I know Scotland are desperately searching for uninjured props........but.......... D'arcy.
I just hope he is as tough as a boy named Sue.

First time in many years where I feel there is a realistic chance of Scotland performing well in the competition. Looking forward to it this year.

Not this year I don’t think, can’t see past Ireland if Leinsters current form is anything to go on.

Performed well last year Dave, 3 wins again this year would be superb especially as I feel 2 of them will have to be away from home.

Heading to the opener in Cardiff, cant wait

Agree with this, as long as Scotland keep showing improvement I'll be happy :thup:

1 away match confirmed, pretty sure ticket for one of our home matches is secured and some crazy talk about another trip for a second away game this year Can't wait :thup:

I reckon England may struggle down mainly to injuries/suspension/form, but Ireland have to come to twickenham, if it was Dublin I’d give us little chance currently. Can’t look past murrayfield either if your lotcan find a couple of props & Stuart hodge is fit

Who is Stuart Hodge?

 

[GB72]

Really can see any ome of the home nations winning this year. Ireland remain strong, Scotland have a great chance if they can avoid injury to key players, Wales could struggle due to injuries but they said that at the last world cup and England have an easier mix of home and away matches but I feel that injury to Billy could be crucial. France, who knows.

hahaha. Someone who I used to know, ..... Hogg

Scotland look overpriced at 11/1. Expect that to drop massively when they beat Wales in the opener.

11/1 as third favourites? I'd say 11/1 was fair if not a bit under.

I can't see that to be honest.

Scottish front row will really struggle and we cannot expect our backs to do what they are so good at if they cannot get hold of the ball.

Price over Laidlaw will be an interesting choice. I called for Price before Laidlaw was injured, Laidlaw was a bit too slow for me and we are not so reliant on his kicking any more.

I just hope we see a lot of line kicking and few scrums/rucks.

Blimey the Scots are a bit chirpy this year, can’t you tell they’ve got a half decent team for once 😜

Our first choice front row is now down to 4th choice.......just being realistic.

 

[IanM]

This back again? Oh my, the natives go all feisty for the next 7 weeks!

I’m always chirpy but I’m a realist, we won’t win, 3rd at best

This years 6 Nations could be a cracker

Think England have the slight edge because of the friendlier fixture list but Ireland do look very strong. Prob the best Scotland side for a while so can see those three in the top three slots

Really looking forward to it - shame Billy out for England though

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Could be tight. A fully fit Scottish side would be capable of causing a few shocks and may have even won it. That said, simply because of the way the fixtures are, I think England will win the title but not a grand slam. Won't be pretty and they'll get run close
