Well with the Welsh having a back line that when well oiled is the best in the world, I think it will be.

England 36 -9 Wales

It appears though that we are not playing Wales but the Ospreys with a couple of token Llannelli players thrown in and as the Leicester Tigers murdered them in last years EDF cup final, it could well be more.

Blimey, think us Scottish/Welshies better beat a hasty retreat from Wellie and Trouser's house on Saturday I don't fancy being squished in the scrum!

I don't think the England game'll be that much of a whitewash.

I reckon:-

Ireland to beat Italy 18-15 (ish!)

England to beat Wales 25-18 (ish!)

And here's the clincher.....Scotland to beat France 15-10 (ish!)

I think Wales will drastically improve during the tournament so England are fortunate to be playing them early on. I also think Vainakolo will come off the bench for a first cap, and be competent but not spectacular.

I'll really stick my neck out and say that I think the final weekend's England v Ireland game could well be the contest decider.

I'd be very happy with that, there is nothing as rousing as taking it to the wire

Down the pub at lunch time and chatting to a colleague who happens to be a big fan of rugby, and Welsh to boot - I know, it's strange.

Henyway, he reckons Vainikolo will come off the bench in the second half and have a couple of tries under his belt by the final whistle.

Also reckons England will win by 15-20 points.

I'd forgotten we'd have to put up with bloody awful camera work from the BBC - Sky put them to shame.

They're either too close in, too far away or an awful overhead shot.

England played in the first half - in the second half the England squad handed their shirts over to the car park attendants to play in their place and b*ggered off to the pub
