    My 2 favourite anthems today. Wales (of course) v Scotland.

    Playing at home I suspect Scotland will win the anthems, but I'm going for Wales by 7.

    I was wrong - Wales win by 10

    Wales v England next week for the Champonship. :)

    Can't wait - I'm spending the day in the pub watching all the games and celebrating my birthday as well. England wining would make it an excellent day :drinker:

    and I'd love a Wales win to spoil the party, but this year I haven't been inspired by any team. All I can say is whoever made France favourites should be shot!

    Well my husband is English so he is currently happy. I'm Scottish and just hope we don't get the wooden spoon. ...again!

    don't worry, I think France have that sewn up.

    How come Ireland-France has 3 anthems?

    No doubt Les Grenouilles will put the wooden spoon to good use whipping a sauce, either in Brussells or at the dinner table.

    Did you see any of the girlies' rugby - running and passing and outmanoeuvering just like the men's game used to be before they started this running straight at the opposition and "playing the ball off the ground" - gettting like League (pause to vigorously wash mouth out)

    So, next week.....

    if England win - they win the Championship & the Grand Slam
    If Wales win by 6 or less, England still win the championship, but no GS
    if Wales win by 7 or more - Wales win the Championship.

    oooh, exciting game next week!

    If the ref had cleaned his glasses and seen that it was not an Italian knock-on then Italy would have scored and England would have lost - against Italy!!! Is there any point in them leaving the dressing room next week?

    Excited now - got friends over for Super Saturday.

    6 Nations menu is

    Game 1 - Italy v Ireland - Mozzarella, tomato &basil on ciabatta - Peroni lager, or Murphys beer (G&T for me)

    Game 2 - Wales v England - Not sure of mains yet, but beers will be Gwynt y DDraig Cider, or Rhymney Ale, and some Old Peculiar/speckled hen/Bombadier (G&T for me)

    Game 3 - Scotland v France - Champagne hopefully after Wales win :) French cheese and biscuits, scottish shortbread, Scottish Beers/lager and french Brandy (G&T for me)

    Could get messy.

    have a great day everyone!

    And that was a fabulous end to the tournament (if you are Welsh )

    Better luck next year everyone.

    Wales are 6 nations champions, again. :)

    confetti.gif Ireland won the Grand Slam....in the Ladies Six Nations.

    :bigsmile:

    Maybe Declan Kidney should bring the men to watch the ladies play rugby so they get an idea of how to do it. :laugh:

    England were beaten by the better team, but at the start of the game I knew it would be a tough one with that ref, he was poor, very poor. The scrum was a joke and he let wales get away with murder. High tackles, not releasing, hands in the ruck grrrrr

    Oh well, congratulations Wales
