you will stuff them. they are a rabble.

No action to be taken over Marlers comments to Lee, so he is available for Saturday.

And now World Rugby want an explanation regarding this decision.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

turgid stuff at the Millenium. really dull game.

Italy look good for their traditional end of tournament thrashing. Wales to score 50 or 60 at this rate.

 

[Dinowolf]

Wales confirm 2nd place with a 9-try thrashing of Italy 67-14

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Should have been many many more in the end.

 

[Donegal Wolf]

Whoever does take over Italy next year has a hell of a job on their hands.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Italy complaining about possible promotion/relegation into the six nations - that's only because they are likely to be the side in the frame

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

They would come straight back up. Much stronger than Romania, Georgia, Spain, Portugal or Russia

Probably (though there's always a possibility of a rogue result) - in reality don't want the hassle

Georgia are above Italy in the rankings and with most of their players playing professionally in France it would not be a forgone conclusion although Italy would win most of the time. Its will be grand when its Italy finishing last but Scotland were bottom last year and France were also 1 year recently, if they had to go into the play-off then it would be a different story about the rights or wrongs of it.

Good start by ireland, a bit riding on this game as Ireland ranked 7th and Scotland 9th, with the world cup draw at the end of the year neither will want out be out of the top 8 and stuck in a group of death at the WC

Frank would have been proud of that jinxing...

What a great try by Hogg

Scotland lead Ireland 10-9

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Wales had that problem. They really should draw the groups much nearer to the tournament.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

That should be a red card

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Surprise surprise Andy Nichol doesn't set it that way. The most biased commentator in sporting history.

 

[darlowolf64]

Good try, Danny...It's on

 

[darlowolf64]

French TV trying to make sure the ref reviews but the try stands

17-6 to England

 

[Bit on the shaggies]

Looks like we're doing our best to screw this up. I'm not convinced we will win.

 

[Bit on the shaggies]

Another fucking penalty...
