Only Scottish posters picking Scotland is a reflection on our chances right enough.
And are there two g’s in Bugger Off?

I don't really understand why anyone's picking England. Scotland are 4 in a row against us and haven't lost at Twickenham since 2017.

Meanwhile, England have demonstrated an ability to keep things close, but consistently lose against tier 1 nations at the moment. Probably are capable of a narrow win, but it doesn't seem especially likely.

Not sure how that is relevant to England playing at home v France this weekend.

Wales by 2
France by 27
Scotland by 11 (only as they will leading by 4 in to the last min and there is an interception by Kinghorn who goes under the posts)

To be honest these may be more results I would like to happen rather than remotely near what will happen
