So far so good then for defending champions Wales. My verdicts on all the teams:
England: An easy victory but the team lacks so much pace as to make them look like pensioners on the pitch.
Italy: What were they thinking! I have always had a soft spot for Italy but their lack of strength in depth will always make their task hard especially away from home.
Wales: Looked good and still posses all the elements that won them the grand slam last time round, but injuries to Ryan Jones and Shane Williams will worry fans.
France: A poor result but they showed enough flare to worry Scotland & Wales who will have to travel to Paris.
Ireland: Team of the weekend, they played like the good ol' days with confidence and a great set of running backs but they will need to be on top form in every game to pick up the title.
Scotland: Same old sorry story they try but they just cannot produce for eighty minutes, looked confortable in possession but lacked any bite and defence was easily shredded by Welsh team playing within themselves.
