i just knew the french would muck up there

they were the same at twickenham, you can always rely on a mistake somewhere from them, one last chance


oooeeeee

[bawheid]

I think that’s justice done.

Crazy game. After all the talk of the Welsh discipline being key. It’s surely there lack of discipline at the end that cost them.

[cabbageandribs1875]

i agree with that commentator dude, the french should have lost the points for the Covid call-off against Scotland






and another £29 for both sides scoring at least one try in each half


tiz all good from the rugby today :)

Wales have had significant refereeing decisions going their way throughout the Championship. Their last try looked held up to me.

They’re obviously a decent side but Scotland would have had them but for the red card. The refereeing in their game against England was terrible too.

Yep don't get how the welsh try was given. Typical France to start playing better when a man short. So many decisions think France deserved to win.

Inverdale going on about “grand larceny” now. Ridiculous!

[cabbageandribs1875]

anything but Larceny Mr TV Dude

[heretoday]

Wales lost some discipline towards the end which was strange for them. It's up to the Scots to deny France next Friday. I hope we can field a full squad.

I must say I couldn't take my eyes off the rugby today. It's a great sport when it's played at the top level. For such a wild, loose game it all comes down to inches in the end!

Yep didn't understand that comment.

i didn't realise France are still 5 points behind Wales, France need to beat Scotland by at least 21 points to win it on points difference or a four try bonus point, i think they will possibly do the four try bonus point way, i don't think they will beat Scotland by 21 points though


like ties against ireland our record against france is very poor the last 30 games

w -7
L -23


i can remember back in the 80's/90's it was Scotland/France/Scotland/France etc etc


i see the WRU have asked for the abuse against their players to stop, they're still in with a good shout of winning it, i must admit to thinking for a long time now the Welsh can be a tad of the moaning minnie nature if losing :)

They surely need a bonus point and a 21 point win? If they don’t get 4 tries but win by 21 they’ll finish 1 point behind Wales.

ah, from the beeb sport page, i misread i thought they meant OR at least 21 points


If France are to deny Wales the Six Nations title, they must beat Scotland with a four-try bonus point and by at least 21 points to take it on points difference

Saturday was a great day of rugby. Wales luck eventually ran out, ironically when they were playing their best rugby if the championship. France are so hot and cold its unreal. Ireland looked very strong against England. England have gone backwards under Jones and big battering rams and kick kick kick are holding them back. Scotland looked great against Italy but Italy are very poor at the moment.

Edinburgh hammered again last night. Been a thoroughly depressing season, and any hope of Europe next season have now been extinguished.

[DaveF]

Rabbits v Roosters derby just now in the Aussie RL.

[Sylar]

There's not really much on the line for us tonight obviously, but I find myself nervous this morning.

It would be fantastic to beat them on their own patch and potentially finish second (though we need to win by 8 points for that).

I'd much rather Wales won the Six Nations, so I hope we can do them a favour and make that happen!

8 point victory to finish 2nd for the first time since 5 became 6. I hope that’s a big incentive.

Discipline will be our undoing again.

[cabbageandribs1875]

can't believe i've missed 35 mins of this, i was watching the rugby league oh great timing tho for a french try

[cabbageandribs1875]

[Sylar]

I really wish they’d stop allocating English referees to us. Some pish decisions from Wayne Barnes again!

[cabbageandribs1875]

[Mr Grieves]

[cabbageandribs1875]

[Just_Jimmy]

I'm English as probably most know but supporting Hibs I dont have the usual English/Scottish petty hatred as many on both side of the border possess. Its a long story but after England Ive followed Scottish rugby for many years. Dont get me wrong I'm a proud Englishmen so the red rose comes first but i think Scotland have been brilliant this season, certainly not wooden spoon contenders with Italy anymore but playing a very positive and exciting role in this seasons 6 nations. Best Scotland team Ive seen for ages.
