Pothunter Sep 2023 9:56pm, 23 Sep 2023 8,262 posts	0 Pothunter SA have got things to work on after that. Too many handling errors and need to be better at retaining possession at the breakdown. Also need a reliable goal kicker. France in the quarters will be tough, but without DuPont France are weaker. Ireland were superb in the ruck. I’d like to see how many times they turned it over. Aki superb in midfield. Commentators still trying to big up Ireland v Scotland but on that performance Scotland have no chance.

TBF there are not enough tier 1 nation's to make sure the pools are close when they're drawn randomly. Really is only England who have banana skins rather than jeopardy.
Badger Sep 2023 10:52pm, 23 Sep 2023 16,559 posts	0 Badger You’re ranked 6th in the world and ranked highest in your group. I doubt you’d be as sanguine in Scotland’s position. Draw was too early.
