just a point

Thanks for running Murf.

[Mo Bot]

Just a point . Look forward to the next round.

[jimmy ching]

Three 50/50 games this week. This could get bloody. This is the 1st time I've seen it like this. Roll on the weekend. The games should be fascinating to watch.

[Moist von Lipwig]

I am on a roll at the minute.

[Surprised]

So close.
Thanks for running murf

[Spinynorman]

[Ave a banana]

Very cruel draw, The Connaught Cup, the 1st TV pick

Very cruel indeed. One of the top two seeds is going out.

I think Murf has been warming his balls

[Ave a banana]

Italy 3
France 3
England 14

( subject to many, many changes of mind except The English Victory. )

[murf]

I think Murf has been warming his balls

No warming of balls have been involved in any of my draws since we stopped doing premiership predictions where Kylie was the regular picker delving into my velvet bag.

[Mick MacPaddywack]

I think Ave a Banana should keep off the hard stuff ... gifting Jimmy C the win by suggesting England might win by more than the narrowest of margins

The Irish may be bruised by their encounter with Wales, but they do love a fight.

MickMacP's predictions:
Italy by 3
France by 7
Ireland by 2

prone to numerous changes between now & then

[jimmy ching]

Shhhhhhh... Mick!

[Ave a banana]

Shhhhhhh... Mick!

Don't panic Jimmy, the only change in the England margin of victory I'm likely to do is make it greater.

So Tuilagi's now fit. mmmmmm..............

[jimmy ching]

Don't worry our Israeli will stop your Samoan

[bluenosey]

Scotland 7
France 14
Ireland 3

[unc.si.]

What happened in round 1? Did I win??


sorry - went away for a long weekend and forgot to go back and amend my predictions

It was all rather close and I'm afraid you narrowly missed out....

[Mick MacPaddywack]

Italy 6
France 10
England 10

[jimmy ching]

This weekend is going to be fun. By Sunday morning Italy could be top.
The English team should be suffering from the craic the night before. All those Guinness farts in the dressing room should disorientate them a little bit. Unfortunately for England Tuilagi and Vunipola would have discovered that poteen was as good as kava.
Farrels Grandad would have had a strong word with him about his families origins.
Tom Wood and Twelvestrees will be regretting bumping in to a tree surgeon at the Temple Bar.
Poor Ben Morgan is still searching for his crutches.
Roll on the match.
