It’s that time of year which brings QPR Nuts out to tell us why Ireland haven’t got a hope. Should be between France and England this year so Ireland for the Slam.
 
Ireland under the cosh 12 points down already, although a suspicious looking knock on by Dupont when picking ball out of scrum, conveniently overlooked by TMO....
 
After a spirited mini comeback with two tries by Ireland the French wrap it up with a flowing touchdown for a 36-14 win. Clearly they will be the team to beat now...
 
Ireland given a lesson tonight by France.... will take a very good side to beat them...
 
Italy beat Scotland 18-15 played in monsoon conditions in Rome....
Although I really dislike this new fangled thing with a DJ blasting out music every time there's a stoppage you have to smile when he played "Here comes the sun".....good sense of humour...
 
Deserved win in dreadful conditions for the Italians over a pretty brainless Scottish team.

Wales decide to play their best finisher, who isn’t known for his tackling or kicking, at full back.
