I love it, the sport, the rivalry, the passion, even Brian and Eddie arguing on air.

I have probably missed 2 matches on TV in the last ten years.

So how about you?

Why are England playing in Cream rather than white? :?


Not that you can see much through all the mud and grass though. :lol:

Didn't have modern bleaching techniques them - or modern detergents

Some pretty terrible behaviour by the English in that game, shame the ref missed it. Some bad plays by the Welsh too

It's a bit of a love hate thing here.
I like watching rugby. It's much more interesting than <dons flame-proof overcoat> football.
Still, being Scottish we haven't done that well in the 6 nations in recent years. :cry:

I've never considered football a real sport, especially not premiership football - it's more like a pantomime.

Yep, its odd that I feel somewhat satisfied when the team puts in a heroic effort yet still loses. And my goal is for them to avoid the spoon.

They generally have a good defense, but not a lot going forward to relieve the pressure. It's simply too much to ask that defense to soak up 80 minutes of punishment. :(

All commom sense is suspended as soon as the match kicks off though, and I sit there in the fervent belief we can do it. :)

I started watching the match then felt more inclined to go and get ready for work as Wales fell behind, so I missed the first try and then, just after I left for work and tuned into Radio Wales, they scored their second try. :x

When England scored their try in the last few minutes, the Radio Wales commentators were so excited, I thought we'd scored again, but it was England. Their commentary was so much more balanced and applauded great rugby, unlike the appallingly biased TV commentary.
