Re: 6 NATIONS 2021
You could argue that todays is a game between 2 distinctly average teams, it could be almost unwatchable, England should win, but if Wales take the handbrake off & Foxy is genuinely fit......what is guaranteed is that Daly will be shown up at some point in the game, for the sake of the spectacle hopefully by LRZ, although if it involves North it could be properly comical.ay2oh wrote: ↑Sat Feb 27, 2021 9:52 amWales are suddenly world beaters after two wins against 14 menloretta wrote: ↑Sat Feb 27, 2021 8:23 am Wales have been flattered by recent results.

Re: 6 NATIONS 2021
IIRC their parents ran a pub called The Fox (and Hounds?). Davies being a very unusual surname in Wales (not) Jon, being the eldest was referred to as Fox or Foxy. James, being the younger, became Cubby (or Cubby Boi) by the same logic. He's been Cubby so long that I have to think hard to remember his real nameWayne Richardson Fan Club wrote: ↑Sat Feb 27, 2021 11:27 am Jonathan Davies, his younger brother is known as Cubby.

Re: 6 NATIONS 2021
James is wonderful to watch at 7, but like his elder brother injuries seem to of caught up with him, personally I would of really enjoyed either of them in a Tigers shirt.

Re: 6 NATIONS 2021
Wonder how Ireland will do against Italy today? Is there going to be an upset?

Re: 6 NATIONS 2021
England beware! Wales have won twice by virtue of playing against 14 men. With the current rash of red cards( under new protocols many deserved) England must be on their best behaviour. My guess is Farrell will be carded for his tackles and England will lose.
Re: 6 NATIONS 2021
That would be too much to bear for the anti Sarries brigade.

Re: 6 NATIONS 2021
What has Italy ever done to Miles Harrison? Seems to be keenly over-exaggerating how poor the Azzurri are.

Re: 6 NATIONS 2021
Tbf it’s only Wales we are playing,but even I’m not confident today. I can see us getting turned over the way we are performing. But it’s on us,no matter what Wales do if we play our best we win,simple as that!
