Round Three Redux? Round Five-and-three-quarters? In any case, Welsh fans will be biting their nails, or any other available substance, and wondering if France can win with a bonus point and 21 points to deprive them of the title.
Scotland will no doubt have plenty to say about this, as a win with a six-point points advantage will put them second on the table (giving them their best finish in the Six Nations), supposing France don’t score a LBP.
Sadly, both teams can finish above Ireland. Maybe we should just cancel this match.
And maybe we should support France to wind up the OH.

There’s only one real entry for the hanging around song, and has the benefit of the lyric “hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way”, which always reminded me of the English Ashes teams in the 80s when I started listening to Floyd:

I know so many people who think they’ll get to do it alone
They isolate themselves and stay in their bedroom zones
Now what can you tell them
And what can you say that won’t make them defensive
Hang on to your Lego
Hang on, but I know that you’re gonna lose the fight
They come on like they’re peaceful
But inside they’re so uptight
They wait through the day
And waste all that you’ve built at night
Now how can I say it
And how can I come on
When I know I’m guilty
Hang on to your Lego
Hang on, but I know that you’re gonna lose the fight
That’s how it is in this house anyway.

Anyway – a writer on the Scottish rugby blog is doing a depth chart looking at the national team and who might be in place looking ahead to the next RWC (and the one after that). Interesting looking at the names, and who might be coming through.
