For me, the most exciting tournament in the sporting calendar as the 6 Nations lock horns and renew old rivalries and friendships over the coming weeks, with the added bonus of a World Cup to look forward to later in the year. Undoubtedly, the Irish are strong favourites again this year. Scotland start with 2 home fixtures, Wales are unbeaten in their last 9 fixtures and England are promising plenty of power. The French are at sixes and sevens whilst the brilliant Sergio Parisse can expect another season without a win.

A competition like no other.....let the games begin!

Brilliant win for Wales and a thoroughly deserved Grand Slam! What a great way for Warren Gatland to end his 6 nations career. And who'd have thought, 2 months ago, with no Leigh Halfpenny and 16-0 down to France after 40 minutes that it would end this way? It's been a truly remarkable tournamenthe all round! smile

(Still hard to see beyond the All Black's for the World Cup though!)

Excellent first half from England. Just a question, Curry's try was pretty much like that of an old fashion, now illegal, flying wedge, why is this allowed? Surely equally dangerous in these days!

There is no doubt about it, Warren Gatland is THE Coach.

Forget Jones & Schmidt.

Da Iawn  Cymru.

Great entertainment on the final day of fixtures. The Azzurri had more than enough chances to record a win against the French in an entertaining game.

Wales snubbed out the Irish in typical Welsh fashion by not allowing them any ball and when they did attack, Wales defence was superb. Only one try scored and congratulations to them on winning the Grand Slam

The most entertaining game was the Calcutta Cup which really was a game of 2 halves! Incredible comeback from Scotland and I thought they were unlucky not to win. Fabulous game of rugby though!

So now it's off to Japan in September and I would back England to win it if the game lasted 40 minutes, but think the Welsh probably have the best chance of the home nations.
