Spoilers? It's hardly an episode of Lost where a significant amount of people wouldn't have access to it until the days/weeks/months following, is it?

Good win for the Oirish yesterday, I hope they can keep up their momentum this year and have no 'blips' like they normally do.

lol, I had it recorded..

Spoilers probably wasnt the best word, but best I could up with whilst frothing at the mouth with rage

Mon the Scots - seeing as none of their own are supporting them

I'd like the jocks to win, mainly cos the welsh are up their own arses when they win.

Welsh goal kicking is all over the place today. If they dont get that sorted they really wont do much this year. Scotland look flat and generally rubbish. Though they are finally showing some signs of life with that try.

Wales were all over us until the very end when they eased back and we got back into it. I think they will thrash England next week if this weekend's displays are anything to go by. I don't fancy our chances against France either.

Really impressive display from Wales today until all of the changes were made and the Williams sin bin.
Though the number of missed penalties/conversions is a concern as that could be the difference between winning or losing some of the games in this competition.

This.

We were doing brilliantly, but so many changes in such a short space of time was a massive mistake. We allowed the Scots to take a huge amount of leverage over us in the second half, I genuinely though they would get another try in before the final whistle blew, and as such the last 15 minutes felt like very desperate, scrappy rugby, from both sides, but very much in Scotland's favour.

Stephen Jones' kicking needs some real looking at, why Hook wasn't on much earlier is beyond me, and it looks as though Halfpenny could have a real future in that role too, with the proper coaching, which the Welsh side certainly have access to.

Provided Gatland can keep to a fixed squad, or one that is at least familiar with it's regular substitutes, and can sort out their kicking, Wales have a real chance at retaining the title. A grand slam is probably more than can be reasonably expected this season, but I never saw it coming last either, and they've at least managed to fix the farce that used to be their line-outs.

Overall, and impressive afternoon, bring on next weekend.

not like the English with their hyping of players; were is Cipriani?

I was dissapointed with Wales, great first half but they let Scotland right back into the game in the second half.
Hopefully we can only get better, im still nervous about the England game next week though.
And the Ireland France match was a fantastic match I just hope they don't self destruct until the last match against us, potential Grand Slam decider in Cardiff would be awesome, especially as I got tickets .

Not too bad from Scotland this half.

Very positive start. My concerns are the last 10-15 minutes. France will push hard for the win. The crowd are already on their backs event though they are leading.

C'MON SCOTLAND!!!


strawberry floatin' hell, France are awful today. A far cry from last weeks performance. I hope the Scots can win it,

strawberry float it, anyway. I hate these poxy French banana splits.

Some really stupid mistakes and some awful refereeing were Scotlands biggest opponents today.


Terrible game, though, apart from the last 20 minutes.

Can I start my campaign to have Frank Hadden tarred, feathered, paraded down the Royal Mile before being sacked by Alex Salmond yet?

I don't know who to support here it's very difficult

I'm going for a draw.

How are England still in this?

Think England have had the shitty end of the ref's stick today.
Still, a quick drop to get it back to five and maybe, just maybe the Welsh will start to get nervous.
