Scotland v All Blacks

@MN5 I love myself a packed Murryfield...quiet and that smurk wiped off Finn Russel's face.

For me ‘flower of Scotland’ is unmatched, such an awesome pre match experience when the crowd goes hard.

Scotland always win the anthems. It’s just the games themselves that can be an issue sometimes

Believe the Rugby Championship Twitter account has leaked the team an hour early

Hahaha wtf. All four of the loose forwards are fucking midgets. Razor is a spastic.

That team confirmed?

Seriously underwhelmed by the loosies and reserve midfielder.

And not particularly whelmed by 10. But we're used to that.

Oh well. Good luck lads.

Test match footy is a big man's game.

Not a great fan of those loosies because they are quite small, but Jacobson doesn’t fix that issue.

Parker was poor last week, and Finau seems to be in the camp with a few others (a tackle bag holder). Despite what some might argue, Papalii still isn’t a good carrier in tight, and given injuries we just don’t have the options.

Feel like Razor is a bit damned if he does or damned if he doesn’t this week.

Completely forgot about him! Would be really interesting to see how he goes as an impact player.

The glimpses i had of him in Perth suggested the pace was back. Covers wing and midfield (played a super season at 12).

Edit: the option we've chosen is an underperformed single position player.

They can afford that loose forward mix against a team that isn’t going to overpower them.

Guessing we won’t see Mr Ioane until the URC

Should be fine as long as Cam can last another 78.
