    <cheers> guys! But Alan King's a cautious fellow, isn't he? Early days, but this one could be pretty useful, for sure.

    Well played to Ireland, thoroughly deserved win. England were really quite poor today, but IMHO Ireland made them play that way. It certainly looks like a grandstand finish to the 6-Nations. Wales must have their tails up now?

    Ireland definitely deserved to beat the English today but I'd fear the grand slam aspirations going to Cardiff. As has been pointed out home advantage is a big plus. Bit like the Champions League during the group stage.

    Is it Cheltenham yet :)

    ENGLAND, imo, are now looking a good bet at 5/2 to win the six nations. Ireland have two shots at cocking it up on the road whereas England have two eminently winnable matches at Twickenham. I think Wales will sense a real chance of upsetting the applecart but the most likely scenario for me is that the three major protagonists all end up on one defeat. England will at that point almost certainly have the best points difference of the three!

    First time watching MOTD and Liverpool actually looking like a proper top 4 side against a good team. Coutinho really could become a special talent, worldclass possibly. Could have given City a proper hiding today. It's telling we've picked up 10 pts more than them since Christmas. Pretty sure we'll finish above United now and that'll be enough for 4th.
