True, generally speaking I find the ITV coverage of the 6 Nations to be a lot better than BBC. Nice handling by the French for the try, still think England will nick this though.

purpleronnie Posted 4 February 2017 Share Posted 4 February 2017 Had France at around 7/1 - couldn't believe the odds, but England will probably snatch it at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'll score a try and knick it by under a score. But then I've made some awful predictions today so what do I know. Score from this position and you'll probably win mind.

SpacedX Posted 11 February 2017 Share Posted 11 February 2017 Really looking forward to this. As they said on the BBC this morning, whether you take the lid off the Principality or not, it'll still be a cauldron. Eddie Jones appears to be opting for a bruising back row. Obviously Vunipola is a massive loss but I'll be interested to see Clifford in for Wood, who for all the acclaim against France wasn't explosive or creative enough imo for an openside flanker. I predict a nervous start for England and a series of unforced/handling errors by Wales which will allow them into the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye the roof stuff is a load of rubbish, it's just a distraction from talking about the teams and a bit of mind games from Jones. I think England by about ten points with Wales not really turning up and starting slow - again. I hope I'm wrong but I don't see much changing for Wales without a considerable overhaul in back room staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzy Posted 11 February 2017 Share Posted 11 February 2017 There's nothing in sport like the Welsh national anthem belted out at home. I'm a proud Englishman but the Welsh anthem is something else. GSTQ is shite in comparison sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butler has long been the incredibly biased voice of BBC rugby. He also doesn't like Leicester, so he's doubly annoying. Is it wrong of me to long for the days of unbiased quality commentary?
