It ends today, and at first glance it’s Ireland’s to lose. Second too, but a third you can maybe see a route. Scotland beat Ireland and England beat France, some bonus point arithmetic in there too. But first…
Wales v Italy
Spoon decider here. Italy off the back of a well earned win vs Scotland. Wales licking wounds, but keen to avoid the spoon. Hope for an early try or this could be a nervy knock fest
Ireland vs Scotland
In theory Scotland could still win, but really Toonie hasn’t produced any goods in this fixture in the last 9. Ireland have been not as good as 2023, but a shock last week will see them fired up. Triple crown is on the line here too
France vs England
Hold on to your livers, late 9pm local kick off here. And if Scotland somehow do England a favour, this one will be juicy. Even without an earlier upset both teams looking for a strong finish and to build. Probably the game of the day, if you mind it tomorrow!
Who’s out? Any predictions pre matches?
Sam Warburton predicted two home wins for Wales right before the loss to France. I’m hoping he’s wrong again. Wales have been the worst team of the tournament.
Unfortunately I think Ireland will seal it. Can’t see them losing two in a row.
Away for the last one. Wales were rubbish but France gave them two very soft tries. If England can get near the Ireland performance level again they will get plenty of tries.
Fingers crossed. Half time and Wales are struggling…
