Rugby matters

[Alan Medic]

Ah shite. One pen miss by Sexton made all the difference. Great game though. I was there in '73 when Barry McGann just missed a conversion to win the game.

[Alan Medic]

I'm fed up.

Meds, are you doing a 6 Nations Predictor this year?...

[Alan Medic]

Wouldn't mind if there was enough interest. May be preferable to enter a Fantasy League as there usually is one. Will see if anyone else expresses interest. I'm usually talking to myself in this thread.

Welsh regions actually in talks with the WRU

A bit like Northern Ireland holding the Home Internationals Trophy as last winners.

Must say the selection of new Zealand born Rodney Ah You in Ireland's squad is about the first time I thought the selection of foreigners was right.

Telegraph are doing a Fantasy 6 Nations, pick a team rather than make score predictions. You, Mick and myself are already signed up to the Tele Fantasy games, so that would be an easy option...

[Mick Mac]

I'll do it and hope to keep it going to the end too :)

So, I registered a private league called EDF Fantasy 6 Nations. The PIN is 8051811. I've used my forum name as my team name so you know who you are playing against. Hopefully a few others might be enticed to play and make it more interesting.

For those thinking about it, you can easily select a team at random to begin with and make as many changes as you like without penalty up to the tournament starting. The link is above.

Thanks for setting it up, I'm in...

Just bumping this up for those who might be interested.

I'm in.

You Irish lads watching the Scotland game? Fancy meeting up? Normally I'd have suggested Hoopers but I suspect EDT or Actress this time. Or Castle perhaps?

[Alan Dale]

No it doesn't. Matter.

What about the Ivanhoe?

Only if you are referring to the verb and then it's a matter of opinion. In the case of the thread title I believe the author intended that it could be read either way i.e as a noun or a verb.

Not me DC as it's a Sunday which means Monday is beckoning and I can't hack it anymore. England v Ireland is on a Saturday which is a more attractive option.

This day in 1973. Great try & match.

Bumping this as the start is fast approaching. Five teams so far. Anyone else?
