I haven't been posting here since ages... (hi all!) and I have to say that I was delighted by France's game. Looking forward to see how it'll be vs. England...

Cou cou Marco!

I owe you an email, depuis le temps!

England better play a damn sight better in Paris than they did in Rome otherwise we are baises.

Not impressed by the game of soccer they were playing yesterday, I must say. And Wilko seems to have lost his footing since he has been playing in the Sud Ouest too!

An email, I'd say so, yes...

And Wilko... erm... he's probably eating & drinking too many good things in the Sud Ouest

Actually no. That 'As long as we beat the English...' mentality is long gone. Our sights are set somewhat higher these days - I mean who cares if we beat a mediocre team that's in decline

France head & shoulders above the rest at the moment but not that surprising as they've won every single Six Nations the year after a Lions tour. Expect them to win the GS now although that's not to say they'll have another one of their inexplicable mindfucks against the English.

Wales are missing Phillips dreadfully - hopefully Peel will be back for the French game but we could really do with Phillips in the team for the trip to Croke Park. And we need to cut out the basic errors we are making - both of the Scottish tries came from Welsh mistakes rather than Scottish creativity.

Maybe because they'd tried wasting so much time in those last few minutes? Besides, it was Scotland's own fault for not having the nous to kick the restart straight into touch and thus end the game. Fantastic last 5 minutes though

Salut Marc, nice to see you're back.

I'm afraid I don't really care about Rugby results, though. Rugby - isn't that Commonwealth Handegg or something?

that's rich! you should be 0-2 down and deserved nothing from either game.

Thanks for the hint, I'll keep that in mind for future mockings.

Things are great, thanks

And in spite of a pathetic & scary 2nd half vs. Wales, we made this one also... we'll have to play really better if we want to make the grand slam this year.
