Thanks. The Wilted Daffodil has been renamed the Cocky Leek. The Welsh are as gracious as ever in victory! NOT!!!

It's not sour grapes but imo,it's one of the worse GS wins ever.

Yet it is a grand slam win and a Six Nations title. That's the aim of the game and Wales have done it. Unfortunately!

Defense wins tournaments.

Wales, whilst looking good in attack, have been immense and not conceded many points

Well done Wales! A shame that the Twickers game is a dead rubber.

Curry has gone from impressive to a world class player over the 6N.

These are the tactics they should have used against Wales, although their defensive display would be rather better than Scotland who are clueless.

Don’t rate that excuse, England have loads of players injured too. Scotland coming out of the tunnel didn’t look in the best place and their performance shows as much.

Because the BBC are a biased institution? Funded by those who have no choice but to pay the TV licence.

Pay a fortune to “talent” to read scripted news. Spend a fortune on certain regions of the UK so long as that’s not in England. A new channel for Scotland but the concept of spending that money on the midlands or the Northwest with bigger populations not even on the radar.

In Butler and Davies they squander more money on the clueless.

Daly showing poor defence there. May had the Scottish player covered so Daly should have moved over to the winger quicker.
