Welcome to the annual 'Will we beat the Jocks?' thread.

England Vs Scotland, BBC 1 16:45 Kick-off time.

Excited for this one!

My prediction is that whoever kicks, throws and chases the egg best will win. Myriad complex and unintelligible refereeing stuff aside.

Legalised thuggery for posh boys who spent too much time in the gym. Boring sport.
Just my opinion, though.

However, more concerned that we beat the Hornets. And feeling more anxious by the hour too.

Even when we are on the top of our game we struggle ar Murrayfield. We have often lost Grand Slams or Triple Crowns there when we have been blinding in previous games. After two really shit unimaginative performances I think we need to step it up big time

Narrow England win for me

Genuine question, do you actually understand the laws of the game? Makes a massive difference to the enjoyment. Most people I speak to who dismiss rugby haven’t got a clue what is going on and why

Yes, you have a homoerotic grapple in the mud and then retire to the bar where you down pint after pint singing bawdy songs with your trousers around your ankles.

Them’s the rules, yes?

Yeah, it’s an Octoberfest without the lederhosen with a bit of sport thrown in ( no 50 year old singers slapping their thighs during umpah songs though :wink:)

Sorry but that is absolute rubbish.

Rugby is very much a working class sport in Wales, West of England and New Zealand to name but three.

Nothing like a bit of ignorant stereotyping,....

They should make the rules simpler then, then more people might actually go to watch it, rather than there being literally thousands and thousands of empty seats at every single game apart from at the absolute elite level.

If ignorance is bliss you must be in paradise.
