eng 44 - 10 ita (sole azzuri try scored in the dying minutes)

fra 17 - 19 ire (ire to build up decent lead with les bleu fight back starting 60 mins in when michalek is hauled off and replaced by trinh duc)

sco 14 - 14 wal (rain is a great leveller at M'field and the two sets of forward lolloping around in the mud will result in a stalemate)

According to the forecast it will be dry at KO time. This fixture is often a classic so I hope to see plenty of ball in hand and loads of tries (and a close game). If Scotland were to win it's amazing to think they could win the championship on points difference. I just hope the Italians give England a game so there is something to play for next week and not a case of England's points difference being so better than Wales/Scotland that it's a foregone conclusion.

Amazing.....as Halfpenny was about to take his first kick did you see what was on the advertising hoarding on the touchline? 'Gingerbeer'. Should there be bonus points for that?


As for that game, it may as well have been played in wet conditions. Penalty after penalty.

    • There’s a couple of Gov petitions going on in relation to fireworks at the moment but this one is for banning them entirely except organised displays if anyone wants to sign. This is the only sensible way forward in my view. No one should be able to let them off in gardens or anywhere like that, it’s crazy. I am surprised some of you have said it hasn’t been as bad this year. I live near DKH Saino and it’s been absolutely terrible my way for days. This petition gained about 20,000 just in the last day or so so clearly the appetite is there! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559
    • I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.
    • Clicking on your name, I see you've made seven posts on here since you joined  around four years ago, and they've all been about local libraries. And none of the posts are  very pleasant. Care to share with the rest of us where  your particular interest in libraries comes from? Do you work in one of them?
