Games between us have been decided by wafer thin margins for a while, and England are trying something completely new. I've gone in waves this week of optimism to pessimism to jangling nerves.Gumboot wrote: Fri Feb 03, 2023 8:15 am As a neutral, I'm surprised that so many are picking Scotland over England.
Notr at all, the last few years results prove the point.Tichtheid wrote: Fri Feb 03, 2023 8:58 amPersonally, I can never pick Scotland to lose, no matter what, and I think there might be a bit of under dogging going on from the England fans.Gumboot wrote: Fri Feb 03, 2023 8:15 am As a neutral, I'm surprised that so many are picking Scotland over England.
Home advantage, a new coach bounce, a team picked to run the ball with Smith behind Dombrandt - it could go very well for them.
We've also picked a team to run, it could be a 38 all classic again, which I doubt, but I think there will be a lot of tries one way or the other, this isn't going to be a 9-6 thriller.

Matches have been close in the last 6 years, but a Scotland win at Twickenham tends to only come about once in a blue moon.

Not awesome.
Although as I got the Twickenham winner wrong does that mean I'm out for the rest of the 6N? Is there only a winner if they correctly predict the result of all 25 games?

Difference between your predicted score and the actual score. Lower is better. I'll get the results up shortly.

What do the green and yellow mean?
You could use green to track all those who've got all the winners right so far.
I say -10 for an incorrect winnercharltom wrote: Tue Feb 07, 2023 11:17 pm Nice one.

For some reason I had remembered Wales - Ireland as 10-32. All good.Uncle fester wrote: Tue Feb 07, 2023 10:48 pmNope.clydecloggie wrote: Tue Feb 07, 2023 3:48 pm6+7+9 = 22.clydecloggie wrote: Wed Feb 01, 2023 9:32 am Wales 3 Ireland 19
