Looking forward to it, the best rugby event of the year. Im hoping England can perform well and nip the competition, although i doubt a grand slam is on.

England certainly have a squad to upset the Irish a little tomorrow. I think if we play like we did against the all blacks we will be hard to beat. Joe Schmidt has them incredibly well drilled not too mention grounded. No mentions of world cups or grand slams. All he wants is improvement. I love his balls at putting Robbie Henshaw in at 15. Same as Eddie Jones and Elliot Daly at 15 . Can't wait for a good game .

We're season ticket holders at Murrayfield so you can guess who we hope will win(a few anyway), something it tells me it'll multiple layers to keep the cold at bay tomorrow.
First game on the box later, beer and pies in stock.

Just watched Ireland v England ladies as a warm up, good game, much less stop/start than the men and a lot more ball in hand running.

Missed that, but the womens games are always good, its a shame they dont get more exposure.

Think Wales haven’t been at their best and France have been able to pounce and open them up.

yeah a bit of both. Just a shame on the kicking. Parra missed 3 from 3.

The game would be over if he’d kicked all those as well. Still all to play for if wales score first in the 2nd half.

When you just want to be swallowed by the pitch. What a shocker
