well it was certainly worth getting up at 2.00am and standing lonely in my pyjamas singing 'hen Wlad fy Nhadau ' without one objection from the sheep in the paddock next door. Then to watch the game live just as if I was there... now I can look forward to Wales visiting Australia and I might just cross over the ditch for one or two of the games. .

If you ain't heard it yet - you're DEAF or DEAD !  : http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-17416771

 

Now some footage:

 

First, the dramatic final 2 minutes - we had to keep the ball at hand. A turn-over could have led to a French try, which if converted, could have led to a tied match - and NO Grand Slam:

 

 

Second: The trophy presentation and the champagne celebration. Da iawn!

I second that!  Well done everybody especially the boys back home!!

Sorry I was missing for the final game.. I was moving to Minnesota so everything got in a bit of a tangle!

From the comfort of a Sunday morning armchair - well, the semi-comfort of a swivelling desk-chair:

 

Here are my concluding remarks on the 2012 RBS Six Nations Rugby Tournament - which I found well worth the $99.99 I spent to watch all 15 matches - AND have them archived for reruns!

 

Not to rub it in - to our Celtic brethren north of Hadrian's Wall - but Italy deserves to be recognized for avoiding receipt of - in fact, handing to their Scottish opponents on Saturday - the WOODEN SPOON.

 

The Italian team showed a vast improvement of prior year's squads. They thoroughly deseved their win - not just for Saturday's performance, but for their entire 6 Nations performances.

 

Ireland, found absolutely NO joy on what should have been a celebratory day for them. They had been valiant in the previous 4 matches, but were totally lacklustre against England - yet still ended up with the most accumulated points and tries scored.

I'd like to second that motion. We've done this scoreline prediction thing on the site for 3 years now but NEVER has it been handled with such flair, panache and professionalism. A thousand diolchs to Swansea Jack and here's looking forward to doing it all again next year ....hopefully with the same result
