Ipswich and Scotland win.
That doesn't happen very often, and but for a dodgy TMO decision in the game against France, Scotland could be going into the game against Ireland with the Grand Slam for both at stake. [Post edited 25 Feb 9:48]

Scots looks a good team at the moment, and yes that was a strange decision vs the Frogs |  |

Fair play to Scotland, the best team won. Really is a good time to be a follower of Scotland rugby, they’re at a level above England right now and have been for a while.
From England’s perspective we made too many individual errors and created a lot of our own problems at times, but no getting away from the fact Scotland deserved to win.
Beating Italy and Wales and losing the other 3 was my prediction for the 6 nations campaign and I think that’s what we’ll see. Definitely a work in progress at the moment and a lot of change, but I’m not massively convinced we’ve got a rosy future around the corner under Borthwick. |  | | |

I agree that Borthwick doesn't seem the right man.
The thing is though that England have for a long have had the players, it's just that too often the sum of its parts has been greater than the whole, to turn the usual phrase (which could be applied to Scotland) on its head | | | |

Pretty much my thoughts, too. |  |

Apart from the world cups I lost interest many years ago tbh. I did get an invite to go last year v France which I took up but no engagement from the crowd at all and most of us had left by the 70th minute. It’s just a corporate day out now. Also a time when whatever people say there is a dearth of really top quality players plus current coach not good either. We had a relatively easy run in the WC but overall the game is dying in England. Might be an idea to have a 4 nations and relegate England and Italy to a second division of 4 to make it more competitive and have 1 up, 1 down etc. |  | | |
