6 Nations 2020

Very disappointed with England's performance in the latter stages of the game, in particular (and not for the first time) Ellis Genge. After watching a short biopic on him, it is still very evident this young man is just a thug, trying to 'better' himself in a rugby shirt. He's not the first of his kind, but with technology now controlling the game, there's no place for him.

On a slightly lighter note, the half-time chat ended with everyone in the ITV studio in fits of laughter following the breaking of rule 9.27, by Joe Marler on Alun Wyn Jones  'A player must not do anything that is against the spirit of good sportsmanship including but not limited to grabbibg, twisting or squeezing the genitals'  Gareth Thomas is thinking about coming out of retirement!

And finally, I have a minor issue with Nellie's comment above....It was 13 against 16 for the final few minutes 

The 16th having the most impact. Indiscipline is the scourge that loses good teams games it usually gifts points to the opponents & kills the morale of the hard working players☹️

But which one was the 16th player, the ref or the video analyst? Perhaps you should have said 13 against 17!!

Anyway, come on Scotland, you can do England a big favour by beating the French today. Just got back from our walk in time to watch the match.

Cheering for Scotland today, that’s a first🤣🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Scotland played really well throughout the game and deserved their win.

Well done Scotland

Great win for Scotland, and for England too. Just need a draw between Ireland and France next week ( should it get played ), as I've every faith in England beating Italy when ever they play. Not that I'm biased.

If it's delayed by much, Nell, even Marler could be available again, should the Coach decide to select him, which I most certainly would NOT !!  Such conduct has no place on any sports field.

Well it is now just about over, with the closing minutes of the France/Ireland game going the way of the French. The result means that England are this year's champions, after they got the bonus point son against Italy earlier today.

Well done all teams in this extraordinary year and congratulations to England.
