Global Results - 14 March 2010
What a match in Paris! After the dull stuff of Murrayfield the match between France and Italy sparkled. The French were full of sparkle and it seemed to rub off on Italy who ended brightly. It was the most entertaining of this year’s Six Nations.
The Waratahs posted a team record against the Lions while in Hamilton the Crusaders showed that they were back in town.
Benetton Treviso won yet another cup.
The coming weekend is a fascinating one for those who follow the European Nations Cup – the Six Nations B.
