Six Nations 2014

First topic message reminder :

Plain and simple, it's the best time of the year. Who will win and why?

Scotland and Italy should do well, come to think of it so should England based on that thinking!

Ahh... but that will fatigue Wales, maybe England some .. Ireland hardly at all.
So it is between Ireland and France then   

I don't get why France are being so highly rated,
 
They are without Dusautoir which is a massive loss and with a new cap at No10 they won't be up to speed just yet.
 
England have a great shout as long as their forwards turn up and Farrell kicks his goals and the defence is firm I see no reason why England should lose.

1.Wales
2.should have would have could have
3.dam slow start
4.well we tried
5.ya we didn't get the wooden spoon.

I see it as:

Eng
Ir
Wa
Sc
Fr
It

Based on the fixtures I would say that England will win it this year but without a GS.

A very good solid team, not the most attractive team to watch but very effective.
