On a question of stats, I saw someone above predict a draw. Surely he/she should get more than a mere 20 points for that if said game ends as a draw?! I can't imagine much more than 3 or 4% of Int Rugby matches end in a draw so he'she has a 96/97% chance of being wrong, whereas picking a winner is a mere 53% chance of being wrong.

Interesting how close the winners and point differences are in almost all picks. Just a couple of optimistic (delusional?) Wales fans bucking the trend!

Wales 21 - 17 Ireland - Wales just too strong
England 12 - 9 Scotland- Always seems to be a awful match (no tries)

Sunday 3rd Feb 2013
Italy 18 - 15 France- Feeling that Italy will just win with 6 penalties.

welshman4life the only one brave enough to predict an Italian victory. Fair play sir.

His first choice and comment does suggest luck rather than judgement though Whistle

by sportform Sun 03 Feb 2013, 7:32 pm

It turned out to be a tough week to predict with Ireland winning in Cardiff and Italy beat France. No-one managed to call all three games so could be a low scoring first week. I will get a leaderboard up sometime Monday.

by nathan Sun 03 Feb 2013, 7:58 pm

Most people went with there own team

by thebluesmancometh Sun 03 Feb 2013, 8:04 pm

Most welsh posters didn't!!

There are 9 people who thought Wales would win, more people thought that Ireland would win away from home against the reigning champions, with a lot of them being Welsh posters (including me)

Yep, we are terribly deluded.

by bedfordwelsh Mon 04 Feb 2013, 5:32 am

Well despite hate being proved right I went for a Wales defeat due mainly to my total and utter lack of confidence in Howler.

The France result would have upset most predictions though.

Tough ask for France to play twice this weekend...
