[QUOTE="Peat, post: 836039, member: 42330"] Those were about the sum of them I'm afraid :lol: I find both teams pretty hard to read these days as there's a lot of quality and a lot of inconsistency. Neither are teams who I trust to hold onto a lead. I'd bet on the French because all that power could be pretty decisive and because home advantage matters but it wouldn't surprise me if they had most of the match but Scotland took more chances. I guess it would surprise me if Scotland had more of the match, but as long as it stays out of the scrum and Barclay has a big day at the breakdown, why not? Imagine the Scottish team will look to either play it very quick or kick into space/for chasers. French will want to slow the ball down and get a power game happening. France really want to disrupt the line out and the breakdown as much as possible to stop that. But yeah, I'm betting on the home side. [/QUOTE]
