Eternal optimist, that's me.

France still look cack for 90% of the game and Scotland will be hurting from the Welsh loss.

Game over unless I get 2 more correct scores than ????...

[Alan Medic]

Might you have got your tactics wrong RD? You should have taken off the rose tinted glasses and gone and for Wales to win!

[red devil]

Probably Meds. ???? has been very clever keeping his predictions around the 15-15 score, plus or minus a few points, it's the poker player in him coming out ;-)

I thought about going for a Wales win, as the odds on a correct score in rugby are pretty slim, but I genuinely think England will nick it and break Celtic hearts :)

[Alan Medic]

Worst case scenario today is if Wales win by less than 7 points. England will be Champs but won't feel much like it having lost a GS. Still for a young team it would be a great outcome but perhaps the rules of the 6 Nations should be changed. If teams are level on points the winner of the head to head, wins. It would make this situation a winner takes all game and more of a cup final.

I'm going in..........be in Herne if anyone fancies. M'oan Scotland.

I overrated England's chances. Sorry.

[Alan Medic]

I underestimated Wales. Sorry too.

[maxxi]

Wales won it so easily - how they must be rueing that first game against Ireland.

England are changing their name to "England Penalised".

I underestimated Italy's chances. Sorry.

[MrBen]

It always really pains me to see England stuffed like that.

[Alan Medic]

And the winner is.....????'s.

No points for copying other people's jokes :)

You can teach me nothing on rugby MM, the prediction league table tells no lies

[MrBen]

A bitter sweet victory through eh?

[red devil]

Good to see the Celts haven't lost their chippiness...you're teams both actually lost in case you were wondering.
