Suspect it may be the other way! We are on the B team though, so here's hoping for a closer match

"We want a hundred" coming from our stand. Grim watching for Eagles fans

Was it down in players? We saw a much better match earlier this year!

Can't quite believe how Ireland crumbled that second half. We tend to finish well last quarter at least? Oh dear we're in trouble next week!

On the flip side, the ABs were awful for 40 minutes, ok for 20 and then good for the last 20. Scotland at home scares me.
