    Quick one, if we beat England today who can win the Triple Crown? Am I right in saying it is Wales? Sorry this has just been a disappointing 6nations.

    Only England are on for the Triple Crown.

    The Triple Crown is winning all your matches against the home nations. So some years no-one wins it.

    If we beat England, there will be no Triple Crown won in 2011. For England to have a Triple Crown/Grand Slam on the line in the last match, it means that only their opposition could potentially also be competing for either title, and as we clearly are not, then if England lose, there will be no Triple Crown.

    Actually, we retain the Triple Crown.

    Its a trophy to be lost, not to be won, because there are years when nobody can win it.

    So we are the holders of the Triple Crown, even though we didn't win it!
