6N 2018
-
I'm actually looking forward to this. The 6N is now the world's pre-eminent annual rugby competition. I hope the rugby on display lives up to that billing.
Surely a two horse race?

@mariner4life Should be four competitive teams this year? France will remain a joke. Hope they get beaten by Italy too.

I expect the Scots to spoil, but fall short. I don't actually think much of Wales, but they do seem to lift for this comp so maybe?

Scots were talking themselves up on the fb group I was a member of. I say 'was' because I made an off colour joke that offended a bunch of them, refused to apologise and got banned. Scottish rugby fans are quite literally a bunch of PC butthurt snowflakes.
God Bless TSF and all you fluffybunnies on here who share my non PC offensive attitude.

Everyone was getting all up in arms about Basteraud being homophobic ( i think he has been suspended ? ) and I mentioned gay blokes are great at shopping, interior decorating etc.
An admin emailed me saying he'd had multiple complaints about my bigoted comments.
Definitely the kind of piston wristed gibbons who woulda been outraged at that restaurant in chch.

Ouch. A tinge of the Angostura?

@rocky-rockbottom Parkes played for the Canes too (and did next to nothing for Canes and Blues). I think it's more of a case of Parkes suiting the Northern Hemisphere style of play than being a 'world class midfielder'. Super Rugby played by NZ teams is very fast paced and suits athletically gifted players - Hadleigh Parkes doesn't exactly fit that category. If you put Parkes in an NZ Super Rugby midfield this season I wouldn't expect 'world class'.

@kiwimurph given with his express pace, he played on the wing for the Blues....
My best memories of him is his play when Northland thrashed Manawatu 77-5 in 2010 haha

Is French rugby run by Jacques Clouseau?
