Final table will be as follows.
England
France
Ireland
Scotland
Wales
ItalyMy guess would be that both the top 2 and the bottom two may well be the other way round.
Cool. @MiketheSnow and any Italian ferners we may have will be bloody excited about their teams fighting for a Grand Slam !

France or England to take the whole thing. Ireland looking in a bit of decline.
Huge Wooden Spoon game between Wales and Italy.
I think Wales for the Wooden Spoon, Italy tracking strongly last season and given the kerfuffle with the Welsh rugby clubs this may impact on their squad.
I’d love to see France take it out.

Did the welsh players start their strike in November?

Still some threat of it apparently starting next week or so I think.
Hopefully nothing comes of it. -

Good that we (NZers) will get some rugby to watch on Waitangi Day morning. Thursday night seems to be an odd day to start the tournament.
I heard it’s so it doesn’t clash with the winter Olympic opening ceremony.
The French broadcaster has rights to both so scheduled the game to Thursday so as not to clash. -

No. Just fuck off.
Could cram about 5 or 6 in before a scrum is set, to be fair.

Probably helps to keep it free-to-air, to be fair... Presume you'd prefer this to having to pay for TNT or Premier Sports.

It was more the ads while scrums were being set which triggered me. Next it will be sponsor messages as the hooker dries the ball for a lineout throw.

As long as they don't miss any action

British law means that certain sports events are "crown jewels" and have to be on free to air. The Six Nations is one.
