Two Six Nations games are played today. Unfortunately the Saturday games overlap with two Super Rugby games.
So, we’ve decided to do one combined Six Nations Article… giving progress and scores from both Six Nations matches.
Here it is…

GO SCOTLAND!!!
There has been some rain earlier this morning in the area but for the game itself would go for it probably staying dry – should be reasonable conditions for a good open game lets just hope the teams produce the goods although hope Scotland produce more than Wales.
Ireland and France playing at the Aviva Stadium, not Landsdowne Road anymore
3 @ Bullscot:
Thanks… fixed
Scotland on a huge high, and letting the world know. I hope they take this one, but the Welsh, licking their wounds are going to be no easy push-over, thats for sure!
Players taking the field, Wales out first…
Warburton back in the side, and hopefully just the boost the Welsh need. They should – unless they have the ‘luck of the Irish’ (literally), walk this one. But take nothing away from the Scots and Scott Johnson, after what can only be construed as two of the greatest wins for them, anything can happen!
Now Scotland take the field
Anthems, again 2 of the best
Anthems.
Wales Anthem up first
Jeeez, the Mud-people like their pomp and ceremony….
The Welsh do love their daffodils
Oh Flower of Scotland up now… and the bagpipes are screaming!
11 @ grootblousmile:….and something they do better than any other nation, thats for sure
Think I picked Wales for a win on Bru….
Wales to kick off
…and they’re off
Game ON!
Craig Joubert of SA the referee.
14 @ Just For Kicks:
Yes… they do do it well.
15 @ grootblousmile:Surely, only Bean – and perhaps Bullscot are the only 2 on earth to have picked Scotland!
Wales driving through the middle a few times to good effect but knock deep inside the Scotland 22
20 @ Just For Kicks:
How is Beanie and the 2 Beansters?
Wales have certainly started the stronger, opting for the scrum again
Free Kick Wales from the 1st scrum, early engage… wales opt to scrum again
@ grootblousmile:All very well. Bean watching this one. Kiks in front of a heater in the games room – cold here today
Massive Wales scrum and they get the penalty right in front.. a pop-over ball
Much better and stronger scrummaging for the Welsh ends in a penalty right out in front. Halfpenny steps up
Wales 3 / 0 Scotland
Over
Scotland 0 / 3 Wales (4 min)
