Can anyone point me to the thread?

Or if not is anyone watching.

Ouch. France were fantastic but that was painful watching. Had kidded myself we weren't that far behind but definitely clear there's a lot of work to do.

Dupont must be the best 9 in the world. Just quality.

England are in trouble next week. That was pitiful. No game plan. They have been complacent and played boring rugby for too long and now it's biting them.

AndSixNationsDancing · 11/03/2023 18:55

Agree, France were excellent and deserved the win. I've booked next Saturday off work but I think I'm going to go in!

Really falling out of love with rugby union this year. So complicated/ technical in the contact areas and England constantly make the wrong decisions in the heat of the moment.
France were amazing.

duc748 · 11/03/2023 19:48

France sure look like they know what they are doing. They didn't just out-muscle England, they outsmarted them in every area. Pet hate of mine in union; why don't wingers hold their position when not in possession? So France make a (very good) cross-field kick, and their winger is hugging the touchline, we only have Dombrandt, and he's slow to react, and can't catch him anyway? Where's England's left-winger? Shouldn't he be marking his opposite number?

Right, I'm off to watch the Canberra Raiders!

Come on Ireland 🇮🇪☘️

gingercat02 · 12/03/2023 15:50

Scotland Ireland is my favourite as DH is Scottish but this one is a bit tight

duc748 · 12/03/2023 16:02

Martin Johnson looks like he spent last night on a park bench with a bottle of white cider.

Kidsfortea · 12/03/2023 16:21

Watching Scotland v Ireland. Best game of the weekend.

gingercat02 · 12/03/2023 16:32

It is now @KiKidsfortea 🇮🇪

LadyEloise1 · 12/03/2023 16:56

👏🏻☘️🇮🇪

massistar · 12/03/2023 17:08

Well my head was right unfortunately. Ireland were amazing. So much depth in the squad and they don't seem to know how to lose.

Scotland did really well in the first half but should've put a couple of more tries away.

Paesano · 12/03/2023 17:29

I wonder how the second half would have gone had Scotland scored that try on the half time whistle. Too many lost chances.

duc748 · 12/03/2023 19:48

Ireland are a machine. It's seldom pretty to watch, but they are so efficient in attack and defence.

Crazykatie · 13/03/2023 20:57

Disappointed with England both at under 20 and senior team, both completely outclassed, it does not bode well for the World Cup the players are not coming forward from the premiership, probably because there are so many South Africans and others in key positions.

Weepingwillows12 · 18/03/2023 08:47

What's our predictions for today? I think Scotland win by 5, France by 12 and Ireland by 12.

gingercat02 · 18/03/2023 10:05

💚☘🇮🇪🏈 It's a big day all round. I'm hoping for Ireland, Scotland and Wales wins.

We're off to the Irish Centre in town. It's not Dublin but it will do.

Have a great day everyone unless you are English (with true MN light hearted intent)

duc748 · 18/03/2023 12:36

Looks like 3 home bankers, doesn't it? I do feel a bit sorry for Marcus Smith, though; he's been made a bit of a scapegoat.

LadyEloise1 · 18/03/2023 13:52

What tv station is the Ireland v England match on in the UK please ?
I know it's on Virgin One here in Ireland.
I'm off to the match. BIL came down with covid so there was a spare ticket.
It's an ill wind.
🇮🇪

gingercat02 · 18/03/2023 14:01

@LadyEloise1 ITV1 in the UK. Enjoy your day at the Aviva

LadyEloise1 · 18/03/2023 14:03

Thank you @gingercat02

Anyfeckinusername · 18/03/2023 14:12

Couldn't get tix for the match today. No amount of begging and campaigning, unless ripping a ticket out of a dead man's hands. Come on Ireland!!! 💚☘️🇮🇪💚☘️🇮🇪🏉☘️☘️🏉

AndSixNationsDancing · 18/03/2023 16:45

Really enjoyed the Wales game, I thought they were a great opposition. Shame about the result.

Come on England, yeah right they are going to get battered
