6N starting team

[OptimisticJock]

Scotland 10/1 must be the best odds I've seen as an adult.

Last time I checked, the bookies were all over the place for the Welsh game. Some making us favourites, some making the Welsh favourites.

He must mean to win the 6N. If the bookies are correct we will finish 3rd behind England and Ireland.

If we're 10/1 to beat the Welsh then I'd plough a small fortune into that!

Aye. Sorry, it was a long shift.

[hugh_woatmeigh]

It's not evidence of course but i don't see Dunbar or Turner amongst the group that gathered last night. Taylor is there, however. Not everybody would have been captured in video or photograph however... but almost all the others are accounted for.

Interesting to see Blair and Grant there - coaching development of some kind?

Blair is a part of the set up as skills coach iirc.

Roddy might be doing breakdown work

[Big D]

Ok, 23 for Wales:
Reid
Rambo
Welsh
Toolis
J Gray
Barclay
Watson
CdP - Wilson isn't fit.

Price
Russell
Seymour
Dunbar/Taylor
Jones
Maitland
Hogg

Turner/Lawson
Bhatti
Rae
Gilchrist/R Gray - really lacking match sharpness
Hamilton
Laidlaw
Horne
King Blairhorn

Team almost picks itself. No.8 will.be debated and maybe wing too.

[Cameo]

I think I'd be suprised if Kinghorn is on the bench. I'd also not be suprised if Horne started. Otherwise I can't see too much controversial

Just seen this. Actually, I was just jumping from tournament to match odds with no contextualisation. Skybet still have wales as favourites, handicap is giving us 2 points.

[General Zod]

Agree with Big D’s team, although I think R Gray and Lawson will be named on the bench.

If Taylor and Dunbar fit, I still think King Blairhorn will make the bench, as Horne can cover centre/ fly-half, and Blairhorn (what is his real name again?) covers back 3 and, at something of a push at the moment, 10.

Gray has a calf injury. May be minor but couple that with his lack of games due to his back injury I'd prefer he got a couple of 60-80min games under his belt prior to coming back in. But I can see the logic to putting him in.

Just saw Turner injured so I'd agree about Lawson.

Is that fresh? He's been on the bench for the last couple of Toulouse games, no?

[OptimisticJock]

Aye. Missing the next couple of days of training.

Wasn't involved at weekend.

SRU reporting he's missing this 3 day meet.

So now thinking about it. Gray has never been involved in a GT game planned Scotland squad and Rambo and the locks involved in the AIs had a great line out. All together with Gray only having a couple of games back before this calf problem I wouldn't pick him v Wales.

You're quite right. I could have sworn he was on the bench ahead of their last game. I've just had a look now and Toulouse only have a 7 man bench. Who knows what happened.

So our second and third choice hookers are EinE's shorter brothers.

[General Zod]

I’d also like to post that it wouldn’t surprise me if McGuigan starts over Maitland. Just a a feeling.

[Mikey Brown]

I feel like Lee Jones is still a better fit for a backline that already has plenty of pace and flair.

My big worry is 12. Taylor and Dunbar haven’t played all that much have they? Are either fully fit? Is Horne too lofhtweight?

That wrong slot is really open. Wouldn't surprise me if 1 of 4 play there.

[whatisthejava]

Gray and Dunbar currently injured , calf and concussion respectively.

[ARM]

Dan Biggar's oot for the first three matches.

Anscombe, Patchell or Williams. I think Patchell is a great player but no Tests at 10. Williams has hardly played for Glaws.

All very good players but Biggar is exactly the kind of fly half (behind a dominant pack) that scares me. This is good news for us.

[Big D]

There's their excuse. It will be conveniently forgotten we are down 3 international LHs, 3 international hookers and 3 international THs (even if one is Berghan).

I still back our likely starting front row bit it's mental to be down 9 international front row options.

Scotland 10/1 must be the best odds I've seen as an adult.

Got 14-1 for the 6nations on my Mrs phone at half time of the All Blacks match and 50-1 for the World Cup.

The sweetest money will be the fiver that has spent most of the last ten years in my mate Jones' pocket but is currently in mine. Smug twat (in a friendly way). Living in England I got my Aunt to send down some Scottish money to piss him off, it is mostly selotape now.....
