    Rome

    Went to an AB game there, epic. Way better than any time I've been to twickers. Proper carnival atmosphere before and after, outside the stadium is fantastic.

    But maybe I was influenced by being able to get a porchetta baguette from the van on the way in.

    Did you wear jeans and brown shoes ?

    @MN5 Jeans and trainers mostly.

    One time on Super Saturday in late March, it was about 20 degrees so shorts and jandals.

    Sounds like you missed @Bones meme earlier in the thread. It's awesome.

    @sparky Of course. But you can get that at any European club match as well. I’m looking at it from an on-field perspective.

    England U20s came back from a 16-0 half time deficit to beat Wales 19-16

    Very good match to watch despite the conditions

    England never gave up

    Wales had the chances to win but weren't accurate enough

    Oh what I'd give for a 3 point defeat today!

    Does the Wales U20 side give you any hope Mike? Any new exciting players we should watch out for?

    Don’t want to hear anyone try to tell me how good this comp is. Oh the tradition, oh the history, oh the pageantry.

    Nowhere near the quality of the RC. Autumn Internationals much more interesting.

    Luckily, the TV has an off switch….

    Outside half looked good

    Tom Bowen on the wing is our LBB of France

    Good, solid team performance with plenty of dog

    We have good players

    I think our game plan is lacking

    Crikey I reckon.

    The Six Nations is awesome and this is coming from a Scotland fan.

    Any sporting occasion that has been going for that long is going to have people going on about the history of it all. That's sport.

    Imagine folks on a rugby forum saying they admire and enjoy one of the world's most famous rugby competitions. Whatever will those crazy people say next?

    As an ex-pat kiwi who mainly follows SH rugby, the 6Ns has become a must watch for me. The quality of the play has improved hugely in the last decade.

    Add in that it's a real competition with the winner more often than not decided on the last WE (unlike the RC) and it's an absolute highlight of the rugby year - without the angst of my team losing.

    @Catogrande Didn’t say I wasn’t watching. Just don’t need to hear about how great it is when this year it clearly isn’t.

    Based on what ?

    Italy caused an upset in the first weekend, that's great for the tournament.

    There's a bunch of huge games coming up, what is there not to like ?

    Perhaps maybe not if you happen to be a Scot or Welsh supporter...

    I enjoyed both matches, albeit the Italian win more than the Welsh hammering
