Six Nations 2018

[TaffZee]

It is not easy to point out the outright winner. Focusing on the Six Nations alone, England has won 6 while Wales has won four of them. Another twist is that Wales have won 3 of their titles with a grand slam making them a force to reckon with. England being the current defending champions, however, have a slight advantage of winning the match on Saturday, February 10th 2018.

And don't forget:

England Population=55 Million
Wales Population=3 Million

2 nervous matches again big guys running into each other.

Wales were anything but nervous, took the Jocks by the horns and absolutely destroyed them.

Population figure doesn't count for much really. If you could compare the amount of English and Welsh who actually play rugby ?

6 Nations less France and Italy is;

England
England 'A' (Wales)
England 'B' (Scotland)
England 'C' (Ireland)

Meaning that the population is the same for all 4 Home Nations

Wales need to reassess their attacking gameplan at half time. England are winning the aerial battle and have been more clinical when the chances have arisen.

A bit of magic from Farrell and Launchbury made the two tries. Otherwsie there's hardly anything between the two sides.

Kick-off
England 12-3 Wales

Warren Gatland plays his joker card.

George North, Wales' fit-again monster wing, is on in place of fly-half Rhys Patchell.

Gareth Anscombe has gone to 10 with Josh Adams shifting from the wing to full-back.

Nail biting stuff, wales have the momentum
