Scotty Donaldson looks at Six Nations 2013 Round 2?
Six Nations 2013 has already thrown up a major surprise with Sergio Parisse's Italian side defeating tournament favourites France. This makes Round 2 difficult to pick because it is difficult to tell if Italy can repeat the dose against Scotland. It is also compulsory for both France and Wales to win when they meet, if they are to have any chance of winning the Six Nations. England or Ireland will probably go to the top of the table if they win on Sunday.
The midfields are interesting this round with Manu Tuilagi unable to force his way back into the England fold. France have recalled Mathieu Bastareaud to their midfield, while Italy welcome Gonzalo Canale into their team following injuries.
I am picking that Manu Tuilagi will get onto the field at some stage.
My picks for Round 2:
Game Date and time Your pick
[5] France v Wales 9 Feb 17:00 (local) 10 Feb 05:00 (your time*) France by 7
[6] Ireland v England 10 Feb 15:00 (local) 11 Feb 04:00 (your time*) England by 7
[16] Scotland v Italy 9 Feb 14:30 (local) 10 Feb 03:30 (your time*) Scotland by 3
