Strong team. Scotland by about 30.
I wonder if any other squad in World Rugby has players born in Scotland, Tonga, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand ( aw hang on, Maitland isn’t playing ) and England all playing in the same team ? Someone should ask Stephen Jones to write a well researched and balanced article on it.

I really looking forward to this game. Match of the round I reckon. I not overly confident on who will win this, Scots look pretty good, but I never write off an Eddie Jones team.
I’ve said it before, the Scots are on the way up. Look how many Lions they had in the backline ? Extraordinary stuff. Only one way this one will be going…..

I love the mouth-watering names: haggis, neeps, crootie dumplings, electric soup...

13 Elliot Daly (Saracens, 52 caps)
12 Henry Slade (Exeter Chiefs, 43 caps)England making loads of changes in the midfield again, I see. Maybe Jones is looking to build everything around Marcus Smith. Or he's taking the NZ approach...

On the whole I agree. But there always exceptions. A couple of years back I had the haggis and the venison off this menu here.
I can't tell you what I had for dinner at most nice restaurants I've been to over the last couple of years, but I remember this one. It was that good.
Regarding the game, really excited for it, really expect Scotland to put up a fight, attack hard and get stuck in.
So, it will be dour and England will win.
