England team to face Scotland is looking very strong and stable with only change being Nathan Hughes coming in for the injured Sam Simmonds and Joe Marler on the bench after doing “Time”. I am looking forward to a very hostile Murrayfield and counting on the England forwards to soften up the Scotland pack, if we can achieve dominance upfront, which on paper we should, then an England victory is predicted. But beware of the “auld ” enemy, if they get their tails up then a tough afternoon is in store as they have a back line capable of causing some serious damage! We have had one weekend package come back for this game based at the luxurious Principal Hotel, if interested email sales@vultd.co.uk See you up there for a beer or two!
