Dull Six Nations points to another year of Southern dominance
John Leicester is not very impressed with the standard of rugby on show in this year's Six Nations and predicts more joy for Australia, New Zealand and South Africa when the hemipsheres clash later this year. Read his thoughts in the New Zealand Herald.
"You can almost hear the All Blacks licking their lips. The Springboks and Wallabies, too, for that matter.
"Rugby's top three nations, New Zealand, Australia and South Africa, can hardly be experiencing any other emotion than expectant satisfaction as they look northward to the less than impressive spectacle being offered by Europe in the Six Nations tournament that is throwing up more spills than thrills. Much of it so far hasn't been pretty or terribly encouraging for hopes that European teams might mount a genuine title challenge at the next World Cup."
