Great stats, Muppet.

Let's hope the French can do the business on Saturday so we don't have to listen to any more nauseating media bullshit about this deviant pursuit.

Big Ireland fan
Wales are playing themselves out of it at the minute. Webb is having a absolute horror show at scrum half.

Poor stuff from Wales. Eng should be 15 ahead

[AQMP]

Game over.

[CD]

Has anyone else been simultaneously watching Gaelic, rugby and FA Cup. My head's spinning here! Deferred hurling now and I'm sure there's athletics and darts on somewhere! I love Sundays.

Swing low sweet chariot but they won't have enough points if Ireland beat France .

[Estimator]

Ireland put 46 points on Italy yesterday, England could easily put 50+ on them next week.

[J OGorman]

England and The South Sea Islanders first triple crown since 2003...surprising statistic

But it is not all about England, is it?

They need to win by more than 50 points if Ireland beat France.
