We're in a Rugby World Cup Year so each of the six nations will be trying to gain some momentum ahead of the Big event. Each match will be reported here so pop back for scores & thoughts. This, at least is something England are capable of winning....

i much prefer rugby to football, use to go to the local rugby every sat years ago.

Now I've never really been a Rugby Fan. I've watched a couple of games, but never really got into. Almost played when I was younger as well..... Then I saw my mate get his nose broken & decided that it wasn't for me
