Those pesky French . . . .


Aaaargh. Super Saturday in the Six Nations. Ireland, France and England can all win the championship. Ireland do the business in Rome. They give the Italians a lesson in how to run tries in. 51 points on the board. They leave France with 24 points of a score difference needed. Its a big job. Scotland vs France in Paris. Scotland, so narrowly beaten by the Irish last week. Can they do the same to France as they did to Ireland. em . . no. Try in the last seconds. Was it over? Ref says yes. Game and 27 points to France. Ireland second. Six Nations to France. Disaster. The last game in the season is Wales vs England. Its just kicked off and for once in my life (well, maybe twice) I want England to win. By about 60 points. It used to be 'anyone but England' but after 2 years of jammy victories in the six nations and I have got to say 'anyone but France'. Swing Low, sweet chariot . . . . . . oh the words are sticking in my throat!
