Six Nations 2023

[MrSwerve]

Big game between Ireland and France today. Going to be tough for Wales against Scotland.

 

[MugfordsJack]

And, don’t forget the Sais vs Italy tomorrow. Italy looking closer to England than they (the English) would ever admit.

 

[Pegojack]

Great match in Dublin. There's no stopping the Irish steamroller.

 

[Neath_Jack]

North loses consciousness there

North loses consciousness there

That's happened too many times in his career.

 

[Pegojack]

You can't fault Wales' effort, I'm enjoying watching them, it's just the execution at crucial moments which is not quite there.

 

[BrynCartwright]

Just so annoyed Ireland and Scotland routinely get away with non straight line out put ins and forward passes (Ireland mainly).....

 

[Pegojack]

Difference in class is telling now, Wales getting a ploating.

 

[TheLoneRanger]

Once again Finn Russell the best player on the pitch.

On the bright side, nowhere for the WRU to hide.

Wooden spoon this year and for the under 20s. Decades of mismanagement coming home to roost. As I said some time ago, and was ridiculed by a couple, Welsh rugby is on a precipice.

Edit…that said, there is still a decent team when everyone’s fit. Lake is some player. Plus of course LRZ. It’s just the production line. Half back and lock, plus tight head is looking pretty bleak, and we are a few injuries away from today being the norm.

Picking Owens as captain was insane. Bigger and Williams (L) are gone.

Very good points
Sheriff is really not an international captain . He has to be subbed for a start. ThecRef today was asking who the new captain was and the players looked confused. Utterly shambolic.

Liam should never play again such is his ill discipline . Carre is disgusting to behold and Biggar just has a big mouth but hasn’t the skill or class to back it up.
Russell took the puss out if him today . He s a clown basically.

The youngsters didn’t look out of their depth though which
makes one makes you wonder why only now they have been introduced .

Oh and please retire G North

Big game between Ireland and France today. Going to be tough for Wales against Scotland.

Ireland v France was the best game in this years 6 nations so far, Italy v France a close second, but the enormity of the Ireland, France game was of more importance to the title challenge, unfortunately for us Welshies Wales stayed in the changing room for that 2nd half, wasn't helped by yet another homer of a referee, two high tackles which both should have been carded, but at least the second one after that challenge being so close to the first and the first high tackle that was carded in the first half was clearly a swinging arm that received a yellow which probably should have been a red.

Yet another homer of a ref the same has the ref that reffed the U20's last night

Dear me, just where to start with this,

 

[Niigata Jack]

Worrying for him, he should never have been allowed back on, ridiculous decision in doing so, needs to step away from the game now, for his own sake.

Totally agree, and it makes a mockery of the head assessment protocols.

How many times has he been KO'd now? Seem to remember he had to have a bit of time off the game due to it a few seasons ago.
