SATURDAY
WALES 27-13 SOUTH
AFRICA
TIPIRIC SECOND ENSURES WALES BIG WIN
Hooker Ken Owens' try
from a lineout rumble in the 44th-minute opened a 14-point gap before Springbok
flanker Uzair Cassiem hit back.
Justin Tipuric's try clinched only a third-ever win over the
Springboks.
The defeat means South Africa have lost eight times in a
calendar year for the first time in their history.
The South African team at the moment seem to have a few serious
problems being seeded number 9 in the world and not seeming to pick up wins
that they should have as for Wales I think this was a win they targeted and should
be very happy with what they have done
IRELAND 27-24
KEITH EARLS SECURES
WIN FOR IRELAND
Tries from Iain Henderson and Garry Ringrose helped the
hosts to a 17-0 lead but the Wallabies fought back with three touchdowns to
move into the lead.
Keith Earls' score proved decisive but it was the Irish
forwards who laid the platform in a breathless encounter.
The result ended Australia's hopes of a Grand Slam over the
home nations.
In rugby circles this mist be considered the most successful
one for the Irish team especially after losing their main men in O Connell and
O Drisdol after the world cup last season. Winning against all 3 Southern Hemisphere
nations in one year is definitely an accomplishment in its own right and should
be seen as such.
ENGLAND 27-14
MAY ASSURES ENGLAND
BIG WIN
Wing Daly was
dismissed for taking out Leonardo Senatore in mid-air but a penalty try and
three Owen Farrell penalties opened up a 16-0 lead.
Tries from Facundo Isa and Santiago Cordero cut the gap to
two points.
A Jonny May score pulled England clear with Argentina's
Enrique Pieretto also sent off for a stamp on Joe Marler.

England are on for a grands slam against the Southern Hemisphere sides equalizing what Ireland have done this season comparing to another team is not easy as it it a different generation of sport but no one will compae as that team won the world cup
SCOTLAND 43-16 GEORGIA
HOGG DOUBLE AVOIDS EMBARRASSMENT FOR SCOTLAND
The visitors led briefly through Vasil Lobzhanidze's early
try, but the Scots raced ahead through Tommy Seymour, a penalty try, Sean Maitland
and Stuart Hogg before the break.
Hamish Watson extended the lead, battling over soon after
half-time.
Lobzhanidze bagged a second from a huge Georgian scrum,
before Hogg finished off a searing counter-attack.
Georgia need matches against better opponents on a more
regular basis as they had showed in this match that they could fight and had
the power but how do you set this up as you know that teams like Rominia,
Russia and Portugal will ask for it after so we do need a fairer system in place
for World Rugby as the northern teams do not play Southern teams who play at a
her level it is really tricky
