As for the game - Slightly weaker selection than one would like but there is more than enough in that Irish team to beat the Welsh Anything less than a home win is entirely unacceptable.
Scotland probably think they have a chance given England's below par performance against their little brother. Scotland have a poor pack though so I'd expect England to win comfortably enough.
France should win easily tonight. Italy are poor.
It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.
Re: Six Nations 17/18
Munster's Chris Farrell is a high risk selection, especially when Joe could have picked Ringrose or McCloskey.
If we lose, I will blame Ulster reject Farrell for simply not being up to it.
If we win then I will praise the calculated selection risks taken, the inspirational Fergus, and the foresight of mastermind Joe.
Can't lose. In Joe we trust.

I say you fellows! The image of Rum as the Fat Owl of the Remove is most terrific btw. Yarooh!
Didn't think Shan was old enough or sufficiently culturally immersed to appreciate this stuff, but he really takes this West Brit thing to extraordinary lengths.
Volunteer at an animal sanctuary; it will fill you with joy , despair, but most of all love, unconditional love of the animals.

How many times is BOD going to say the World Cup may be a year too late for Rory and he's "in the winter of his career"? That's twice I've heard him say it. You'd think he wants rid
Hes the one to talk, he retired 2 years too late. Fecker.

Munster's Chris Farrell if he plays like a drain. Ulster's Chris Farrell if he's MOTM.

Is it time to start calling out players who dont sing the anthem of ireland but do sing the unrepresentative song?
Doesnt sit right with me. Time to scrap an emblems and songs that create division

Where did Farrell learn to take a restart like that?
