61 fecking years..... Sixty fecking one
The mind games are over the only thing now is the match.
Warren Gatland has issued a half-hearted apology, or so it would seem after his attempted climb-down yesterday following some ill-advised comments last Tuesday. It might backfire and put the required spirit into us.
It is time to finally end the pre-match shenanigans and focus on the game that has a Grand Slam, Triple Crown and Six Nations title riding on it.
FFS No pressure then.
Wales go in search of the 13-point winning margin required to bring them the Triple Crown and Six Nations title. So it's a game not to be missed and will go down to the wire I reckon.
With four wins from four, it is hard not to be optimistic about today. However to get past Wales" in-your-face approach, we must employ greater depth and chip and grubber beyond the onrushing Welsh.
I will be enjoying a full day of beer and rugby which hopefully will end in
France beating Italy
Scotland winning the Calcutta Cup
And
Ireland winning the Grand Slam and Triple Crown
William Hill have Ireland at 13/10 with Wales at 7/10. With Brian O"Driscoll at 14/1 to score the first try.
I have of course invested
