1940: "I fancy Scotland to win by 50 odd points to 10 but am more interested in what sort of side they will put out against the AB's."
BigAlCrash, via 606 "I'm sure Scotland will win, but i can see it being like a lot of the games recently and winning by only 5-15 points."
chrisp2412, via 606 1930: Just a quick run through the team news for anyone who may have missed out. Scotland have Chris Paterson on the wing and Gavin Kerr replaces the injured Allan Jacobsen at prop. Other changes in the pack see Ross Ford and Jim Hamilton replace Scott Lawson and Scott Murray at hooker and lock respectively. Romania, who were far from disgraced as they went down 24-18 to Italy in their opening Pool C match, are unchanged. Pre-match: Last time I checked Edinburgh wasn't in France, but such are the vaguaries of international sporting politics that two of Scotland's pool games are being played at Murrayfield rather than in France. Just so the Scots can't be accused of having home advantage, however, Romania won the toss to be the nominal home team for the game, getting the home dressing room and the right to choose shirt colours. They have chosen blue, so Scotland will wear their unfamiliar white second strip. First psychological blow landed by Romania?
