England v. Scotland (Twickenham)
 |
| The Calcutta cup contested every year by these 2 teams...ridiculous lookin yoke |
Scotland have made several changes again due to Robinson running out of ideas. Scotland will look for their first win in the championship when they take on England on Sunday. Simon Danielli, Joe Ansbro and Rory Lawson come into the backline at the expense of Nikki Walker, Nick de Hopeless (Luca) and Mike "whats the big deal about anyway?" Blair. The other change sees Nathan Hines in the backrow with Kelly Brown switching to 8 for the injured John Beatie.
The rugby romantics out there (and there are quite a few) will be hedging their bets on a Scotland win here. There is a belief out there that Scotland can upset the apple cart just like they have done on previous occasions. I don't share the same strange optimism however. Scotland have been 3 pretty different shades of shit in the last 3 outings. Compare this with England and well the results speak for themselves. 3 loses v. 3 wins. That my friends is the reality of the situation. England are on their way to the Aviva in a weeks time for the big one. This is one apple cart firmly placed on the road to glory, whatever about Ireland upsetting it, Scotland certainly won't.
