6 nations week 2

I'm not sure why I'm even continuing to watch Ireland v. France. Our alleged team are handing them the ball more often than not, getting in each others' way, committing basic errors (forward passes, poor passes, and knock-ons) and at this point we're trailing by 40 points and there's still a half-hour left in the game.

update: just after I posted that, we scored three tries in a row, and converted them. We're still most likely going to lose, but at least we'll cut down the points difference.

I hope.

update: 4 tries. hply sjot.

update: well, if only we'd played the entire game like we played the last half hour. Final score: 43-31. So many missed chances, alas.

Normal service resumed today, with Scotland well beaten by Wales. Kinda tricky when the team is a player short, I suppose, but that was down to stupidity more than anything else...
