    I expect the scots to win in cardiff this weekend
    they were good in rome and decent last week
    their centres were quality, their half backs have done ok and their back row has grown
    denton is under rated, their front 5 is solid, theyve done aussie a few times in recent years, the welsh havent. I think its scotlands time

    the welsh are a farce
    14 british lions and they couldnt get one oass to the wings
    their entire gameplan is 5 years out of date
    does gatland even realise the laws at tackle area now reward sides who keep the ball in hand....instead they stick to a kicking strategyr which isnt just stupid but the execution is appalling.
    their aerial kicking at twickenham was embarassing, they simply cant do an up and under?
    theyve been found out and they dont have the little genius shane wiliams to save them

    Not sure if you are playing devils advocate there or what but if the welsh are awful the scots are awful awful.

    Fully expect a welsh victory.

    No.

    Scotland have no chance.

    Wales by at least 12

    Don't think I could care less about this match, it is simply a time killer between Rome and Paris.

    Nevertheless with nothing on it it should be a fast paced open spectacle and I expect Wales to put it to the Scots as they will be hurting after their Six Nations performance this season.

    Something like Wales 38 - 20 Scotland

    crikey we wrote off the welsh too soon, they were wold class at times yesterday
    roberts was brilliant, webb was sharp at 9, warburton back to his best, gethin jenkins was immense, george north is a superstar (though he missed one shocking tackle)
    I think wales are a good side and simply a better team than france , who were a shambles
    but we are the best team in europe clearly now
    wales second
    england third
    france fourth

    Hang on, OP are you not the same person who was gushing over the Welsh a couple of weeks ago? Now they are an awful team with an out if date game plan? In the Ireland - Wales prediction thread you reckoned both teams were the top 2 in Europe?

    And now they suddenly have a gameplay give years out of date ! Despite that gameplay winning them. A slam and a championship on that period !

    Will go one of two ways I suspect. Wales will click and win by 20+, or they will complete their impression of Ireland 2013 and keep their worst for last.

    I don't want to sound like a prick but is this the official match thread or should a more thorough one be written up?

    As I'm going, I'll do one. Might as well put some thought into it!

    If it were in Murrayfield I'd say maybe, that being said they beat Ireland in Croke Park a few years back when it was completely unexpected.

    Denton isn't exactly under-rated he's simply playing his way back to his level of two years ago, his form in between had been awful.

    Wales by 12 for me.
