Put $10 on a Wales win

6 Nations 2016.

Since three of those "nations" are actually all a part of one nation, it would more accurate to call this the "Four Nations" competition...

Wrong, no-real-sports guy! One definition is:

a large aggregate of people united by common descent, history, culture, or language, inhabiting a particular country or territory

Of those four criteria, Wales and Scotland lack at least one (culture) in comparison to England although their descent is pretty common. They must differ in history and/or language from each other somehow.

Ireland (13) 16
Try: Murray Con: Sexton Pens: Sexton 3

Wales (10) 16
Try: Falateu Con: Priestland Pens: Priestland 3




Ireland let a 13-point lead slip as Wales fought back for a draw in a compelling Six Nations match in Dublin.

The home team led 13-0 after 28 minutes thanks to Conor Murray's try and eight points from the boot of Johnny Sexton.

But Wales hit back with Taulupe Faletau's try converted by replacement fly-half Rhys Priestland, whose 72nd-minute penalty edged Wales 16-13 ahead.

Sexton's third penalty squared things and Priestland's late drop-goal attempt was off target in a breathless finale.

RBS Six Nations

Wales (10) 27
Tries: Davies, Roberts, North, Cons: Biggar 3 Pens: Biggar 2

Scotland (13) 23
Tries: Seymour, Taylor Cons: Laidlaw, Weir Pens: Laidlaw 3



Wales cut loose in the final 20 minutes to register a ninth consecutive win over Scotland.

But Warren Gatland's team had an uncomfortable hour before tries from Jamie Roberts and George North lifted the siege.

Scotland led 13-10 after Tommy Seymour's try cancelled out Gareth Davies's early touchdown.

Duncan Taylor's late try was little more than a consolation for the Scots, who have not won in Cardiff since 2002.

Wales (6) 19
Tries: North
Cons: Biggar
Pens: Biggar 4


France (3) 10
Tries: Guirado
Cons: Trinh-Duc
Pens: Plisson

Unbeaten Wales recorded their fifth consecutive win over France to set-up a potential Six Nations title showdown with England at Twickenham on 12 March.

George North's second try in as many games helped Wales open up a 13-point lead early in the second half.

France enjoyed long periods of pressure, but by the time Guilhem Guirado drove over it was too late to matter.

Dan Biggar kicked 14 points as Wales moved to the top of the Six Nations.

But Wales will head to Twickenham with plenty of work to do after a stuttering display against a France side who failed to make them pay for conceding a stream of penalties in the second half.

I have better things to do with $10. Like put it in the collection at an AA meeting.
