    Are France the top team now in the 6 nations ?

    Well regardless what happens in Paris in a few weeks time tomorrow in Twickenham is what we must focus on.

    If we win tomorrow you would expect the game in Paris to be the Grand Slam decider. It would be quite a conclusion to the 6N.

    Wales make a great attempt to turn the match around but come up short. This second loss in the competition means that they will not retain their Six Nations title and France are still on course for the Grand Slam.
    The Truth is out there.

    Our last game is in Paris , tomorrow will tell if it will be a grand slam decider, are France the top team in the 6 Nations ? No but if they win the slam then yes .
    The 6 nations is a totally level championship, any 4 could win it next year . Fine lines , luck and injuries can often decide the winner , it can be that close

    And we were ranked number 1 going into the world cup !

    That may have been how the rankings are calculated but realistically were we really the best team in the world ?

    The results said different.
    Are we there yet ?

    I know where your coming from and a lot can change in a year or 2 but that French team is young and will only improve. 10 years since they won there and wales the reigning slam champs so they are going the right way about it, but a massive rugby Nation like France will have to win one eventually this team has the potential to do it , yes 3 and half years can be a long time!!!

    And we are producing good young players too , Pity we didn’t get the next World Cup

    Going to be a massive game and challenge tomorrow, but I’ve been very impressed by Andy Farrell’s approach, there is life post Joe Schmidt, I believe we can win

    There is always life after an other , no one person is the team.
    Farrell will be his own man and I think will be successful too, he is only in the job and all ready is getting his point across. Now he will have to start blooding younger players after the 6 Nations , I’d say he will as he knows there is huge young talent coming through. He started one or 2 but they got injured. That’s the way it goes but we have over 3 years to blood them
