By far the best team is Ireland. Now the pressure is really on. As co- favourites, they have to at least get to the world cup final. Will their bottle hold?
After the finals a lot of the Irish players will retire, It will be good to see how good the Irish team is then?
England will have a better squad next season when these players come back into it. They were not available on Saturday, because of injury.
Sheridan
Stevens
Thompson
Hill
Moody
Hodgson
Robinson
Queto
Balshaw
Borthwick
Wales poor
Scotland very poor

From the 4 counties asked about, Ireland, with out a doubt.
Then England.
Wales and Scotland are about the same.
Hopefully all the Scottish players going to decent clubs will have a positive effect on the national team over the next few years.
How can all you guys say Ireland are better than France?
Only 2 weeks ago France Beat Ireland. That makes them better.

Currently Ireland are probably the best team. England are rebuilding and have a new inexperienced side - they have a long way to catch up. Scotland are not playing too well and are far behind. Wales are perhaps potentially the best, but have been very inconsistant, and don't seem to have the Winning disease...Ireland are confident and seem to know how to win when playing poorly...

Sorry its gotta be Ireland...if any of you watched the france game Ireland was under pressure from it being the first game in Croke park...they had a bad game and werent playing thier best and STILL came back to almost win....but the french SLIPPED in a try in the last two just barely winning...Ireland also beat the Springboks and Oz recently...NZ will be a challenge I think Ireland can manage...But among those 4...Ireland owns!
Just hope the english can beat the french out of pure embaressment!

If those teams played in a hypothetical four nations tournament then Ireland would probably win it with England second and Wales third, Scotland fourth.
Unfortunately they don't. They play in a Six Nations tournament that includes France and France is the best team by far in this tournament this year.

John F and RobEll is real. It has no longer something to do with historic past of the united kingdom. the 1st actual soccer institutions are that of england, Scotland, Wales and northern eire. They pre-date FIFA. the 1st actual soccer international became into between Scotland and England. additionally they had a unified earnings experience as against the international at Hampden Park of something like one hundred thirty,000 attendance that very much helped fund FIFA after the international conflict - and that they are ever grateful for that. -- "FIFA has a 50% illustration on its board (4 representatives); the different 4 are provided by utilising the soccer institutions of the united kingdom: England, Scotland, Wales, and northern eire, in popularity of their unique contribution to the introduction and historic past of the recreation.

Ireland are far superior in team spirit and attitude. They just want it more I guess.
England are pathetic considering the pool of players they can choose from - must be more to do with attitude than skill, and being badly led and badly coached.
Scotland and Wales are 'boys against men'. Not playing to their full potential, which isn't much anyway.
