2025 6 Nations Tipping Comp. Last day for Rd 5 picks
I just can't pick against Scotland.
otoh, what the hell was I thinking? I need to update my prediction, if that is allowed.
Italy by 5
France by 15
Scotland by 3
Yeah, I mean Wales even scoring ten at the moment is hard to imagine.
And are there two g’s in Bugger Off?

I don't really understand why anyone's picking England. Scotland are 4 in a row against us and haven't lost at Twickenham since 2017.
Meanwhile, England have demonstrated an ability to keep things close, but consistently lose against tier 1 nations at the moment. Probably are capable of a narrow win, but it doesn't seem especially likely.
Not sure how that is relevant to England playing at home v France this weekend.sockwithaticket wrote: ↑Wed Feb 05, 2025 5:25 pmI don't really understand why anyone's picking England. Scotland are 4 in a row against us and haven't lost at Twickenham since 2017.

I've already mentally written this week off and skipped to the next fixture...

Wales by 2
France by 27
Scotland by 11 (only as they will leading by 4 in to the last min and there is an interception by Kinghorn who goes under the posts)
To be honest these may be more results I would like to happen rather than remotely near what will happen

Congrats to TartanBear for winning Rd 2 with 4 points, followed by CM11 and Lemonhead with 6.
Quite a few dropouts so I have deleted them from the sheet.
