I'm a Galway lad leaving in East London for the last four years. Work in a city-type job although my current job is not based in the city. Bit of a sports fan and especially follow my home town soccer team. Go to a lot of music festivals as a Steward, helping raise money for Oxfam.

aj_irishSat 09/02/08 18:04		The Six Nations is the only major tournament in rugby that does not use the bonus point system: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugby_union_bonus_points_system
aj_irishSat 09/02/08 18:10		If the Six Nations used the bonus point system, the table would be: I messed that up - apologies! Here is the correct alternative table: Team P W D L F A BP PTS 1 France 2 2 0 0 53 27 1 9 2 Wales 2 2 0 0 56 34 0 8 3 Ireland 2 1 0 1 37 37 1 5 4 Italy 1 0 0 1 11 16 1 1 5 England 1 0 0 1 19 1 26 1 6 Scotland 2 0 0 2 21 0 57 0 Given this approach Wales are not level at the top with France.
