Quote from: gallsman on February 14, 2026, 04:41:06 PMReally rousing rendition of Flower of Scotland there. Now, to lose by 25 points.

This was somewhat tongue in cheek but Christ England have been dreadful.

Considering the hype about them that's a much worse result than the thumping we got in Paris and to be honest Scotland could have had a couple more tries

That was as forward as the one in the other game
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

Read an article during the week in the UK Times about Scotland doing themselves a disservice by going all in v England every time and being shite the rest of the 6N. A lot of truth to it I suppose but I bet he's fuming

Let them at it every year! They'll beat Wales and are due to give Ireland a proper game.

Forward passes seems to be okay now.

I get the ball going slightly forwards if you are running and pass it back but holy Jesus, these aren't even close.


For me Prendergast had a mare, best that he sits Twickenham out but Crowley isn't pulling up trees either.

Any sign of Keenan?

Unlikely to see Keenan in 6N. He's having an unlucky run. When it gets to the Wales game Farrell would be as well sitting out Prendergast and start Crowley with Byrne on the bench for a 2nd half run out.

Plan A for Wales is fecked after 1.35 minutes.

You'd have had the roof opened all week for this games if you were Welsh management

France carving through Wales non-stop. Closing the roof wass idiotic you want that ball as wet and slippery as possible to try to stop the french flinging it around for fun

70+ more likely! Sounds more like a home match for France too.

GalthiƩ not shy about blooding young players.

Milltown Row2

France have a huge pick

The Top 14 have quality all through it and produces a constant conveyor belt for the national team

France took pity on them and stopped last 15mins.

Wildweasel74

Wales won 2 of out 22 6 nation games past 4/5yrs!

johnnycool

Wales last few scrums caused France problems.

Something Ireland weren't close to doing.
