As a Scot, for me it's beat France!

Going to Paris and beating that team would be a special performance.

Anyone but England mentality is a bit sad.

We (England) have a very good chance of winning the Championship, if France beat Scotland, then we will have won, because we beat France.

Suspect the Welsh may have something to say…

Wales vs England in Cardiff is pretty special tbh. I’ve got a level of concern about what the Welsh might pull off, but regardless I hope it lives up to the history of the fixture.

Fabulous venue and fabulous, tribal crowd is what it should all be about.

Agreed. That’s a very Welsh way of looking at things

Table standings are based on:

Match Points
Scored Points Difference
Number of Tries Scored

Individual match outcomes don’t come into it, even in the event of all the above being the same.

If France win with a BP they win.

If France win with no BP then England need to win WITH a BP to be equal on Match Points AND they need a 80+ points difference to Wales to overcome France on Scored Points Difference.

If France lose then if England win with a BP then they win overall. If England win no BP and Ireland win with a BP then their scored points difference dictates table standings - all to play for there.

If France and England lose then Ireland and Scotland get interested, Scotland would need Ireland to lose and to beat France by something like 40 points in order to win the title (and France to not get a losing BP).

Basically, France are odds on to win the title, England can secure second place with a BP win, Ireland can sneak into second if England slip up or don’t get a BP and Ireland do.

Yes, but if France win on Saturday, they will be champions - right?

We - England- beat France, so therefore we must be the champions - right?

Whoever beats the champion, must be the champion. It is common sensingly obvious.

Agreed. It's anyone but Wales for me. (Calm down Welsh lads. I'm only joking. A bit )

I see you've had a few bites on this

Anyway, Wales will lose tomorrow. Pack isn't up to it.

It's nice when you can reel one or two in.

Does wind me up that the BBC don't care for English sport.

In a worrying omen for tomorrow, Wales U20 (won 2 games in last 10) beat England U20 (haven’t lost in 2 years) to prevent England getting the Grand Slam.

Game ruined/decided by quite the worst refereeing performance I’ve ever seen at senior level.

Weirdly, both teams can have legitimate complaints against the referee.

The best thing about the game was the treatment Kane James got.
