Nervous about this one, but then always am.Scots have had a run of poor form but have changed their coaches and look to be coming out fighting,or is it just fighting talk? Still not entirely convinced about the win over NZ because i reckon they were suffering the effects of noro virus and they are the kind of team that never makes excuses.Still i reckon England should win .As for the other matches i take Ireland over wales and France over Italy

It,s a big ask to beat England at Twickers. But Scotland have nothing to lose as they are huge outsiders. I just hope for the usual "played way above expectations" and were so near but so far ! you know what I mean

Wales V Ireland is hard to call. If Ireland win then with England and France at home it could be a good tournament for them. I would consider them major under-achievers, in the last decade they should have won a lot more than a single Grand Slam.

I will live on my nerves for the first of tomorrow's games, it's too close to call, there are so many of Wales' first choice players injured. Hopefully Wales will just sneak it. Then I can sit down and enjoy the England v Scotland game, which I think England will win easily.

If Wales lose it's going to be a hard campaign for them with three games on the road. Could see the Dragons fighting for the wooden spoon.

You and me both, bud!!

I think Wales will win, but it'll be close - Biggar needs a big game and with the goal-kicking pressure off he should be OK. I'm disappointed Tipuric's not starting, but he could have a massive impact off the bench.

England should win comfortably, but Scott Johnson was great in an interview I saw earlier - he's full of confidence, and I'm sure the Scots will want to prove their Autumn performances are behind them - and a Calcutta Cup opener is just the game to make that point.

I've just got in from watching Cardiff Blues beat London Irish - had a couple of pints of Brains there, and a couple of nips of Penderyn after so I'm fully prepared for tomorrow.

Bring it on!!!!!

I dont think sooooo.  I have an uneasy feel about that game.As usual the game will be won upfront but Scotland came very close to beating England last year and i think with the  new coaching setup ,will be a better team than they have been of late so ,no, not easy at all.
If ireland get their act together I think they can go all the way, although France will be a tough proposition for them.Wales will be much better with Adam  Jones back looking trimmer, but it depends on whether they can put the disastrous AI results behind them

Howley on the Lions tour. Big mistake! Autumn internationals and this pile of crap !

Well I've eaten half of my hat. Fair play. Stiill don't rate Howley though!

Great game,thought Ireland were going to run away with it after an awful first half from Wales.

Great comeback though but just had too much to do.
