GAD Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, Detournement said: Sam J gets the nod possibly due to the weather. Gilchrist has been excellent for Scotland recently so him over Cummings is fair enough. Schoeman will hopefully come on and go ballistic for 30 minutes. Yeah, I think the weather and fitness probably swung it for Johnson. Funny how we've got the big, solid, straight running centre pairing up against the more skillful but slightly suspect in defence English centres. Wouldn't have seen that coming a few years ago. Dombrant v Bradbury in the second half could be good. Also, he's very committed to this Kinghorn at 10 thing. You'd think Redpath and Kinghorn on the bench would give the maximum flexibility.

peasy23 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Brian Moore tweeted earlier that he started his BBC commentary career on a Calcutta Cup match, and Saturday's match will be his last BBC commentary. He's the best pundit they have imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very England centric and arrogant. He then became more rounded and balanced and the best co-commentator. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the one hand, Wales getting battered would be delightful, on the other, it's Ireland... I would take a Wales gubbing from anyone these days. Last year they were the jammiest champions ever and behaved like total fucking dicks over it. Also their fans, after a decade of wanking on about "spirit of the lions" and how they would support a Lion's team with no Welsh players made total c***s of themselves in the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF, I think him nailing the conversion from the touchline has given a false idea of how wild the wind is, especially at that end with the lower stand causing chaos similar to the East stand at Murrayfield. Still funny though, especially with Harrison hyping up the record each time! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
