Italy! No points from five games would have been too cruel given how they've played this year.

Now for England/Ireland, and then the main event...

It was never in doubt

A deserved grand slam for Wales, thet owned the game...

Good come back of England that leaves France 3rd... There will be a lot to do: I think that CScotland and France both have "young teams". I'm already eager to see what this will bring next year...

So a Welsh grand slam it is, and deservedly so. Congratulations! Who'd have thought a few months ago...

Congratulations indeed to Wales for a thoroughly deserved Grand Slam! Huge potential for the future too - let's hope you can hold on to Mr Edwards.

Well done England too, for the help in showing Mr O'Sullivan the door. Cipriani is a find, he really stepped up for the game - always inspiring to see a young star emerge, even when he's demolishing one's ego.

France got scrobbled, but there's some incredible potential there - assuming you can find a front row heavier than the average supermodel. (Wales outweighed them by 8 kgs per man! How's that possible?)

Italy is looking really good too - Mr Mallett's going to take them places, as soon as he can find a fly-half who actually dares to kick the ball

Alas poor Scotland. Methinks they are doomed until the border farms reopen and the legendary men of Hawick rise again. Or at least until they get rid of Dan Parks...

By no means a scintillating competition, but very deserved winners and some glimpses of extraordinary teams to come.
