@stargazer No Finn Russell and no Sean Maitland. Are Scotland only picking Scottish-based players?

23 Steff Evans (10 Caps) -
Considering our injuries and unavailability (outside the test window) that's a pretty handy team.
Will be interesting to see if Lydiate is still relevant. And effective.
Great to see Anscombe getting a chance at 10.
Even better to see Jarrod Evans on the bench to complement / take over from an ineffective Anscombe.
We should have too much for Scotland, but when it comes to the Autumn we're notoriously slow starters.
Hopefully us by 9-13 with plenty of tries.
-
That's a strong Wales team. 10 will be the interesting one to watch. I've never been too sold on Anscombe and Evans I don't know anything of. Is Patchell injured?
-
@catogrande Patchell is in the squad for the November tests, so I assume he's not injured.

Stood down to recover from concussion.
Will feature in subsequent tests, as will Biggar.
Evans has been the Blues 10 the past two seasons usurping Shingler and forcing Anscombe to 15.
Beautifully balanced runner with ball in two hands, deceptively quick. Time on the ball.
Reminds me of Iestyn Harris at his best in League.

Naaa the Scots are doing this one for Doddie Weir. No chance. Scotland by 20.
I think it was about this time last year I got kicked out of a Scottish Rugby Facebook group ( again ) for having a laugh at the name Fagerson ( FAGerson). An admin messaged me saying they had close to 50 complaints about my juvenile and homophobic behaviour.
Retorting and calling him a snowflake with no sense of humour did nothing to help my cause unfortunately.

There is an horrific story about a photographer being kicked off the Torbay facebook page on the absolute crap thread. I warn you that it is quite disturbing.

@machpants The link works, and yes. Terrible stuff. Hard to get over.
I should probably get this back on track before a ban gets mentioned.
So Anscombe - "I think he's the greatest, but my dad says he don't work hard enough on defense." Flying high week reference.

Most important part of this test is the right dints at the RWU and SRU agreed to actually donate towards the cause they used to advertise the fixture. A few of my mates overseas purchased tickets thinking that was always the case. As a matter of principle they were going to boycott the game of it didn't change

Yes shit form, which thankfully has been rectified.
