Now I bet the Welsh will be calling for Gatland's scalp. Typical.

As an Englishman living and working in Wales - and working in an 97% Welsh speaking workplace who are all obsessed with Rugby, this has come as welcome relief.
Looking forward to Monday now - and I don't even like chase the egg.

I suspect most honest Welshmen will be happy to conceed to a superior side.
We all enjoy good attacking rugby,more power to those invovled.
Now,back to the dismal English..................

If Ireland can now just beat England then we are on the way to the title, hopefully.

well i wont be too disappointed if England lose as I think Ireland are the stand out team of the tournament and, should they win today, then I'll be routing for them to go all the way.Its about time the bog trotters pulled it off after 60 years of trying

Cracking game of rugby,some huge hits being made,the tackle made on Chabal(i think thats his name)was the best of the match.
Bone crunching.

Wales were well stuffed. Great game though, France were just too powerful on the day. Wales will win the Championship though, denying the Irish their Slam and sending them all home in tears while the English (and one Argentinian) cry foul and blame the nasty refs.
