We won't be seeing a repeat of last time. I expect an improved Scotland from round 1 but Kiwis to win comfortably without leaving 2nd gear.

NZ shouldn't be too concerned about this one.

 

[Rhyno]

NZ by 50

 

[This Year?]

NZ will win and be looking more at their combinations and wrapping their stars in cotton wool. No pun intended.

 

[whall15]

So they're using a Kiwi ref for the Kiwi game and an English ref for the England game...

That's so the players can understand what they're saying .

No pun - just a weird metaphor.

 

[parrawentyfan]

Nice of them to play just the start of the Scottish anthem.. or is that normal?

Loved hearing the players sing it solo though

 

[Diesel]

The throat slitting haka is the best

 

[veggiepatch1959]

Excellent set by the Scoots.

 

[_snafu_]

In zid derping it up.

 

[veggiepatch1959]

Very quiet here.

Are all those diehard LU Rugby League fans watching reruns of Family Food Fight?

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

Johnson didnt put the foot down...has he lost his gas

 

[Burns]

Shame Scotland couldn’t have converted that early pressure

 

[JasonE]

When you see soft tries like that, I reckon the kiwis could score a try per minute.

 

[parrawentyfan]

Why is the NZ referee doing the NZ game?

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

Clee - na - cal

 

[Burns]

Sigh.

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

Why is the NZ referee doing the NZ game?

Copying Australias last dozen games. First time I think for kiwis.
