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.

Twickenham centenary strip.

Just a one-off.

It's much nicer than most of their strips, even if their moobs are on display

Its just a shame the Italians didn't win today as well.

Cream is wrong.



No cream in there.

Ohhhh a little bit of dragon bashing going on there methink's.

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.

I watch some international football games but can watch any game of rugby.

just installed freesat - main reason to get teh 3 or 4 games a week on BBC wales and S4C

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.

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.
