Saturday

1415 Wales v Ireland
1645 England vs Scotland

Sunday

1500 Italy vs France

All GMT for timezones, and what a feast again. Wales with new management, hoping against hope to at least give Ireland a scare. Ireland resting a couple of players even

An England side that have a bit of bounce after stealing a win vs France last week vs an underfiring Scottish side that have won this fixture the last 4 times. This one on paper is too close to call!

Then an Italian side at home vs France that is licking their wounds. A draw last year, will Italy go one better?

As always, predictions, reactions, and comments always appreciated. Happy six nations all

The 20 minute red card was interesting today. I wonder if Wales may have had that if it wasn't for Aki coming on to replace Ringrose. I fully get the whole "punish the player but not the team" aspect of it, but after so many games without a win and then being so close against one of the best, I felt so bad for Wales today. They played so well.

And as an England supporter: I love that we won but I agree that try was held up....

Yup, I'm worried about Wales next round for sure. England got out of jail again this weekend, I bet you are French next weekend!
