I’m following it the best I can—but it’s not on the national tv networks here in the US so you have to have the right cable TV channels to be able to see the games. I drove down to Houston yesterday (100 miles or 160km each way) so I could watch the Wales v. Scotland game. It’s a long trip to make and one I can’t afford to do for every game-but it is great to watch the game with other rugby fans in the room!

I really don’t care who wins since the US isn’t ever a part of the 6 Nations. I just enjoy seeing good rugby! Who do you think is going to win?

Good to see others like and follow rugby. Obviously for me, I hope that England does the Grand Slam and wins the 6 Nations.
I am increasingly optimistic about our team now and its chances. England have had a quiet, out-of-the-press build up in past year under Martin Johnson and progressed a lot in that time with hard training, work and many new young players. So much in fact I have already placed my bet for England to win the Rugby World Cup later this year in New Zealand. I got odds of 11-1.
I should have placed it earlier as wanted odds of at least 20-1, and could have got them too, but after Englands first win against Wales(last Friday 4 Feb, 2011) their odds had shortened considerably already!!
The 6 Nations Championships match decider is already being touted as England-France in 2 weeks time. I wish the media wouldn’t do that as shows disrespect to the other competing nations and creates unnecessary pressure and war of words etc.

It was really disappointing to have Ireland go out on Sunday. They played the best they’ve played in a long time, but too many mistakes and too many penalties cost us the game. Onwards and upwards!
