It ends today, and at first glance it’s Ireland’s to lose. Second too, but a third you can maybe see a route. Scotland beat Ireland and England beat France, some bonus point arithmetic in there too. But first…
Wales v Italy
Spoon decider here. Italy off the back of a well earned win vs Scotland. Wales licking wounds, but keen to avoid the spoon. Hope for an early try or this could be a nervy knock fest
Ireland vs Scotland
In theory Scotland could still win, but really Toonie hasn’t produced any goods in this fixture in the last 9. Ireland have been not as good as 2023, but a shock last week will see them fired up. Triple crown is on the line here too
France vs England
Hold on to your livers, late 9pm local kick off here. And if Scotland somehow do England a favour, this one will be juicy. Even without an earlier upset both teams looking for a strong finish and to build. Probably the game of the day, if you mind it tomorrow!
Who’s out? Any predictions pre matches?
Home, home, home my predictions, wishing we see an upset for the middle to keep the last game alive. In the pub all day, babysitter booked, yaas
Sam Warburton predicted two home wins for Wales right before the loss to France. I’m hoping he’s wrong again. Wales have been the worst team of the tournament.
Unfortunately I think Ireland will seal it. Can’t see them losing two in a row.
Away for the last one. Wales were rubbish but France gave them two very soft tries. If England can get near the Ireland performance level again they will get plenty of tries.
Fingers crossed. Half time and Wales are struggling…
I know I’m saying this half way through the first game, but it was what I thought after last week too
Away, Home, Away
Wales have been really poor and France didn’t beat them by much, so they both lose this weekend and Ireland take revenge for last week on Scotland.
The question I’ve got is “do Italy get 4th in the final table over France?”. If they can can 4 true over Wales they can.
Morning prep, air fryer food and plenty of beer. France showed some better attacking form last week, but against that Wales defense it’s not saying much, their own defense was full of holes but can England blitz keep on improving? Whatever, should be a good day.
