Six Nations 2018
Discussion
Who's excited?
Sporting highlight of the winter for me (particularly after this winters Ashes!) - and when it's over Spring can officially start.
Predictions?
England fan here so sort of expecting a win but will be fascinating to see the challenge from Ireland and in particular, the Scots - expecting good things from them this year.
If I was to put my neck on the line now:
England
Ireland
Scotland
Wales
France
Italy
Big shock if Wales are down there but who knows....
Lots of missing players at the start from what I've seen in the last couple of days...
Bigger
Liam Williams - whose upset?
Slide
Sinckler
Robshaw
Mike Brown
Nowell
Billy Vunipola
Nathan Hughes
Who set up the Fantasy league last year? Fancy doing another one?

mike Brown out? not heard that, how come ?
Looking forward to seeing Watson at FB, got ticket for Scotland-England, can't wait, been once before and it was my live sports event highlight, electric atmosphere, and the jocks have got half a chance of a result as well to make it more interesting.England’s injury list is huge and the back row is going to be very green. Unfortunately Hartley is still fit. I have Ireland down as favourites as they have only a couple of key injuries and their main players are much fresher. England have never won the 6(5)N the season after a Lions tour, apparently.
Wales also ravaged by injury but I don’t think it will affect their ultimate placing in the table.
Be interesting to see if Scotland can maintain their Autumn form, though they have no front row fit.
Basically it the form of the uncapped stand-ins will affect the outcome.
My final table prediction:
Ireland
England
Scotland
Wales
France
Italy
