Scotland v Wales in Cardiff (6 Nations)
France v Ireland in Paris (6 Nations)
Romania v Georgia in Tiblisi (WCQ Europe R5; ENC 1A)
Spain v Portugal in Lisbon (WCQ Europe R5; ENC 1A)
Russia v Belgium in Brussels (WCQ Europe R5; ENC 1A)

Briefly
England, France and Ireland all have the opportunity to win the 2014 6 Nations International Championship. Ireland would be favourites to win. They have a very big points difference advantage and only need to defeat France by 1 point in Paris to win outright despite any other result.

But history is against Ireland winning in Paris. They have not won in Paris for donkeys years. If France were to defeat Ireland England could win but would need a big win over Italy to catch Ireland’s big points difference..

France will be seeking a win over Ireland and hoping for an unlikely Italian win over England or at least keep the score low.

Romania and Georgia clash in Tiblisi for the ENC 1A 2014 title, the Antim Cup and a chance to play in an easier pool at the 2015 Rugby World Cup finals.

The feature games will the Ireland-France clash and the Romania-Georgia clash.
