Since the six nations began in 2000, neither Italy or Scotland have won it. They’re not really a true contender either.I would rather see it kept at 6 nations, however the 6th nation should be an invitational spot... ask a different country every year or have a playoff structure of those that want to be involved... Italy have never been and most probably never will be true contenders..but get an up and coming team on a good run and it would be interesting.
But they won it as the 5 nations in 1999 and 13 other times since its inception... They were one of the founding teams and thus still deserve their place.Since the six nations began in 2000, neither Italy or Scotland have won it. They’re not really a true contender either.
Another 10 minutes and they'd have beaten France.
Scotland aren’t really improving SmallTown. Two and three seasons ago they won 3 games. Last season they only beat Italy and they’ve lost both so far this season.Scotland could be, they are improving. If only the had someone as good as Finn Russell
Italy just can't compete. Which strengthens the resolve to let someone else have a go. As has been mentioned, Georgia probably deserve a place at the top table, even Spain, Romania and Russia could beat Italy on their day
I’ll happily take a bet every six nations that Scotland won’t win it.I kind of disgaree, when you look at where they were ten years ago they were a different side. This season they could have easily beaten Ireland, and anyone could have won the storm Ciara lottery that was the Calcutta cup. Disciplining Russell has hurt them probably more than it hurt him, he could have turned both games on their heads.
