My favorite time of year is about here.....6Nations and the stretch in NHL!!!!
Well, let's start it off by trying to figure out who will take the title this year. England and France off to a quick start on the favorites race.
France $2.85
England $2.85
Ireland $5.05
Wales $7.05
Scotland $13.15
Italy $153.50

I think England has really put it together this time around and I like MJ's 33 off the bat. I really think the Red Roses are the cream of the crop in Europe this year, however......................
............their schedule sucks and France will find it a little easier. That being said, I think Lievremont has bungled his side up into enough confusion that he won't be able to take advantage of it.
The Welsh are the wild card, as they are each and every year. So full of potential, so full of a possible big letdown.
The Scots, I reckon, will see their best 6Nations in ages. They will be a force this year and will push their European neighbors to the limit. Still, I can't see them topping the English or the Tri-Colours for the title.
The Italians. Well, I admire their fortitude and energy, but they are still not where they need to be. Stocking their ranks with promising young Kiwi exiles is not exactly a solid blueprint for the future.
So, my initial lean is England at the too damn short price of $2.85. I am looking forward to a Wilko return to glory and England finally getting it right for once.
That being said, I always barrack the Scots each and every 6Nations, but when I have money in it, all bets are off......erm....well, you know what I mean.
Chime in please!!!!
