I had to look it up but Ireland France was postponed at the last second due to the cold.

Dont blame them...I wouldnt want to be driven into a frozen pitch at -10 degrees C!!

The Ireland and France match is postponed due to a frozen pitch....called off 10 minutes before the kick off.

England managed to steal a undeserved win against the poor Italians.

Wales beat the Scots.


Sorry Gandy and crew, my life is so hectic I cannot even find time to watch the games. Drove back from the Midlands on Sunday and the Wales V Scotland match was not on the radio even FFS... Should have got a DAB for the car.

Hope you all are well.......Rav QR my sig dude ;) !

Whiny baby. -10C is sweater weather. And turf at -10C is still softer than arena ice.

I am going to have to agree with Beerman. I have managed to watch a couple of episodes of a show called Ice Pilots. These crazy cunnuck barstewards flying dc3's and dc4's all over the northwest in mid winter.

hard core stuff.

I catch that show occasionally. Trying to start an engine when the lubricant is at -40C can be a bitch. :P

(FYI, It was -22C this morning when I stepped out for a smoke at the office. And yeah, I wore a sweater.)

I've moved the Ireland-France match to its rescheduled date, Sunday 4th March. It was stupid that it wasn't called off until 10 minutes before kick-off, it had been blinking freezing all week in Paris.

Congrats to Ion with a fantastic 91 out of 100 points so far! The all-time record is 206 and we're only a third of the way through so far. Also well done to me, as I scored 40 out of 40 last weekend :cool:

One of these days I'll fix that "correct winners" column...

I've just noticed the mathematical progression - in 2010 I came 3rd, in 2011 I came 2nd. May as well give up chaps because I'm going to win this one. The statistics don't lie.
