Sadly, technical difficulties on the Radio Jem frequency ;-) ;-) (ie.. I don't have BT SPORTS) means there will be no running commentary from me, but I will try to bring updates/ scores gleaned from the website.

If any of you have BT Sports and want to post, please do :-)

Well done Wales and well done Myfanwy :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D <3

RADIO JEM & THE RUGBY GANG
WISH SCOTLAND A BIG WIN v FRANCE TONIGHT! :-) :-) :-) :-)

Incase you have access to BT Sports for the game, and you want to sing along with the Scottish Anthem when the time comes, here's....


....O FLOWER OF SCOTLAND

O flower of Scotland
When will we see your like again
That fought and died for
Your wee bit hill and glen
And stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again

The hills are bare now
And autumn leaves lie thick and still
O'er land that is lost now
Which those so dearly held
And stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again

Those days are passed now
And in the past they must remain
But we can still rise now
And be the nation again
That stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again


They may not sing all the verses sadly!

FRANCE v SCOTLAND
