[2025 Six Nations] Scotland vs Wales - 8/3/25

[Jimbo]

Parrisse was a legend of the 6N...

Who would you select a peak Parrisse behind? Most have him as one of the best 8s the tournament has ever seen

And how much of that is a sympathy vote playing in a pretty terrible team constantly on the wrong side of heavy defeats.

[dirty harry]

That's because he's in Ireland….

British Isles...

Let's not pretend he's even Irish lol

 

[Jimbo]

Can we all agree, the Welsh squad is lacking any quality.

Lack of bulk up front, lack of quality in the back line.

Which coach could get this squad to a RWC semi final?

You have two nailed on Lions in it how is that lacking any quality?

I was more thinking having to play this game for another 20mins.

You tell me...

Let's have a vote!

Personally, I would put him as a starter in most international teams.

 

[TommiG88]

2 people called him over rated, do you agree?

I think he was incredible player, but the issue with him was he played in a poor Italy team so he always shone.

I just threw up in my mouth. First it was the welsh attack and now Kinghorn.

 

[Saintjay]

Did someone tell Kinghorn that Williams was the Lions starting 9.

 

[TommiG88]

Thomas is Wales’ best player in my opinion

Jesus wept there's 20mins left

Bit gross that there's a puddle of spew somewhere on the pitch

Gotta watch where you're diving for the ball

It’s all over the welsh sideline as well.

Are you kidding?

The lions are made up of 4 nations, a squad of 40 plus guys, meaning anything short of 8-10 tourists means your under performing.

I see Wales sending 3 or 4 tourists. Do you think that's OK?

Keep shuffling... jahahaha

Where's that been all match

That's a bold statement I can think of a few I'd put in front of him who have been part of the 6 nations, talking all international teams I don't think he's in my top 5.

I’ll raise you prime Billy V & your very own Taulupe Faletau

Off the top of my head at their peak:

Savea
Read
Vermuelen
Brooke
Dallaglio
Spies

Quite a number of others if I spent more time researching.

So you agree he wasn't just world class, but top 5 of all time?

Does he make a single one of the other 6 nations teams?
