Mmmm, even though England has a Caretaker Coach, I think they’ll win this one.
… but then again, it’s at Murrayfield….
England by 8
These emoticons are so cool
While i’m on an England thread I would just like to mention that I hope Pakistan wallop the English in the Cricket.
Go pakis, no game throwing please.

Yip, they’re cool!
Players coming out onto the pitch for the Anthems
Kom Barrit, wys daai Engelsmanne wat in jou steek.
Afternoon Boys
It looks almost cosy at Murrayfield compared to the Cotswolds, snow blowing sideways here.
Of course I am shouting for England……
@ Snoek:
Please stop the ‘Klippety Klop’ talk when the English person is present, especially when you are slagging the English off, I need to retaliate!!
‘GOD SAVE OUR QUEEN’……
Some Royal Handshaking…
Anthems
God save our Queenie up first… Flower of Scotland up last
@ Blue Bird:
Enjoy it girl , i picked your team by 3, not sure whats going on up there. Just a loyalty pick.
9 @ Blue Bird:
“Klippety Klop”??
Eishhhh
Goooooooooo Scotland!
I think no small children should be allowed onto the field unless they know all the words to the anthems!
Go men in skirts! Moooooer the pommies!
Damn, the South African players are everywhere in the Northern Hemisphere teams!
3 South Africans played for Italy, now 2 here for the Bleekbene!
@ Blue Bird:
Hi Blue bird

So by the way , just for your attention i had this message quite a few times today

@ superBul:
Hello Old Chum, glad you are supporting England today again.
Where is Puma, our biggest Saffa Scottish fan on RT? I have not spoken to him for ages.
@ superBul:
Julle het seker water in julle data lyne.
Penalty for the Pommeranians, near halfway, they go for touch
@ grootblousmile:
I see Keo is terribly slow on the Six Nations front, I suggested people who enjoyed 6 Nations action could ‘pop’ over to Rugby Talk for some up to date chat!
@ Blue Bird:
You will be shocked but Di made me soft for the English people. And then again a country who ask God to save their Queen must have a good “footing” “foundation” or whatever. The Poor cricketers is getting it from…. the Pakis.
My Bru pick was a bit too big for the Poms, I fear… I have them by 13
Tweede helfte slordig! Reen! Wen 16 -12! goeie begin met yougsters! Geluk Bulls!
@ Snoek:
Really??
@ Snoek:
Really??
Strange rugby this game… very different from the rugby we saw in the France game
26 @ superBul:
I’m glad the Bulls won… it was very much their dirt-tracker side which played.
Lots of silly errors so far by both sides… even a few turn-overs
