I think we’ve had this discussion before, but the draw and groups are insane, and doubtless a result of being done way too early. England obviously massively over achieved at the last World Cup, and forced us to dream based on one incredible performance. No fear of that this time and we should focus on the real contenders.
Scotland could well come out of our group. A dangerous dangerous team.
It’s the group of death. On any given day, Scotland well capable of beating SA or IRE.
Here we go. It’s a tough group, but Scotland have beaten Ireland precisely once since 2013, and that was in 2017. So their ‘given day’ doesn’t come round very often. Likewise South Africa haven’t beaten you outside of South Africa since 2012. You can do the old trick of talking down your chances, but you well know this is Ireland’s best chance ever, right up there with the favourites. The All Blacks are good but not vintage and the French are the French.

Good luck. I reckon you’ll get to the final.
And then bottle it.
Are you going over for any games?
No need to be offensive Beth lol. But I get your point, can't believe how low both sides have fallen
At least that will stop the crying here since Friday night
