Re: Rugby Union
It was very unlucky for England yesterday.
Am I the only one who supports Italy during the 6 Nations? I always do, whoever they are playing. It seems to me that, like America with 'soccer', if they put the money and training into rugby they could be quite good at it and maybe win the 6 Nations one year.

Re: Rugby Union
I'm a mongrel, and have ancestors from all 6 Nations apart from Italy. So probably why I support Italy, as I wouldn't know which one to cheer one!

Re: Rugby Union
Ireland gave their Six Nations title hopes a huge fillip with a surprisingly one-sided victory over a poor Wales in Dublin.

Now this will be displeasing for those Welsh Rugby Union fans.

Re: Rugby Union
And England won the Calcutta Cup with a 20-0 win over Scotland. So if France beat Italy tomorrow (as they probably will) only them and Ireland will have the chance of a Grand Slam this year.
