Who's your money on!?

With England already claiming one of the big Celtic scalps..[No Ging-er jokes please!] and the other Home Countries failing to impress[so far] are England odds on for the Championship...AT LEAST!??.... Don't want to mention the"G word"..... Not YET ANYWAY!

England and Wales were both pretty poor last weekend, England will beat Italy tomorrow but I wouldn't take too much from the game in terms of form for the matches against Ireland , France or even Scotland. With only one round played it is too soon to be putting money anywhere i think.

Come on Wales today lets get the 5 nations back on track with a win today.

Cheers

Just saw the last gasp victory by Wales!

Still,a win is a win!Maybe puts the England performance in perspective,but most teams stutter in thier opening games.
France as always the wild card,early days for sure...but that's the fun.. everyone.s still in it!.
Hoping the wheels don't fall off the Chariot!!!.... Bring on the Ieties!!!

Dire 1st half from Wales....Scotland played well....

BUT what an exciting conclusion to the game (for me as a Welshman anyway)....

Have lost my voice from shouting...still buzzing. Genuinly sorry for the Scots...they played the better /more consistant rugby to be fair....can't remember the last time we had such an exciting final phase of play (possibly when Gibbsy dropped over at wembley for that one point win).

The Scots were robbed.
Only England and France are "in it".
Do you now know league from union?

WTF are Ieties?!

My money is always on Wales, but the Frogs are looking mighty!

The only joy I get from Wales not doing well is the look on Sean Edwards face!

The 'journey man' Gatland always strikes me was being slightly 'foggy'.

Fooking gutted

No amount of beer will console me .. crying into my clootie dumpling as I post

yeah a draw would have been fair, but that's your fault! Good to see the Scots so strong though. I think you'll do the english when you meet them, I'm sure that will give you some consolation.

I hope your Welsh winger 'Evans' recovers quickly I was pleased to see his arm move when he was being stretchered off as he was very still on the ground.

Scotland deserved to win.... Right up until the second sin bin, that should have been a penalty try and a win. Disgraceful desperate professional foul. Let the team down from a one of the best scots performances for years. Great line out, good defending and heads held high. But lost fair and square.

England fan, and hope we can beat them, but the French looked awesome other than the line out. They will romp home unfortunately. Strong blitz defence, awesome attack and dominant in the forwards giving quick ball.

Shame for Scotland!I thought they played well,shows what some pride in the Jersey can do. That Sasanach manager is doing the business for them too,not just English...a Taunton boy to boot!

French looked GOOD.Frogs ''on a roll could'' be awesome!..... [Especially toasted with some Garlic Butter!!

:.. England will certainly have to show some Hunger!
