C'mon Scotland, today was your day to prove your cousin Ireland wasn't the only one who could deliver an upset! :mad:

A year ago England beating the Saffers would of been an upset as well. It shows how far England and South Africa have come in that time.

Having watch the game did it look like South Africa were playing like an old fashioned England team and England played more like a classic South Africa team.

Here is the Scotland team that will lose in yet another agonising fashion against Argentina. Good to see Bradbury get a start, he's played well for Edinburgh and U20 Scotland, will be a test to see if he's ready for international level. Twelve Glasgow Warriors players make up the team so hopefully they'l bring that cohesion to the side and cut out any daft errors. It's a pretty inexperienced side but they've all played well so far, will see how that goes.

1 Allan Dell (Edinburgh Rugby) – 1 cap

2 Fraser Brown (Glasgow Warriors) – 18 caps

3 Zander Fagerson (Glasgow Warriors) – 2 caps

4 Grant Gilchrist (Edinburgh Rugby) – 13 caps

5 Jonny Gray (Glasgow Warriors) – 26 caps

6 Magnus Bradbury (Edinburgh Rugby) – uncapped

7 Hamish Watson (Edinburgh Rugby) – 3 caps

8 John Barclay (Scarlets) – 53 caps

9 Greig Laidlaw CAPTAIN (Gloucester) – 54 caps

10 Finn Russell (Glasgow Warriors) – 20 caps

11 Tommy Seymour (Glasgow Warriors) – 29 caps

12 Alex Dunbar (Glasgow Warriors) – 17 caps

13 Huw Jones (Stormers) – 2 caps

14 Sean Maitland (Saracens) – 24 caps

15 Stuart Hogg (Glasgow Warriors) – 46 caps

Substitutes
16 Ross Ford (Edinburgh Rugby) – 100 caps

17 Alex Allan (Glasgow Warriors) – 1 cap

18 Moray Low (Exeter Chiefs) – 35 caps

19 Tim Swinson (Glasgow Warriors) – 24 caps

20 Ryan Wilson (Glasgow Warriors) – 21 caps

21 Ali Price (Glasgow Warriors) – uncapped

22 Pete Horne (Glasgow Warriors) – 21 caps

23 Tim Visser (Harlequins) – 27 caps

:patriot:
How much of a difference is the lock pairing returning for the ABs going to make?

Conversely, what impact will Jackson have coming off the bench? As an Ulster fan I like him a good deal when he isn't assaulting women but if Sexton has to come off before like minute 70 Ireland are hosed IMO.

Retallick and Whitelock being unavailable a couple of weeks ago was a massive blow for the All Blacks going into the game.

:unsmith:
Carbery did fine when he came on, I've enough faith in Paddy to do the same if not better if Sexton cramps up again. Sadly I'm in Krakow so I'll be spending tomorrow running around looking for somewhere to watch the game, had to watch the last one on my phone so if all else fails I suppose I can do that again ffs.

That's a hell of an All Blacks team though, I just hope we can follow up with the kind of precision and intensity we had in the first game and not get blown away by a hungry All Blacks side.

All Blacks to win against Ireland, probably by single digits
Scotland over the Argies by 10
Australia over France comfortably

All Blacks by 15 or more
Argentina by about a try or so
Australia by 20
Wales by an absolute shitload...enough to give us hope before getting spanked next week

Edit: And of course, Cuthbert and Williams conspire to gently caress it up within the first 10 minutes.
