Seriously powerful. Didn’t realise he’s an exile.

Wilson also played well. Helped shore up the scrum and had big carries. His replacement (mcsweeney who started game 1 & 2) tried his best to lose the game by giving away a handful of penalties.

McCormick is a decent prospect at hooker and crothers looks to have the top two inches anyway.
Wilson and McLoughlin should come through.
Just don’t see it with Crothers.

McNabney looks a better prospect.

Yeh I like the look of McNabney.

Would love to have seen the 6Nations team play SA. The current side over the last couple of weeks have been miles behind them.

Is Scott Wilson u19 or u20?

He played with the ulster u19s earlier on in the season vs Connacht, yet his date of birth on the IRFU website states august 2002, meaning he’s u20 this year and hasn’t another year at this level?

Crothers seems to be everywhere but doesn’t do anything particularly eye catching. Seems very underpowered. Got smashed back twice in the last few minutes but I suppose a bit of bulk will come with time and effort.

How were the groups chosen in the competition? Group A seems like the top 5 teams and group B the bottom 5, yet the two group winners play in the final?

Was it World Cup ranking from the last competition? Not entirely sure but was convinced it was Tier 1 (Group A) and tier 2 (Group B) until I heard there was a final Image

Anyway to keep the Welsh from whinging potentially?

Ireland 41-24 Scotland FT.

14th consecutive defeat for the Scots at this level. Beat 55-17 by Georgia, 34-14 by Italy and 45-15 by Wales in this tournament for context.

A good solid win for the Irish. Yes, Scotland are as bad as they seem.

France easy win against Georgia

Italy beat Ingerland ... again.

Any forecasts for Wales against the Saffers? (HT 26-3 for SA)
