    For those who didn't catch the results:

    France 21-16 Wales
    Scotland 26-6 Italy
    Ireland 14-13 England

    I don't know, I would have put money on all those results, although I was hoping Wales would win so that they could have their complacent game against us! Hopefully the new stadium will be finished for next time round, so Ireland should never play England in Croker again, the stress was unbearable.....

    I just hope that the result has beaten the complacency out of our guys. I know a win is a win, but such a close score against the current England side should have worried them. Underestimating Scotland would be a bad mistake.....

    3 down, 2 to go.

    Why not buy a cheaper kilt for the rugby matches, I have 2 of the cheaper versions which are more or less designed for the rough and tumble of a rugby or football match. Your girlfriend is absolutely right, you can't wear such an expensive piece of clothing at a rugby match

    Well, I'm still laughing at everybody who sneezed at Ireland. Grand Slam, anyone?

    Greg, Ireland only just beat England 14-13 and Wales beat England 23-15.

    OK, Wales won't now get the Grand Slam (as they DID last year!) but are still in the running for the Triple Crown!

    It ain't over!

    Yes, BUT Wales lost to France (FRANCE, for God's sake!) 21-16. How did Ireland do against France? 30-21? Yeah, Trefor, Wales had it's moment, but it's Ireland's time to shine!

    The match was played on a FRIDAY which was somewhat unusual to say the least.

    And Ireland are coming to Wales' home turf!
