Friday night rugby, with France vs Argentina to kick off things. Then Sat is Ire vs Fiji, Wal vs SA, and Ita vs NZ. Sun is Sco vs Aus, and Eng vs Japan

Been a great 4 weeks, lets hope for some great matches again! Game of the weekend looks to be Scotland vs Australia, and guess who's going?

I think that's a good sign that expectations are changing. From an outsider looking in with a historic view of Scottish rugby performances i'd mark this Autumn as a B+/A-, because the wins against lesser teams were pretty dominant wins and there's not many teams that can push the top 4 (SA, Ire, Fra, NZ) at the moment.

Well that's what we have to do in February: earn that A+. Last weekend is vs France. Ireland are at Murrayfield this year. We have Italy at home first round. This tournament writes itself after Christmas!
