Re: Wales Vs England • OFFICIAL Match Thread • 2025 Six Nations

Two tries off heads. A 50/50 ref call on a Wales try. A final try when Wales were shattered.

I reckon the gap was more properly about 30 points less. A good win still, but not a drubbing.

Re: Ireland vs France, official 2025 6 nations match, thread.

Congratulations France. To be honest, I wasn’t that surprised at the win, even in Dublin. We all know France are a fearsome side and when they click they can beat any of the other five. And I don’t see Ireland as that bad or over the hill. It always feels like that when a side that’s better on the d...

Not a criticism of anyone - players can be in and out of form of right or wrong for a game plan - but I love how sports fans change their minds given a w...

Obviously it'll be a French win. But a decent performance from England will keep the hope alive that our debonair, smooth talking, nonchalant coach will continue the march forward.
