    @Dodge

    If Borthwick [icks the run on side that Ruck.com has suggested has been leaked, then I'd totally agree with you. At this moment in time I am still clinging on to some faint hope.

    Jonathan Davies planning to retire from commentating. Where will we be without his incredibly perceptive "Space our wide!" . reading of the game?

    Not sure if there’s a separate thread but I started watching series 2 of Full Contact. Gave it about 10 minutes. Would love to know how the producers really feel about it.

    well the fact they've cancelled Series 3 before they even released Series 2 shows you exactly how they feel IMO. Rugby is stupid, Living with Lions is the single best sporting documentary i've ever seen, Full Contact Series 1 was a painful set piece nonsense, no genuine changing room access etc.

    But it did give us the epic quote from Russel “I’m the Lionel Messi of rugby”. Worth watching just for that

    Gonna go out on a limb and pick England to beat Ireland. Might be totally wrong but when I see Conor Murray and Cian Healy still getting picked and then they have a so-so first five…

    Pendergast is already more than so-so

    Not seeing it so far. Smith looks a much better 10.

    Gotta take that on the chin. England very poor in the second half.

    Pretty generous putting Wales all the way up with Italy 😉

    I’d also put England alongside Scotland given their World rankings and their recent head to head results with the mighty Scots winning four in a row against the auld enemy

    England are probably more likely to knock over France or Ireland though ( well in the case of the latter not this year )

    Very generous to the poorly coached England. They should have snapped up razor, then both teams would be better...

    France & Ireland
    Scotland and England
    Italy and Wales

    In those tiers, in those orders. If Scotland win at twickenham again in 3 weeks time then i'm happy to drop England into the third tier.

    Yeah I’m quite shocked England are considered in the top tier by @MiketheSnow, I thought he knew Rugby ?

    Mind you Scotland are due a hiding from England, it’s been awhile.

    ( getting excuses out of the way early )

    They lost with a BP despite playing like headless chooks for most of the match and being on the wrong side of poor refereeing

    Lowe goes off for 10 and we could have seen a very different result

    If Wales lose to Italy badly on Saturday then questions should be asked concerning why they get a Six Nations place ahead of Georgia

    The Wales Italy game will be a banger
