Rugby Union

The current Six Nations Championship may be the most open - and therefore from that point of view, the most interesting and exciting - for several seasons, but the standard of rugby being played is pretty dire. I think the people who must really be rubbing their hands are Australia and New Zealand, who must now be really fancying their chances in next year's World Cup. If we can't produce anything better than what's been on offer so far - and by "we" I mean the Northern Hemisphere teams - we are going to be buried!
