Wonder how the Wallabies will go with so many internally suspended players (6), without Kuridrani who was suspended for a dangerous tackle and with Matt Toomua out injured.
Still recon the Wallabies will win, not sure by how much though.
One hour till kick off… GO SCOTLAND!
Gentle breeze in Edinburgh a few clouds quite cold with temperature already down to 3C, may become a little murky in the second half but should be a dry one. Scotland can win this one, only hassle I think is the lack of a ‘fetcher’ in the squad this is where Australia with Hooper can get an advantage and slow down Scotland ball and give their backs a little more time to close the gap in defence, Scotland should have gone with Barclay if not starting at least on the bench with Low covering loose forward as well or if needed lock.
Yeahhhhh Goooooooooo Scotland!
Hehehe
Nice to see Andy Robinson back at Murrayfield for prematch interviews

Flower of Scotland at Murrayfield SPINE TINGLING STUFF, GOOO SCOTLAND!
Ireland’s Anthem also done and dusted
NO 12 Duncan Taylor had a nightmare last week but he has been in good form for Saracens so am really hoping he can show what he is made of tonight!
Sad to see Joe Ansbro walking off the field in his suit pity he had to retire BUT at least after that horrendous neck injury he is walking, good man Joe.
Game ON!
Kick-off by the Wallabies!
Calm down Hamilton, all that after Scotland loose the ball they should have secured in the loose
Wallabies penalty…
Wallabies immediately showed they want to run everything.
Shot at goal.
Christian Lealiifano slots it.

@ grootblousmile:
Helloooooo!
A Scottish win would be good. I don’t mind that at all,Scots have always been my favorite team in the UK…. though I wish that Jim Hamilton gets moered good and solid for a change, a really meanie that one, he always seems to be playing with bad intentions.
Scotland penalty… easy one at goal, in front on the 22
Wallabies 3 / 3 Scotland, as Greig Laidlaw slots the penalty
