Wales will make a great late come back, England will benefit from a controversial try that will rattle 606's windows and Scotland will clinch an unlikely victory with a late penalty.

Do I get bonus points for those?

Scotland play Italy away... good luck in keeping your ranking

I'm right so far. Perhaps you should check your logic.

You thought Scotland/England was at Twickenham too so I think it's just luck really. That and changing your predictions after the results censored

If I was changing my predictions - the edit time would show up. It's something different Cyril - it's called knowing what in talking about. I've listed the winner first, rather than the home team. Duh.

Twas a joke about changing your predictions. I know you make a load of wild claims and, inevitably some will stick (the others are never mentioned again Wink

).

Re. home/away: not here, on the other threads when you claimed England would get preferential treatment 'at home' at Murrayfield.

Anyway, stop derailing this thread! Smile

Maybe check with sportform first... but I'm sure it has been done before.

I can delete your old one and wipe clean any reference to your inexplicably sudden change of mind.

I'm ready for the apology guys...

by GunsGerms Sat 22 Feb 2014, 3:49 pm

I am right so far too. You will be wrong bout the Ireland v England game though.

by GloriousEmpire Sat 22 Feb 2014, 4:47 pm

Well, I thought about changing when I heard cole was out, but Joubert at twickenham has history.

I'm trying to decide whether to post up what will happen in the next round now, or let you guys enjoy the suspense for a while.

I should get the scores/ tables for this week up sometime tonight. I think only three people manage to call wins for Wales, Scotland and England.

Ireland 34 v Italy 13
Scotland 16 v France 23
England 27 v Wales 13

I'm on the brink of predicting an upset win for Scotland, but I think in the end they'll do themselves in.
