Round 4
10 March 2018

Ireland 28 v Scotland 8

France 22 v England 16

Wales 38 v Italy 14

Some consolation in the fact that... France Beat the Poms AND Wales won with a (try) bonus point ;)
Nice to see Wales at least in second place (ahead of England)

Ireland Won - 6 Nations, Triple Crown, Grand Slam

Image

Quote:
The Championship was won by Ireland on 10 March 2018, with their four wins (three with try bonus points) from the first four matches sufficient to place them out of reach of the other participants ahead of the final round. This was the third tournament running where the championship and Wooden Spoon had been decided by the end of round four. After a 24–15 victory in Twickenham, Ireland secured a Grand Slam, their third ever, alongside a Triple Crown.


Triple Crown - is a contest among "home Nations" (England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales)
Awarded if one team beats the other 3

Grand Slam - Awarded to side if they win all their games in the 6 nations.
