One thing we can all take away from this Six Nations. Northern Hemisphere Rugby is shit right now.
France -> Shocking, bad management and a lack of real quality, I've no idea what's going on with French Rugby at the moment, since the stuffings they took off the Argies at the WC French Rugby has looked to be in dissarray.
England -> Poor, a couple of bright sparks but nothing to suggest that squad can become a force. Plus I think Martin Johnson is a poor choice at manager. English rugby needs to stop getting sidetracked by over rated rubbish like Cipriani and focus on finding the next Joe Worsley or Simon Shaw. Number 10 is always going to be a hard position to fill but what's the point in filling it when you've nobody to recycle the ball to him.
Ireland -> Aging, great Grand Slam but sadly I think it was a last hurrah for a generation that would have achieved a lot more had it not been for that fuckhead O'Sullivan, next couple of years will be crucial but I simply don't see the players coming through that can replace the quality going out D'Arcy(29), O'Gara(32), O'Driscoll(30), O'Callaghan(29), O'Connell(29), Stringer(31), Geordan Murphy(30), Paddy Wallace(29), Shane Horgan(30), Flannery(30), Hayes(35), Horan(31), David Wallace(32). That's an awful lot of talent that's reaching its sell by date.
Scotland -> Poor but finally showing signs of improvement.
Italy -> Poorest they've been in years, decent showing against Wales but missing a couple of stars who can create or finish something off.
Wales -> Their time is quickly coming to an end, like Ireland most of the team is hitting 29/30 years with versy few younger lads stepping up to take their places. There's a couple of years left in the tank but without gradually bringing in the youngsters now the wall will be hit hard and painfully, 2 maybe 3 years from now.
