From this article: I would think that the Scots can't be surprised by the lack of Scottish on the team? I think I would have to go with the latter prediction...

From this article:

The Test choice has enraged the Welsh, frustrated the Irish, and has seemingly stunned the Scots into silence. Only the English are happy - and then only some of them.

I would think that the Scots can't be surprised by the lack of Scottish on the team?

No matter how the powers of rugby have shifted since November 2003, all the omens are there for a Lions win. But it won't be pretty - as the arch Lion-baiter Laurie Mains put it, "whatever the Lions' score, it will be divisible by three".

Prediction: Make no mistake - the tourists are hungry for this, and are ready to slip into first gear. New Zealand to be caught cold as tourists spring a surprise or two. Lions by a whisker.

sportingodds.com prediction: New Zealand by nine points.

I think I would have to go with the latter prediction...
