Massively disappointing. Says a lot when the MoTM isn't even on the winning side.

We were abysmal in the first half and only marginally better in the second.

Thank God for the subs!

Reckon they'll improve dramatically after this...

Still, a win is a win and the streak continues!

A good day for me.

1: England win (they all count),

2: My club got its second win of the season, against 6th in the table - 35 - 7,

3: Oh, and my daughter delivered a little girl, Emilia, on Thursday. Baby put onto a drip as was breathing too fast, but was taken off today. Feeding well.

So quite a positive day today.

(Note: not necessarily listed in order of importance to me.)

Emilia is a little beauty.

Just watching the recording of the Scotland/Ireland match. Nearly 20 mins in without Ireland putting any points on the table, and Scotland with a converted try.

clap

I'm so, so pleased for the Scots and a brilliant game to boot. I loved Stuart Hogg's reply when he was asked if he ever thought he'd become Scotland's leading try scorer: "Well, I'm just put in great positions by the rest of the lads"

Top man!

Thanks, guys. It's not nice to see a day old baby with tubes attached, especially she's in one's own family, but she's reacted well to whatever it is they gave her. My son-in-law's been great - you can see a lot of what a person is like under such pressure I think.

England were lucky, but nothing new there. We've been unlucky in the past on occasion.

I'm also an Ireland supporter, but they did not deserve to win today. Good play by Scotland. Well done Hogg.

The last line of your post is the most important. The French were better than expected to be fair. All the pressure on England now, the grand slam is on let's See how they handle it ;-)

Saying that a week before Cardiff is a bold statement.
