I'd say Ireland also have to win...
Would imagine we'll have the same back 5 on the with the same lads on the bench which I love.
Also expecting Stockdale to come into the 23.
Only other likely changes are Murray in Casey out and possibly Herring starting. Could live with one of them but would be really ****** if both happen.
This team is in rather different place to Scotland, Ireland still somewhat in 'rebuilding phase'. Scotland also are at home.
You're gonna be ****** when a mustached Peter O'Mahony gets picked under some pseudonym.Would imagine we'll have the same back 5 on the with the same lads on the bench which I love.
I actually rate Scotland atm (was never one to buy in to any of the previous false-dawns but I am tempted now). Their pack is more than adequate at set-piece and at the breakdown and their kicking game is maybe the best in the championship for me this year.I could say this will be a close game that could go either way so no one can laugh at me if I'm wrong, but unfortunately for me I wasn't raised a fence sitting coward. Think we will win this by like 8ish points? I just think our pack are still stronger and we won't be nearly as generous with the penalties and territory as England were in their loss. I would also give zero credence to home advantage this year given how some games have gone now.
