I like any of the home nations to do well. I'll begin supporting the underdog but later in the tournament I'll support whoever has the best chance of beating France to the championship! (I don't hate France, but I wont support them against other European opposition).

I do have a big soft spot for Italy, as I like seeing rugby develop as a world sport and seeing the less traditional teams doing well. Italy have really come on over the years

I have tickets for Scotland v Wales and Scotland v Italia. Can't wait! Scotland did really well in the autumn dow to the fact that they play as a unit, something England could do with learning! Scotland could be dark horses this year!
