Knock on Ireland

Wales Scrum in their own 22

Well it’s going to be another exciting game today. Wales are taking on Ireland in Dublin with the aim of keeping their dream of a Six Nations Championship win alive this year!

WALES NOW HAVE NO HOPE OF WINNING THE GRAND SLAM – Winning all 5 of their games.

NOR CAN THEY WIN THE TRIPLE CROWN - Beating all of the other 3 Home Nations - as they lost (controversially) to England a fortnight ago.

BUT WALES ARE STILL IN WITH A CHANCE OF WINNING THE COMPETITION!
Wales cannot afford to lose another game or their hopes will likely be dashed.

Wales fans have been arriving in Dublin in droves. In fact, 30 extra flights have been laid on to accommodate the thousands of fans heading over to Ireland. And Dublin City certainly knows how to make it’s visitors welcome.
