I'm so confused by England rugby at the moment. Great performance but so many questions. Ireland didn't really have to work for any of the points they scored. We were aggressive. We were fast. We did the basics very well. But we still nearly lost.

I really enjoyed the debutants performance today, played the full match too. Feyi-Waboso will hopefully keep his place. Fair play to Feyi-Waboso, although born and raised in Wales he elected to play for England on Ancestral Grounds |

If you could avoid being recognised as Welsh though you would go out of your way to wouldn't you? Very clever lad by the sounds of it, studying medicine too. |

Don't get many sporting days better than yesterday.
Stoke winning.
Scotland losing.
England beating Ireland.
.... unfortunately we were also playing Cricket but less said about that the better.

I donāt mind the Scots always admired their tenacity though I was pleased Italy won. Enjoy the Welsh getting beaten at Rugby far more though only with rugby. If any of the 4 nations are in the big footy tournaments always like to see them do well. |

If any of the 4 nations are in the big footy tournaments always like to see them do well. I enjoy watching Scotland and Ireland, generally root for both of them. I'd love to see Scotland win the 6 Nations, it needs it. But I think that Italy victory was my favourite match of the tournament so far, the game needs it. Wales are chippy fuckers, got no time for them. Got some excellent players though and have always been a Sam Warburton fan. There's a great documentary about him knocking about and his autobiography is a good read. France, meh. There's nothing better than watching them get beaten at home, but whoever employed Sean Edwards needs free snails and frogs legs for life. It's going to be like Clough and England, the RFU are going to ignore Edwards being involved in the setup through pure snobbery. |

I can see progress in this very young Welsh team. It took nearly 10 years to get Ireland where they are now

It took nearly 10 years to get Ireland where they are now I thought the backs lost the plot a bit and some of the passing was suicidal but that should go with experience. The forwards competed pretty well but they started to panic and lose shape and discipline imho but the French are a formidable pack. |

It will come I think it will you can see what they are trying to do and Gatland is no mug I believe he's an excellent coach. |

Very impressed by Italy in this tournament. Surely has to be their best ever 6 nations? 2 wins and a draw. Only losing narrowly to England too. Take a bow lads

Tremendous performance from Italy, they've certainly made progress this year. Wales look the rugby version of Stoke at the moment.

Incredibly if Scotland beat Ireland they win the Tripple Crown, but not the 6 nations
Just shows how massive the defeat to Italy, and the final minute robbery against France was
.ha fucking ha..

We need a second division with Spain Portugal Georgia and Romania for example. Promotion 1 up 1 down. It will grow the game better and if my wales have to have a season there so be it |

Well I missed that too but it sounds like Borthwick is making a good point to his doubters?
I was definitely worried about him, but he's managed some good results.
