[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 1141978, member: 39190"] It's difficult to try and put a number on it. I've never seen Scotland as too much of a threat though I have respect for their URC sides in that context. We just don't play them in a proper test enough. I do understand that they are in form but at the same time I feel like we are as well. I almost want to say I give us a 2 score head start but in saying that I want to give it a wider than usual margin because we can inflate a win now seemingly and at the same time Scotland could get a score ot two without any right to. But I'll just stick to my gut and say SA by 8 if only because my nerves wouldn't be able to keep up otherwise. But I'll revisit when the teams are announced. I am really hoping for a few specific names in specific places again as I want to see them against a team with the ability to launch a great wide game with half an eye on NZ and France in the QF I admit. But I have confidence that the players themselves aren't looking too far ahead otherwise this pool could get really interesting from the off. [/QUOTE]
