Well, Ireland can only beat what’s in front of them I suppose. Ireland have one of their all time great teams, if not their best ever, but it would be nice for them to have some competition in this tournament.
I honestly don’t know. A copious amount of stuff drank. sitting here in an Irish Pub (shock, horror) watching the match
I expect Scotland to beat England if they play as they did against France, where they were totally robbed by yet more poor officiating. The TMO actually said...."and there's the ball on the ground".....before saying there was no evidence to award the try. An epic bollock drop to match football's VAR. The referee in England's game was equally inept, awarding a ridiculous penalty try and leaving England with 13 men.
Col - I agree that the award of a penalty try was harsh, but Roots would have been shown a yellow card in any case for collapsing the maul, so England would have been down to 13 at that point
Thought Scotland were very harshly treated there TBH but had enough ball in hand and territory to win that game several times over. Russell’s game management questionable yet again
Good weekend of 6N’s ahead. looking forward to Ire v Wal. Wales much better than results suggest. I’m expecting a high scoring match and Ire to win by 12-15. game of the weekend in Murrayfield. Interesting for several reasons. Will Eng go for power or continue to expand their attacking plays. Think Eng will play the forwards game here to snatch a win as if it’s an open game, Scotland will score tries.
Can't believe we've switched full backs, could be carnage if Jocks put up alot of high balls. I'm not confident at all and would be surprised if Scotland don't win
