Six Nations 2009

[swiss miss]

Who will win this years Six Nations tournament??

Wales looked best in the friendlies last year but will the others be able to step it up..... will England even be able to beat Italy on saturday, im a little worried!

EDIT: p.s. this is a Rugby Union tournament where the 6 best teams in the Northern Hemisphere play each other once (either at home or away depending on where they played last year) and receive points if they win matches which contribute to their standings in a "tournament table". The table topper wins the trophy at the end of the 5 games. Wales won last years' tournament.

[hoos]

Rugby, really? just kidding, I just thought it was going to be 'futbol'

[Carping]

i know next to nothing about this so called rugby but im loyal to me own im gonna vote england :S

[Sir Brian]

:smiley: I adore the 6 Nations. :smiley:

Brings back memories of sitting in front of a roaring fire and watching the likes of Gavin Hastings, Niel Jenkins, Keith Wood, Rob Andrews ripping it up on the Beeb...

Good Times!


And now i get to get wankered in the pub watching it...

Good Times!


:smiley: Wales are the best side in Europe but i think France will sneak it, because the 2 teams meet in Paris rather than Cardiff. No Grand Slams though...

[ZERAT]

Scotland all the way.

[BIGRICK]

I voted for England as im patriotic.


Also, Putting down Wales twice on the vote options doesnt really increase there chances :haha:

[shmokethedope]

i play alot of rugby but havent really been paying attention to whats going to at the moment but i find the rugby welsh play boring and hope they dont win. i hear cipriani wont be playing for england in the first game to so that could cost them. i would love england to win but wont be to bothered who else wins aslong as the french dont!

[BIGRICK]

I second that!!! No win for the french... :spit: :spit:

[Sir Brian]

"Welsh rugby borin".......



No.

Not this year.

Not this decade.

Never.

[shmokethedope]

the rugby they play is boring. similar to englands play, mainly forwards taking it on and not much attacking flare in the backs . im not saying its bad rugby but it is boring to watch.
from what i watched of the autumn series some of englands new young backs particularly armitage and flutey seem to have great attacking flare which makes the games more interesting.

[Sir Brian]

[ZERAT]

FOOTBALL IS FOR PEOPLE NOT LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE SHOWN A RUGBY BALL WHEN YOUNG

wales are down 2 times

[Jennabutala]

ofcourse England , nobody else can win the tournament

[shmokethedope]

after the way wales backs have been playing i have been proved wrong haha.

the good news is france are looking shit and i cant see them beating england or wales!

[Pleb]

Either gonna be Wales or Ireland....I backed Wales, but it all comes down to that head to head. I'm gonna change my mind now and back Ireland on this poll :)

[shmokethedope]

i dont think ireland will do it, i think it will be wales with england coming second, Ireland third
would love it if England won tho!

[Stinger]

I'm embarrassed to say that I thought this was a thread about the Iriquois Nation. *blush*

lol, if you watched the rugby world cup you would realise how shit americans are at rugby.
only good thing you had was some pro sprinter on the wing, still was rubbish. its a completely different game and its so stereotypical americans thinking that they can win everything and anything!

Well Done!

The Irish have deserved the grandslam for many years, shame O'Sullivan could never deliver it. :angry2:


I was too hammered by then to remember the last 20/30 minutes. Had to watch it again on the iPlayer yesterday :$
