RWC Week 5: Ireland v Scotland
-
think this is the highlight of the final round of group matches. Scotland are a good side and could get up, but if they do i don't think it will be mindset issues from Ireland. Ireland seem like they're the most well prepared side, have done the mental work, know that momentum is important etc. Can't see Ireland slipping up I don't think.

IMO Scotland will never have a better chance to get one over their old foe.

English never was my strong point. I can’t see Ireland slipping up. But I can see them losing. Excited about this one

You can't imagine Sexton carded for a neck roll or backchat?

GO on Scotland, dominate them. And if you can't make it dominant, beat them. And if you can't beat them, at least get Sexton petulant.

A Scottish blowout BP victory would be hilarious. It would make me less worried about whatever happened with the All Blacks if Ireland did not make it out of their pool.
For some reason Ireland is the team I dislike the most.

probably because they're the best side in the world and you don't speak French. YOu take disliking South Africa for granted and them winning again doesn't feel like it upsets the status quo.
Oh and England are too shit to care about at the moment.
NB. lets see how Wales get on, they're pretty easy to despise under Gatland if they get to the pointy end of the tournament and you have to put up with their fans...

Here’s my prediction.
Scotland will beat Ireland. They’ll be up for this game, they’ll know them well from playing them every year, they won’t have the doubt that I’m sure they have vs the Boks…..
Problem will be they won’t get four tries and deny Ireland the bonus so they’ll finish third and get eliminated in the pools despite a 3-1 win/loss record.
It’s going to be a tragic day.

This is definitely a game where Scotland have seized Ireland’s traditional moniker of plucky underdogs.

Scotland are my second team, my wife is Irish. Let's just say I'm not preparing the spare room.
The only way Scotland win is if they get ahead early and Finn has one of those days were everything comes off. As for knocking Ireland out I know it's possible but technically so was Italy beating New Zealand.
I think it will be a hiding sadly.
