I'm absolutely gutted that Squidge Rugby isn't covering the tri-nations because the rights holders have been issuing him with tons of copyright strikes. Would love to see his coverage of this, and hopefully he'll still get something out:

How can a sporting organisation supress the thoughts of somebody on Twitter?

He does a gooseberry fool load of youtube coverage that's consistely some of the best in depth analysis about.




However, while the rights holders for most northern hemisphere competitions, like the 6 Nations, English Prem, and Pro 14, have been more than happy to let him use footage, Sanzaar own the rights for most of the Southern Hemisphere comps, and just get them all taken down. He lost a load of his world cup coverage last year, before coming to an agreement with World Rugby, which given that they've actually employed him off the back of his videos to do promo spots for them, is pretty nuts.

The 6 Nations is back :toot:

Looking forward to this, even though I'm not confident in Wales (and less so after Adams got banned for going to a gender reveal party :fp: ). Excited to see France and Scotland, but France or England to win it, assuming the tournament finishes that is...

England are doing well to still be within 1 score given the number of penalties they're giving away. The handicap for Scotland was +13 before the game, I knew I should have put a bet on.

Only one team in that. Score should have been wider, and would have been if not for some dodgy kicking

Can't believe Scotland had the nerve to kick possession away with 1 minute to go, but that was Scotland's game all the way.

England were shocking, looked as though today was the first time they'd played together in a year, but that they played as badly as they did and still only went 5 points behind, speaks to just how good even a bad England team actually still are.

Got to say, as an England fan, that that's a very generous assessment of the England team! Not to take anything at all away from Scotland but, hey-ho, (and did no-one actually watch any of Scotland's recent performances under GT?!), England were absolutely shite. I hate it when England are accused of being arrogant but boy did they look like a bunch of over privileged arrogant ***** today. I think the game plan was to just rock up, soak up the pressure then surge majestically ahead in the second half..... Obviously at Twickenham we were not going to lose. (Massive facepalm.) As per usual Mr Jones took it on the chin as his 'lack of preparation' personal responsibility but privately he must be absolutely fuming. Half the squad don't deserve to play next week! (At least Robson, when he game on, was hungry.)

Anyway, let's just hope that tomorrow's match delivers us the game of the weekend.

That was a mixed bag of a weekend, Scotland put in a huge shift to get the job done against a weirdly aimless and confused England side. Ireland simulataneoulsy did everything possible to throw away the game and try to win it, very bizzare performance. Im slowly getting a sense of dread about this whole tournament, we wont beat France, England will have better days, if Scotland are really that good then Ireland are looking at a win against Italy and not much else. Rough couple of weeks ahead for the boys in green I think.

Ireland have the capability to beat any team in this tournament, Wales got very lucky. Still I was chuft. Got through them last few minutes ...JUST. When Wales gave them possession back in the 80th I was screaming at the telly! Thank god for Billy Boyd's over-enthusiastic kick, I felt for sure they were gonna get a try.
