The hubris is starting to get to me, lads.
I have faith in the team to get the job done, but this is rugby and nothing is certain.
A couple of shit scrums and we're fucked there as far as Poite is concerned, and our lineout is not the powerhouse it used to be - Parling is a good operator and Simmons will need to have his shit together to get the ascendancy.
We get the basics right, and trust our defence, and we'll get there. I don't care if we win 3-0 except it will give England a bonus point. So then, I'm happy to win 8-0.
Personally I hope we fucking smash them out of the World Cup 50-3 so that they can all sit around crying over videos of Martin Johnson TWELVE FUCKING YEARS AGO.
Stay strong Pfitzy, but I must confess to finding myself in the same boat as you. If we try and play safe, which I think we will, I have a bad feeling that we are going to get smacked. I have tried to imagine a loss to prepare myself emotionally and I don't like it one bit.
