Nice to actually look forward to a game for once. I don't think we'll win but hoping we can back up that performance against Ireland and run Scotland close.

I won't lie - Howley's absence is a slight concern.

Can't be sneakier than England.

The Wales way of winning is the other team getting 10 reds and 5 yellows. They never win if it's 15 v 15

Not many changes to either side. Lake and Assarati come in on the bench and Darcy Graham back for Scotland.

First time in 66 tests that Wales have named an unchanged team.

I have no idea what to think leading into this game.
On the one hand I'm quietly positive we can compete and possibly secure a much needed W vs a very good scottish side.
But on the other I'm worried that the Irish game was part bounce, part catching Ireland by surprise after being so totally inept v France and Italy.
The main reason I think the first is more likely is becsuse the Ireland game was more than just a 'new coach bounce' imo. There was shape to our attack, solidity at the set piece, and a general change of attitude that bodes well.
Some have referenced Cardiff's lack of translating good attacking rugby into results under Sherrat, and that does concern me slightly. But I think Wales has a pack capable of competing for 80min. v Scotland, and that's not always the case for Cardiff. But we'll have to wait and see.
