Great first weekend of my favorite tournament of the year!

Lololol at the fricking Frenchies. What a bunch of short shitting clowns.

Good on England for going old school and just dirtying up and beating the shite out of Ireland. They really looked like they expected to walk in and have it handed to them and didn't know what to do when England punched them in the mouth.

I've bookmarked this thread because I'm very interested in watching the games that are on TV and not at pay-sites on the internet.

Go Wales. Ich Dien.

They said they were going to do it, and they executed perfectly. Ireland had no answer. Kept running stupid sextop loop passes and getting tackled behind the gain line.

MLR standings after two weeks.

USA are the Buffalo Bills of 7s rugby. Another final appearance, another loss. Still on top the table, with a few weeks rest before Vegas.

Still, historic progress for USA Rugby 7's. We're now officially more than just Carlin's tries on a sprint down the touch line. A bit more sophistication and a bit more bite to go with that speed.

MLR is on ESPN+, Facebook, and CBS Sports
Six Nations is live on NBC Sports Gold and tape delayed on NBC Sports. I usually find a live stream of BBC on my computer.

Super Rugby, Pro 14, and European Rugby Champions Cup can be found on ESPN+.

English Premiership is on NBC Sports.

I am still in mourning over the domination by England. Never really felt like Irelands day. England ownes the aerial game, the ground game, etc

Really shredded Farrells defense. The only way I can spin this is that it may be a wake up call for the World Cup for Ireland.

I am now in Scotland already dreading Saturday. Not sure all the Whisky tours will numb the pain.
