Will this be a stellar week for Scottish rugby?

Scotland the new powerhouse of World Rugby? maybe.

With the Jocks rolling Fiji in the Rugby League World Cup the attention now turns to the Union players who will run out at Murrayfield this weekend against a experimental All Blacks line up.

It may be the Scots first outing of the season and it may turn out to be their best as they are more than a warm chance of an upset. New Zealand had a sapping and in parts unimpressive win over The Wallabies last week.

Scotland might not be the easy beats they are made out to be.

All Blacks for the grand slam and a Haka in the garage?

November 3, 2008 · 1 Comment

On form New Zealand have just beaten the second best team in the world in Hong Kong. They also beat them with an experimental backline.

There is no one capable of halting them on their tour to the UK and if anyone gets within 15 points of them I will be amazed.

Off on a slightly different tangent, I wonder whether we will see a repeat of the debacle in Cardiff a few years back where the All Blacks threw their toys out of the pram and did their Haka in the garage of the Millenium Stadium?

Why did they? because they thought that they were more important than the National anthem of their host nation. Arrogant beyond belief.
