Comfortable win for France ends round 2 of the Six Nations

The second round of the most exciting and unpredictable six nations ever ended with something of a rarity - a game going to form, with France comfortable defeating Scotland in Arras this afternoon. France were rarely troubled, leading with a penalty in the opening minutes, opening up a 15-7 lead by halftime, and eventually running out winners 25-12 (SRU match report).

So after two rounds of games the table looks like this:

Position	Nation	Games				Points		Table points
		played	won	drawn	lost	for	against
1	Wales	2	2	0	0	47	25	4
2	Ireland	2	2	0	0	42	22	4
3	England	2	1	0	1	85	29	2
4	France	2	1	0	1	30	29	2
5	Scotland	2	0	0	2	22	56	0
6	Italy	2	0	0	2	30	104	0

Remarkably, two weeks into the tournament...

• England have not only missed out on a fourth Grand Slam, they will also - for the first time since 1998 - not win the Triple Crown.
• The only teams now capable of winning a Grand Slam have never previously won the championship - in fact Ireland have never finished higher than fourth.
• A tournament where the most interesting question is normally who will finish second can now realistically go any of four ways... 

On the subject of which I am trying out the online opinion poll gadget (top of the column on the left) - so who do you think will win?
