It’s almost upon us.

I’m heading to the Aviva on Saturday for the Irish game. Keen to see what the Farrell era brings. I like the squad he’s picked.

I hope it’s a great tournament and looking forward to the craic with you all.

I’m Scottish and I am not looking forward to it!

Finn is missing and if we don’t play at Murreyfield we have no chance, I just hope Ireland don’t put 50 on us which could be done easily with the team they have. On a brighter note I do think we will retain the Calcutta cup! x

Why won't Ireland be in the top half? We should beat Scotland, Italy, France (depending on which team they bring...as usual) and wins against Wales and England aren't complete off the charts fantasy...

I expected something a little different from them tbh but I suppose it’s not easy when you are always on the back foot rather than making the play to get you going forward

They’re better in the second half so far,

Yep just after I posts that they had a flash of inspiration

they just need a few more of those

Keep posting

We made tough old work getting the BP

A slowish start but a solid win

Set piece needs sharpening up

All in all a positive performance but we'll need to get out of second gear next week

We've got a lot more of that to come

We were solid and efficient

It was the right game to start us off

We'll be on a different level next week

Solid enough, but some scrum and line out errors

Our set piece is traditionally solid so a few first game wobblers can be overcome easilly enough

"It’s almost upon us.

I’m heading to the Aviva on Saturday for the Irish game. Keen to see what the Farrell era brings. I like the squad he’s picked.

I hope it’s a great tournament and looking forward to the craic with you all.

Good start, considering injuries it was never going to be easy. Bonus point and clean sheet is encouraging.

Every team has mistakes, none are immune. It's how you recover that shows the class.

Scotland could have been there for a week and they still wouldn't have scored. Reminded me very much of some of the Ospreys shit I've been subjected to this season. Clueless how to finish.

It will

England and Ireland away are always tough shouts

It will be very interesting to see how France perform tomorrow

I fancy them to be tricky customers this year and with Suaun Edwards as defence coach things are going to be a lot different to the France of last year

John Cooney is one.... far superior to Murray. He has had an absolute stormer of a season with Ulster both in the pro 14 and the ECC. He is one positive Ireland should be using heavilly to their advantage
