    We will see but I get the feeling that the focus this year is all on the World Cup for Ireland they do not want to show their hand during the 6 nations and hence the very predictable play. Look at the Irish team more then half of whom play for Leinster they have won everything in club Rugby and done it all internationally except for the World Cup. That is the one area where Ireland and most of our current players be they younger ones or veterans have yet to do anything of note. Time will tell if I am right but I think the focus this year is very much on the World Cup.

    Scottish sport, across the board, plagued by mistakes at the top level. It’s a national trait.

    No need for that there.

    Abysmal from Scotland so far. Too many injuries for them but no excuse for so many basic errors.

    Laidlaw misses that kick 1% of the time. Not going to be Scotland’s day.

    England will put 50 on Scotland at Twickenham at this rate.
