RBS Six Nations Rugby Thread
 

Yeah, there should be one!

I'm currently enjoying Wales being 27-15 in front of Scotland, with less than ten minutes remaining... looking at our second win, out of two.

Hold up.. make that 30-15, after a penalty. Whoop whoop.

7 of those points did come from an admittedly dubious Welsh try, though.

Dubious? Lot more than dubious pal.

Doesn't change the result though. Even if you took that 7 points off the final score, we still won. :D

France take the lead vs Ireland, 5-0

Ireland are a dangerous team, you never know what you're getting. Sometimes they look like shit, other times they look world class.

12-3 to France. C'mon Ireland.

Sorry but you were leading by 3 before that and there was like 20 minutes to go. How does that mean Wales would have won?

It was a lucky try that shudnt have been given, and it killed the scots spirit in the end.

If Scotland had scored afterwards, I would concur that it was a tainted win... but they didn't put any real pressure on us. We still would have won, by 8 points rather than 15.

France 19 - 6 Ireland :(

I don't think Wales will have a lot of luck against this French side.

A grand slam would be rather nice though :)

Because they were the better side. Wales deserved the victory. They got a bit of luck but that's sport.

.

Ireland did very well to fight back there.

Unlucky not to snatch the win away from the French.

Nobody is denying this.

Cymru Am Byth.

Wales for the Grand Slam! :D

I hope you win it.

Without Aus NZ + SA, the 6 nations is nothing but a jobber tournament.

Whatever, Trevor

Wales demolished Italy yesterday.

Only Ireland and France to go.

:lol: "only"...

Grand slam, baby!

We beat Ireland!!!

Wales' psychology yesterday was awesome. We played a quarter of the game with a man less and still didn't look threatened. Such a professional performance, reminded me of England's 'win ugly' attitude throughout the world cup.

We've all but won the Championship now. France have to beat us by 20 points next week in Cardiff to take it from us. Would be prettycrap to celebrate a loss though. We want the Grand Slam!

Btw, does anyone know why France only have to beat us by 20 points, seeing as we have a 37 point difference over them? I don't get that.

Also, LMAO at England's inconsistency and shittness.

121-64(france)(+57)
119-74(wales)(+45)

That's what the difference would be if say france beat you 20-0, so i dunno, im confused. It might be to do withf rance having to have more pts scored and less pts coneded at the sametime than wales. get me?

If Wales win the Grand Slam then I think I'm gonna have to leave this shitting country.

And :foc: for there being no fucking hotels in Cardiff on Friday night because of the damned rugby.

Lol give us a break. Our little old country hasn't had much success in sport in recent years. It's our time again! We've tolerated enough of 'England's World Cup heroes'.

I find it funny though, how England and Ireland have consistently challenged the 6 Nations for most of this decade, and what do they have to show for it? England have one grand slam and Ireland, as always, have absolutely nothing. Then you get Wales, just spring out from nowhere and bag 2 championship. Mad world.
We have more to us this time though. That first grand slam was more of a fluke, we just came out and offered a brand of rugby nobody was familiar with before. Just thought what the hell, we have nothing to lose, let's go. Once everybody figured our shallow game plan out we went back to being whipping boys.

This time we can play lose and tight when we need to and know how to close a game out. Warren Gatland :D:D

Half an hour to go.... then the Welsh boys are gonna whip those frogs and take the Grand Slam. They'll be singing hymns and arias on the streets of Wales tonight... the championship is pretty much in the bag.... the Grand Slam would be the cherry on the cake.

How the fuck did Italy beat Scotland?? I'll say one thing about this year's Six Nations... it's been surreal.

i should really be in a pub watching this

its a matter of life or death

We won today atleast, thrashed ireland, scotland lost to italy, and if wales win by more than 3 pts we finish 2nd, good day of rugby.

what a dilemma... if we win, we get the championship and the grand slam... but if we lose, we knock England down a place...

6-0 to Wales with 20mins gone.

9-3

be nice to put an early converted try on them now, but france are looking dangerous at times here... if we want the grand slam, france are really gonna make us work for it

lol you seriously hate us that much? Get over it. :p

nah not at all... but on the rugby pitch, yes we do

be flattered... if beating england wasn't such an elusive and glorious achievement, it wouldn't mean so much to us, so it's a testament to you really

Shame you aint been to two world cup finals in a row and won one of them then eh?

Sorry i couldn't resist chucking those achievements into this thread.

well... explain to me why england always follow up a great world cup showing by falling apart and going to the dogs immediately afterwards?

I dunno, its the same with our cricket team. Bloody annoying. Must be the way our sports teams are managed or brought up or something.

shit.... 9-9

fuck aye... 16-9 to wales... shane williams is a legend

19-9.... i smell the grand slam... :D

13 minutes to go...!

and that means real time, not another two hours like the Superbowl.

If France can score a converted try in the next ten minutes and keep Wales from scoring, they've bumped England down to third place.

oh man, this is too fuckin close.... 19-12 now

22-12... if these frogs beat us, ill dye my hair blue (the colour of their kit) as a forfeit

jesus

wales just looked fucking amazing, missed a try by about a metre and quicly followed up with a real one from Martyn Williams, thats the exclamation mark on the grand slam.

Wales 29 - 12 France

Two minutes to go.

Wales have won the Triple Crown, the Grand Slam and the RBS Six Nations championship.

Amazing.

I believe that puts England in at second.

Yup it does, god if we had cipriani in againsts cotland we could've won the six nations, but nooo, ashton has to be so damn stubborn. Oh well shit happens. Pleased for wales, future looks better for us now with cipriani though. I still think ashton should be sacked.

don't buy into the cipriani propaganda... typical bad performance deflecting optimism... "we had a poor tournament but not to worry because we have this star-in-the-making who will turn things around"...

trust me, being welsh, i've seen the 'great white hope' tactic a million times

I think Ashton will quit. Wonder if they got Clive on speed dial? :lol:

I truly think we'll have a more settled team next time round with cipriani bossing the games, and wales will be in for a surprise. This is still a developing team really.

Well done to Wales! So happy to see them win.

Best team by far.

Ignore arrogant English cunts.

:(

Aye were all arrogant cunts eh?

Funnily enough its arrogant to call all of us arrogant cunts. Gotta love the irony.
