Six Nations

Anyone here going to watch the Six Nations rugby match today? (Ireland Vs. England)

It's gonna be a good one. I have to watch it in the pub as the tickets sold out in hours. (and I dont have 1500 Euro to spare to buy one from a scalper)

It's going to be Ireland's first Grandslam in over 50 years. I can't wait.

With a name like spade, I suppose you have no trouble digging a hole for yourself.

55 years, I think it was, since the Irish last took the Grand Slam.
You might have the home advantage, but I'm not going to be one to speak too soon in either direction.

Well, England slightly in the lead, it was 7-3 for a while, the the margin stayed the same as it went to 10-6 to England.
But with it this close, I still won't make any announcements... O'Driscoll's men are occasionally piercing through and looking ready to get a try.

Look's like anesra was right all along, a convincing 42-6 win for the Brits at Lansdowne!
