    I predict that the game will be very heated.

    That we can definitely agree on. The atmosphere in the stadium will be amazing (it was for Wales vs Canada, of all games).
  • Also, Wales are 1 behind England in the total number of tounament wins (that includes home nations, 5 nations and 6 nations).

    They're actually 1 tournament win behin England in the 6 Nations only too! So if Wales did win this tournament it would all be equal!

    England have had 2 more grand slams and 4 more tripple crowns though.

    I am very pleased with that game, Ashton has to be one of the best finishers in worls rugby at the moment, always in the right place at the right time.

    Good win for England.

    Good win for Englang.
    He needs to watch that try celebration before he he gets the ball down though - he's going to drop one of them one day.
    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.

    Like this!

    Never really been a fan of massive dives when you score a try, once you are over the line just get the ball down and don't mess around.

    well, I was there on Friday.... and I'm not going to bore you with my match summery/report, as I'm sure its much the same as many others you have already heard or read.... all I will say is that was the best atmosphere of ANY rugby game iv ever been too.


    INCREDIBLE.


    disappointing result, but it was fairly close at least.

    Lamont got on the pitch 10 minutes early, but he did make a difference, he'll kill england's kicking game.
  • Chris Ashton is officially on fire! That guy is just in the right place at the right time! Equalled the record for the most tries scored in a six nations tournament in two games.

    Pretty decent weekend of games, Scotland did play terribly though, apart from Lamont who played pretty well. He wont kill England though.
  • The guy that got kicked in the face should have got yellow carded... he shouldn't have been subbed.

    That really annoyed me.

    well said, the refereeing was terrible. no consistency.

    although there was a lot of backchat in both of saturdays matches. not a good sign

    an interesting game, great to see Wales playing properly again, if only for the first 20 mins. Scotland were pee poor though. So many mistakes it was a joke.


    I dont really support England, but I am half English, and that was an AWESOME win, so get in!

    how can you be half english?

    I agree, good job he got kicked in the face really or else he would have gone through with the tackle and the other guy could have been seriously injured. I think the fact that he was injured etc stopped the yellow card, which it certainly shouldn't.

    The refereeing was certainly not very consistent.

    i think lee byrne saw him coming and 'accidentally' left his boot there :lol: it deffo should have been a yello card though

    but yeah, it wasn't a vintage display but at least we won :lol:
