THE
WAIT IS OVER!
This weekend begins the long awaited Autumn
Internationals series. This year the home nations are being treated to the
likes of New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Argentina alongside the smaller
nations of Tsonga, Samoa and Fiji. With such strong performances in the Pro12
and the Aviva premiership there really is a fantastic crop of players to pick
from.
The
Demons Down South!
Although we can not rule out the visitors
in any game, with the recent Quad-Nations just over. The mighty powerhouses of
New Zealand and South Africa are never an easy team to face. Facts and
statistics though do not always prove true in rugby, with South Africa beating
New Zealand recently, and fielding this winning team against Ireland on
Saturday.
Can
Scotland Deliver?
Here are RugbyPlus
the most important game this weekend is definitely Scotland v Argentina. For
Scotland this is a fantastic opportunity to showcase what we have to offer
before the 2015
World Cup. After Grant Gilchrist was ruled out of the series after
fracturing his forearm in Edinburgh Rugby’s win over Lyon in the Challenge Cup.
But now the leadership passes to Greig Laidlaw, captaining this country for the
8th time.
RugbyPlus
wish Laidlaw, and the entire Scotland team, good luck for Saturday! Will you be
at Murrayfield? Lets all stand up for Scotland and proudly belt out “O Flower
of Scotland”.
