Week One

Picks for the weekend are as follows (and may not be consistent with original predictions):

Ireland 32 Italy 17
England 25 Wales 20
Scotland 17 France 19

Thinking again about my comments before, I think if Scotland are to do well this year, they may have to beat France. And with France blooding four new caps - including at fly half, c'est posible.

However, the game I think will be close, and the French might nick it. Potential for upsets all over the place this weekend, with Wales looking for a first win in 20 years at Twickenham, France looking inexperienced and Ireland... well, I don't really know. But I've stuck my neck out and gone for Ireland, England and France this weekend.
