15:32    Wales  getting  a  right  tonking  !! 

Merciful  Heavens,  Wales  battering  away  at  the  Green n' Gold  Devils  for  5mins  or  so  then  1  little  error  and  THWACK  !!  another  try  for  Aussies.  Now  if  they  had  somebody  who  could  kick  they  would  be  long  time  out  of  sight !

Well, South Africa only just scraped a draw in the closing moments! We'll don the Barbarians.

What a fabulous effort and result for Ireland.  When did they last beat New Zealand?

Their 111 year wait is over! Ireland have never beaten the All Blacks, they managed a draw in 1973 and came very close in 2013 (they were winning 22-17) but conceeded a penalty with less than a minute of the game remaining. The Blacks still had to get to the other end of the pitch and finally managed a try 2 minutes into overtime which was converted! 

So this win is a momentous occasion, even if the All Blacks were probably not at their strongest (I wonder if Messers Carter & McCaw would have made any difference!?!??)

Sorry but it was Men against Boys in the Welsh game.Lucky it was not a cricket score. Where now!!

Great weekend for watching games. Just a pity that the England game is on Sky, so I'll only see the highlights after the other 2 games on Saturday.

Great game going on at the moment - Scotland v Australia. Missed the first 5 minutes (still out with the dogs) but have already seen 2 superbly worked tries, one for each side. If it carries on this way it'll be some match! 

The Scotland/Australia game was well worth watching, and although the Wales/Argentina wasn't in the same class it was exciting towards the end with the scores being so close. England came out on top against S.Africa, the first time in 10 attempts, and scored some great tries too. Their game against Australia in a couple of weeks time should be a belter.

Yes really looking forward to England v Australia. Thought England were the strongest of all teams performing this weekend. Felt for the Scots, just a score away, shame they couldn't hold on!
