Ireland have been crowned 2018 NatWest 6 Nations Champions with a week to go, after a snug win against the Scots and it is looking increasingly likely that bar a massive final weekend upset, Johan Taylor will claim the 2018 Prediction Challenge title. The canny South African, along with PSA Chairman Philippe Saint-Andre, were the only two team members who got the full set of predictions right at the weekend, including the French upset when they turned over Eddie Jones’ ragged England in Stade de France.

The 2018 6 Nations Predictions Challenge rules are simple. Each competitor needs to give us a simple match summary plus a winner prediction and winning margin (if a draw was predicted, they need to predict the total match points). It is 5 points for a correct result prediction and 5 points for a correct winning margin/total draw match points total.
The ‘expert’ with the most points at the end of the tournament is crowned the 6 Nations Predictions Challenge ‘King of the Picks’, whilst the person finishing last needs to make a public donation (amount TBC) to our 2018 Charity partner Unicef Ireland at our upcoming Unicef Ireland Charity Rugby Clinics in Ireland in April.
