Okay, first weekend over & I'm opening the discussion.
I thought I'd leave it to someone else, but nothing happened.
We (Wales) lost our first match, which is why I was putting off starting this.

First weekend:
Wales   22    Ireland 30
England 38    Scotland 18
Italy   23    France   18

Some very good rugby played.

Next weekend:
9 Feb:
14:30 Scotland v Italy
17:00 France v Wales
10 Feb:
15:00 Ireland v England



C'mon Wales

Wales were disappointing - they played the first half at training pace. They may still recover if they play the rest of the matches as they played the second half. England looked pretty good, with Scotland not quite at their best, and Italy showed that no team is going to walk over them this year.

Agreed - some very good rugby, and an interesting Six Nations in prospect.

They just gotta win something sometime.

We won our first two matches but did not want to gloat as it can all turn to poo so quickly, but do think England have the basis of a very god side for the world cup no matter what happens in the 6 nations win or loose. I think both Wales and France are going to be very dangerous for us and then having said that Italy is a worry as well after the France game.

hi

Watched most of the games on TV.

It is going well for England but I don't think that there are any easy games these days in this Championship.

England's win in Dublin was not pretty to watch but as anyone who knows Ireland and Irish rugby will know that Ireland are always tough to beat , especially in Dublin.

So for me this is the best performance so far.

Like others above I think there is better to come from Wales and France so there is still much to play for.

For England ....so far so good.

Cheers

Healy to miss two six nations for stamping on Cole's ankle.

Ireland will also be missing Sexton and McCarthy against Scotland.
