I think that for the fans of Irish Rugby more than anything
else I think that Ireland need to show that they have fixed what went wrong
against Scotland and I think that they can get a bonus point here I think that
this will be not an easy first 60 minutes but as the game goes on Ireland will
improve as the game goes on
I say Ireland by 21 and bonus point

I think that this game will be a lot closer than people

them as I think that England are that step ahead of Wales at the moment
I say England by 5
SUNDAY
FRANCE V SCOTLAND
I think that there are matches that Scotland must win after
beating Ireland last week to that it was not a fluke. Though the thing is that
France are known for bong hot and cold and if France play well Scotland for one
should have hope after their brilliant first half against Ireland I think if
players like Grey and Laidlaw stand up they have a chance. To me this does
depend more on France than anyone else.
I say France by 3
