6 Nations 2010

Well this weekend sees the return of League Tipster - and the 6 Nations C'ship!

How will Ireland follow up on last year? This is of course the 'difficult season' - away to France and England. Very tough to follow up a Grand Slam with another - it has not been achieved since the Italians came into the competition.

Our scrum is a big problem methinks and may be our undoing. Will Kidney go Rog or Sexton? I think we can win in Twickenham and our home 3 games - but can't see a Parisien win. So another Triple Crown and perhaps a share of the Champo is my prediction.

Always nice to have a bit of depth for once. Sexton has proved himself lately, more so than what O'Gara has. Dont know what has happened to the Irish scrum over the past year but hopeful we can still make up for it in other areas.

Ireland vs Italy - IRELAND WIN
France vs Ireland - IRELAND WIN
England vs Ireland - IRELAND WIN
Ireland vs Wales - DRAW
Ireland vs Scotland - IRELAND WIN

I'd expect France and Scotland to be the main challengers along with Ireland. I think English rugby is going through a bad spell, only one team left in the Heineken Cup, in Johnson I feel they have the wrong man in charge couldn't understand why they got rid of Brian Ashton.

I fear for Irelands trip to Paris, I'd say that could be the game that could decide the championship.

can't wait.

Ireland will definitely have a big challenge to retain the title, France looking strong as ever and even Scotland seem to be bouncing back.

it's gonna be good
