Paddy Power

Hats off to Ireland. They got their first Six Nations Grand Slam in 61 years. Hell, that makes our pining for 1987 look easy.

Now its all over for the internationals before the Lions tour to South Africa later this year. Check out this article from The Times, it’s great fun. Its such a treat to get a grasp on how a ‘Rugby Great’ like Jeremy Guscott, and Lord Spincter Jones actually think, or don’t.

The overwhelming flavour of their selections is not exactly peppered with English players, but Guscott actually thinks Wilkinson should be one of the No. 10! Plus Phil Vickery gets mentioned as Captain material, and O'Driscoll would not even get picked for the Test team. Stop it, you guys. My ribs hurt from laughing!

3-0 to the World Champs?

England are idiots. They have no real idea about how the game is played these days. Quite obvious from Six Nations - the game they did win, they tore it up with their backs. Ireland deserve win - they've been playing a Southern Hemisphere game for years.
England bring about as much to the game of rugby as New Zealand does to men's cricket.
There. I've said my bit.
