    disagree totally. the Welsh thrive on that atmosphere more than any other home team. but you may be right and they may wilt under it. we will see.



    if ever there was a side to prove something, then it must be Les Bleus. so by your logic France are a very dangerous proposition. i actually agree, but i dont think that will assist you argument.

    I was actually talking about an Irish side after a possible defeat by France. (which is eminently possible)

    Is it possible for a team to win the grand slam and not win the championship due to the bonus point system?

    No, there is a rule stating this can’t happen.

    Mind you, England could rack up a big score next week and wales will edge out Ireland. England would be top which is weird.

    No because a team who wins their 5 games gets an additional 3 points to stop that from happening.

    So mathematically is is possible but the team which finishes top of the table doesnt get the trophy because they lost a game and the second placed team didnt.
    This doesnt make much sense.
