Good morning lemmy rugby fans! What a tasty weekend of rugby we have in store. Including the All Blacks vs England. England on 9 in a row, the ABs aiming for a grand slam tour. This one has classic written all over it!

We also have the interesting Wales vs Japan match, both struggling for form but hoping a new coach bounce makes a difference from the repeat fixture in the summer. And Scotland vs Argentina tomorrow which is crucial for world ranking positions, with both teams wanting that top pot position for the world cup.

As always, predictions, reactions, and shitposts all appreciated, and have a great weekend wherever you are :)

I wonder how much longer Prendergast needs to prove he’s the starting 10. I was surprised to see Crowley starting earlier this month because I thought Sam had clearly won the spot by now. Crowley is by no means a bad player but Prendergast’s kicking makes all the difference, as proven yesterday. Plus that disgusting behind the back pass last week… rootin for ya bud
