That was some ending! Didn't see England winning in a month of Sundays.
Really felt for Cunningham-South, who looked pretty inconsolable (and from a Quins perspective, he'll be a big loss if he's out for a while).

I love a charge down, but they’re so much better when they come with Jonathan Davies whinging

Possibly the only person watching who thought that was offside.

For a while there, I thought Wales were going to make it three upsets from three this weekend, but France have this in the bag now.

I wouldn’t want to be Wales having Italy visiting on the back of a win

Feyi-Waboso is out of Saturday's game against France: www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/68543663A real bummer, as he has looked very sharp indeed thus far; he's likely to be replaced with Daly (which is also a bummer).

I always liked George North.
He has certainly had his share of concussions, and some besides - it seemed as though he was getting KO'd on a weekly basis for a while there.

Great result for Italy!
So Wales get the wooden spoon. If I'm understanding correctly, Ireland only require a point in order to win the tournament, so Scotland need to beat them by more than seven points and avoid conceding four tries - a tall order, I fear.

Oh yeah we are fucked. Ireland are the team we just can't touch for whatever reason (they are way too physical and disciplined).
Great end to the Italy game, Wales can polish a turd.

To even be in the title conversation on the last weekend (no matter how unlikely) is something I hadn't dared to hope for at the start of the campaign.

It's too close.
I don't like it. Just fucking blow the game or win it! Gah.

Good defending from Scotland, but they can't keep this up for the next 20 minutes (and even if they could, they'd still lose).
I'd like to see them throw the ball about a bit and take the game to Ireland, if they still have the energy after all those tackles!

Huw Jones with a peach of a try. Less than three minutes remaining, 17-13 to Ireland - dare we dream?
