Ok everybody, the internationals start next weekend and its time for the rivalry to begin all over again.

Predictions if you please Smile

Personally I would love Wales to grand slam it again, but realistically I think we have too many injured players.
Therefore, I'm giving my vote to Ireland to do well (and kick England's ass!!) - though not in the poll - that still goes to Wales!

Edit : polls only showing up 4 options, so we're restrcited to home nations...

Have to go with England.  Andy Robinson will get them back into shape and it was only a few missed penalties here and there that stopped them from winning last year.  Just hope the line out doesn't crumble like it sometimes does.  If they can play like they played against New Zealand a few months back then they should be OK.

Well as you can probably guess, I'm going for Ireland. Wink  I think with Brian O'Driscoll back from his spear tackle injury, we should be able to play some decent rugby and progress well.

Got to go with England.  It's the team that got me interested in rugby to start with.  Will support any 'home team' that's playing Italy or France!

Lucky you!  Hope you have a great time.  Nearest I got to Murrayfield was passing it on my way to Pitlochry last year!  Will be a tough one for Scotland - been watching some of those French players in the Heineken Cup.

I'm a big England rugby fan, well living in NZ its sort of compulsory to have a little interest in rugby. Unfortunately the 6 Nations is only on here on 1 pay per view channel (ironically called the "rugby channel") and we don't like rugby enough to pay out for it. We would only watch the England 6 nation games, and I think you have to buy it for a year, can't just get it for a month.
