20 in the league doesn't seem overly gobsmacking - or have you joined a different league.

In a world where you just have to look at a rugby team to initiate total financial collapse, a 20 team league is beyond the comprehension of a tiny mind like mine.

Well, I did post a really fascinating couple of thoughts about the constitution of England's back row a page or two back. Feel free to post your response to that smile

Never fear- I predict that by tomorrow evening this thread will have reverted to the usual banter, the odd flounce, random interjections about Rugby League, tasting notes on Steinlager and some bickering about whether Biggar or Farrell is the biggest tt (despite neither playing).

I'm by no means an apologist for Borthwick but to be fair, Slade's Premiership form has gone up a notch or two, at the same time three of the centres ahead of him in the RWC pecking order (Lawrence, Marchant, Tuilagi) are not available for selection for the 6N, so it's no that remarkable.
Certain players just don't work at International level- Cipriani is a classic example and I feel Slade is similar.

Had a punt in there too, not really sure this time around. France Ireland is going to be a brutal game (and I'm driving so wont see it live!)

Right, back to big time rugby again! Really looking forward to tonight’s match in particular, although I think it’ll be France’s night. I hope I’m wrong, but I’ll go 17-11 to France

Good luck to all the teams, and hopefully we continue on from the RWC with some cracking matches

Gonna be a cracker tonight. In the Stade Velodrome as well which should make for a superb atmosphere!

Agree with this- hope it’s a cracker, ideally would be the final game, but think France in Marseille will prove too strong.

Regrettably no tasting notes on Steiny this weekend. I'm in Plymouth having a weekend away. Currently in The Dolphin on the Barbican drinking Bass.

Which is lovely.

Anyway, can't predict tonight. Think it could be a cagey affair.

So it makes no sense (unless you're a Kiwi) that I've bet on both teams over 2.5 tries and a yellow card in the match at 11/2. laugh
