Anyone into the rugby? I'm going to miss the game tomorrow but I'll have it on the radio :) Maybe we could try and place some predictions.

Wales
Ireland
England
Scotland
France
Italy

Slightly risky picks but I fancy Scotland doing prett well and England doing poorly. Wales for the win!

I know nothing about rugby nor do I care, but to decide who I think will win, I'm going to use a random number generator and set it to pick a randomly between 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. England is 1. Scotland is 2. Wales is 3. Ireland is 4. France is 5. Italy is 6.

The random number generate chose 6, so therefore I predict that Italy will win the 6 nations.

I think Afghanistan league will league, that's who I'm rooting for.

Does it matter? We all know New Zealand or South Africa will win the World Cup again.

Italia all the way!

I gotta laugh about all of Britains colonies that do better than it at sport (Aust, NZ, SA)

And before you say about the USA, only 14 states were British colonies (the original 13 and Hawaii).

but rugby and cricket were invented by you, and you are still terrible at them. Would anyone like me to link the last Ashes series?

That's just 1 sport, the Olympics and Commonwealth games are more representative because it's a mixture of sports.

lol owned by Clement... :D

I don't support England in any way, but to say they are terrible at sport is ridiculously ignorant.

Thomas, I have no doubt you do no sport at all. You evidently know nothing about sport.

You need more doubt in your life.

I got two wickets in a club cricket match last wednesday.

Cricket is mind numbingly terrible so I'm going to ignore it.

But England do reasonably well in Rugby and in (Real) Football, England doesn't have one sport that the specialise in and can't do anything else; like Wales and NZ. They do very well at lots of different things.

And the US are useless at every sport that other countries care about.

Wales will win, but Ireland could be a surprise, they did very well in the Autumn tests

Ireland winning wouldn't be the biggest shock imaginable...

Pretty sure Wales will come back strong soon!

I don't really follow Rugby, but it's fun to watch. I watched the England vs Wales match on Friday. Very good game! England turn out champions but I don't think we will win the cup.

wales may be terrible at rugby but at least they put on the longest fireworks display of all time. trollface.jpg
