You want hills? We got hills
Quite right but I expect they will have stiff competition for the wooden spoon though

Sunday's game is huge for both sides and has the potential to make or break the tournament for either.

If we can build on our excellent World Cup showing then I'm optimistic. But England will be looking for a huge reaction to their dismal one.

Very hard to call!

Really. Scotland ?
Much as I cheer for the home countries whenever they are playing Johnny Foreigner, so obviously this weekend doesn't count, I think you're in for a disappointing 6 nations 2016 if you think Scotland might win the entire tournament.

Here for rides.
England should win the Calcutta Cup on the weekend. It is likely to be the only thing they win this campaign.

I admire your optimism @Marmion ,but I sense a rerun of last year.
A large proportion of the Squad come from the Warriors,and they are Gash at the moment.
You would think they would know each others game by now.
It speaks volumes that a Warriors fan in the work was genuinely pleased they got a draw with a mediocre Ospreys.
I also don't have time for Big Vern,as he is mirroring everything The Fat Controller (Johnson) said.
He saved his bacon with an unexpected good RWC,so much so,they extended his contract :rolleyes:

If the French can be less....well French, they can win it for sure

Cotter is quality and his contract was extended before the world cup. He's got us playing with style and belief that's been lacking in recent years*.

I love watching France play because you either get brilliant rugby or a louche protest of players setting up a table for a few rounds of wine, Gauloises and cards. Both are equally entertaining, particularly when the caveman was playing and would go on a mad solo mission to try and win.

*Yes, I can see this coming back to haunt me. Please be kind...

I really hope I'm wrong @AndyRM ,and Scotland have a great campaign.
They gave him a new contract before it ?.A brave move after a dismal Six Nations.I must be thinking of Gregor Townsend at Glasgow.
I had pretty much made my mind up about Cotter,but time will tell I suppose.
They were prepared to wait for him,so they must see something there.
I felt he said pretty much the same things as Johnson.A shrug of the shoulders and a case of you can only go with what you have more or less.
In my eyes he did not make them better,yes better to look at,but woefully bad tactically.
As I say,I really hope I'm wrong and I'm just being sceptical.
