Six Nations Rugby Results 2007

The 2007 RBS 6 Nations Championship was the eighth series of the rugby union Six Nations Championship and was won by France, on points difference. 15 matches were played over five weekends from 3 February to 17 March.

In the build-up to the competition, Ireland were being tipped as favourites for the Grand Slam, having played well during the Autumn Tests. However, despite having started strongly with a win against Wales, they lost to France 20-17 in an historic encounter at Croke Park. In turn, Ireland went on to beat England, who subsequently won against France.

Wales narrowly pipped Scotland from being wooden spooners with their last match win against England.
