[QUOTE="gingergenius, post: 274349"] I think I'll wait till after the autumn before passing any judgement. What I can say is that Scotland and Italy won't get a Grand Slam/ win the competition, and Ireland are the best side in Europe at the moment. However, in the 6 Nations especially, being the best side often means very little because there are so many mavericks. France are capable of beating anyone when they want to, and losing to anyone as well. And the other rivalries are so intense that the minute someone becomes an underdog, it's when they're at their most dangerous. Wales have won 2 Grand Slams in recent years with precious little achievement elsewhere, just as an example of the surprising nature of the competition. England came 2nd last year in spite of the fact that they went into 3 of the games thinking a close defeat would be a good result. The 6N is no good for a betting man. [/QUOTE]
