Aussie is a coint toss
We should win if we step up in the forwards and the bench play well. I'm not confident though ... the odds look best for an upset -

That’s probably true. They’re far too busy whinging about Murray getting booted out of Wimbledon.

I thought he was only Scottish when he was winning. Lose and he reverts to British.

Aside from the lack of physicality in our tight 5, we feel very predictable to play against. Are we going to see anything different? Honestly, it feels like old school shit Blues style, where we throw the ball wide and hope for some individual magic to win games. We haven't coped with a rush since Lions 1, and there our fatties were sensational.
I think we should win - but I am far from confident. I can see us copping a Red as well if we don't keep tackle heights down (and the cursed bent over running style of opposition)
-
I'm confident we'll win. What i'm not confident in is if we'll look like we've turned a corner at all.
-
@nzzp I hope there aint any cards, Red means gone completely doesnt it?
this is what Red cards are there for, to deal with this filth, not accidental head contact, but even so, I think 20 mins for Ireland with only 14 was sufficient, heaslip was gone.
-
@gibbon-rib yeah I actually knew that but it didn't fit my agenda of disagreeing with @MN5 on principle.
-
@taniwharugby One of the worst red cards I've seen. Thug.
-
@mariner4life Home advantage and the history that comes with it says we'll win, but I wish I was relying more on the players!
My confident feeling departed when Will Jordan said, "Fuck, I think I've got a bit of a sore throat"! .

We tend to agree on music. Stop being so negative.

@MN5 the Stones are the greatest band ever.

that's sorta the point
if the winning and losing of the game at our absolute fortress is the presence of one, admisttedly very exciting, winger, then we really are completely fucked. Especially considering the rest of the XV was probably penned in before the Covid issues.

That works this week, and 2020....

@mariner4life My plan for winning RWC 2023 is basically for Will to burgle it for us!

@mariner4life Give the ball to Jonah!!!
Yeah - Reuben used to go to lock on occasion - especially for the Crusaders vs Jaapie teams and we'd run them off their feet.

I'd like to think that but I feel we are a bit suss at tighthead and won't get the scrum dominance over Aus that we are used to. A bit light in the centres and a bit undercooked on one wing. I think it will be close but we will get shaded.

Really, Oz without tupou is really weak up front. He's it IMO.

@mariner4life even I will join the "Fozzie is fat" brigade.

Depends who is telling the story, English or Scots ...

Anyway, I picked SH x3.
Least confident about Aus.
