Six Nations 2019

Well, Wales just completely pissed me off in the first half.

To being EPIC in the second half, coming back from 16-0 down to 24-19 and beating France!

As @allezfred would say,

Suck on it France!

Well I'd be lying if I said I expected England to beat Ireland in Dublin - but I'll take it!!

Fair enough. Can’t say I was thrilled though.... sorry

(And that’s not a “I want everyone to beat England” thing, Ireland are my second favourite team, followed by England cos I did get up at silly o clock back in the day to watch them win the World Cup.)

I still feel like I went through the wringer on Friday night! I kind of wish we had lost so I could just ignore the whole thing!

A billion deleriousness as Wales beat England 21-13

 

[SHARPIE]

Italy gave Ireland a bit of work to do but the Irish prevail 26-16.

Wales have been digging down and fight to the end. After seeing Ireland struggle I'd say Wales could win the GS. Of course Scotland could scupper their chances

Wales has this insane knack of beating England every decade. Someone posted on Twitter before the match the stat (2019, 2009, 1999 etc). They deserved the win though!

And Wales are on course for the Grand Slam, beating Scotland in Edinburgh 18-11.

Ireland travel to Cardiff next week to try and spoil the party.

Whatever the outcome Wales have won 13 games in a row now!

England demolished Italy yesterday to keep themselves in the title race.

If Ireland can see off France today, they also keep their champion hopes alive.

Tense times!

Ireland did see off France and gained a bonus point as well. Next weekend 3 teams have it all to play for. Wales have the home advantage over Ireland but it should be a tight game. England also have home advantage so will hopefully win the Calcutta Cup.

Well I was not expecting Ireland to roll over like that.

Anyway congrats Wales you deserved the win today and have the GS heading into the World Cup. See you there.

I had to miss the game as I was at work. Just watched the last 15 minutes.

Obviously all I can say is Wheeeeeeeeeee!

Would have never have thought this after being 16 -0 down to France after 40 minutes!

Warren Gatland. What a man! 11 years, 3 Grand Slams and a Championship. He will be sorely missed.

 

[SHARPIE]

Wow Scotland vs England.

From, 31-0 down to a 38-38 draw.

That was beautiful rugby in that second half. Perhaps the best I saw in the entire tournament.

Congratulations Wales
