Predictions for round three...?

So...! France and Ireland missed round two, rescheduled for march forth.

Who will win the next games?

England vs Wales

Ireland vs Italy

Scotland vs France

England, Ireland and I honestly don't know for the last one but I voted Scotland.

So nobody thinks France will beat Scotland? Scotland fans really never learn do they? We lost on Sunday, right? Like we seem to lose all the time. Forget the 'gutsy' performance or whatever else you want to call it - until we win at least half of our '50/50' matches (instead of losing practically all of them) I will never say we are going to win again. Also, it's FRANCE. Their counter attacks are the best in the 6 nations, and our scramble defence in broken field is generally poor. Add on to that that we knock on the ball / make silly mistakes all over the park more than any other team and it's the style of play we should expect to lose to easiest (Ireland on the contrary being a style of play we would expect to beat easiest - which shows in our head-to-heads)

Elsewhere, Wales France is looking like a grand slam showdown - Wales have got perfect momentum I feel so will easily dispatch or England.

Ireland to get a traditional Italian scare, but too much for them in Dublin.

[On a sidenote, I think Italy will play the best they've ever played this tournament yet not win a single match - funny huh]

I voted England, Italy, France.

I will go for Wales shading England, but it will be a tough match, Ireland will be too much for Italy.

France and Scotland is a toss up. Maybe france by a few.

Have decided reason is over.rated and deciding.with the heart painful. so Scotland by 25

Looks like we should be in for a treat with Everyone predicting both England vs Wales and Scotland vs France to be close matches. A few reckon italy will give a spirited game in Dublin too.

Wales
Ireland
France

Have gone with

Wales - Heart, but will my nerves hold out for a 18-21 victory

Ireland - Head, Ireland will be itching to get back into action and will be just to strong for Italy 32-12

France - Head, France I feel again will have to much for Scotland but it will be closer than most predict and if its a wet cold day then even closer, 12-18

So you're asking us who's going to march forth?

I think Wales by 10, Ireland by 10 and France by 15

I voted Wales with my head (I hope I am very wrong) though I think it will be close, the Ireland and Scotland- eventually that team has got to click and I can't see France GSing this year so it may as well be this game they lose (ok, I'm hopeful more than anything...)

Wales - close but will edge it with their creative backs.
France - again close as Scotland continue to improve but fail to finish chances.
Ireland - by a cricket score. They are still hurting and the nonsense last week has left Italy to face their wrath.

It's England, Ireland and France isn't it?

Though why we have to have yet another predictions thread beats me!

I am going to make my week three predictions, but then I also want to implore upon you guys whether it is possible that my predictions I made for week two, EVEN THOUGH ON THE WRONG THREAD may count towards the competition.

I will accpet if you don't.

Round three.

England 20 - Wales 20
Ireland 28 - Italy 12
France 18 - Scotland 10

biltong, this isn't the official predictions competition thread either!

Ok, I give up.

We need the competition predictions on a temporary sticky.

I am not playing anymore.
