Scotland impressed me during the recent tests and appear to have a more expansive side to their game and are my dark horse side for the comp.
Wales ffs seem to be in a worse place than prior to the last world cup. The time has come for these new faces, younger players to stand up and make a statement. I know England have their injury problems but I think they are easier to resolve due to a bigger catchment of players. For Wales to loose the best outside centre in JD and then Webb I think will be to mush of a hurdle for us.
Ireland , England, and the Scotts will be in the mix for it, the French ? what team turns up and Wales and Italy playing for the porridge stirrer.
Ps hi Leighton hope you're well.
