dissapointed with England.
would rather the Irish won it.
but cant complain with seeing yet another wood spoon to the Scots.
Scotland, can you not do anything right? All you had to do was lose by a modest margain... :(
Someone might want to double check my calculations (big st pats day) but if the 6N had a similar system to most rugby tournies (4 points for win + bonus points, etc) Ireland would have won.
Ireland 4 1 5 4 5 = 19
France 5 4 4 0 5 = 18
