I do wish some of the bitter Welsh fuckers that I would class as proper friends would let it go. I am still getting "it isn't fair, isn't it" text messages now.Don't expect those to stop any time soon. Many fans are only just about getting over Andy Haden's dive in 1978.

That's something that's bugged me throughout the first two rounds, and on the odd occasions I've watched Super Rugby. It seems the refs barely bother to penalise a forward pass these days unless it's something Tom Brady and his ilk would be proud of. I'm all for a flowing game, but rules are rules...

Many fans are only just about getting over Andy Haden's dive in 1978.The penalty according to the referee was given for an infringement on Oliver and nothing to do with the Haden dive. There's some great accounts of that game & some great footage, Wales led 10-0 at one point.
One for Tom - https://mobile.twitter.com/welshbollocks/status/964917087218077696?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5EtweetSmiley thingy
It will, I think how England start will be key, they’ve been off to flyers the first 2 games and it’s down to Scotland to respond at home.

I can see England dominating the set piece and up front, starving the Scots of any good ball. England by a couple of scores.
England by 10+ at the weekend. I think the Irish will win as well. So should be a Grand Slam shoot out at Twickenham as long as we don't catch the French on a mad good day.
