Ireland A v Scotland A

Ireland A v Scotland A

Just a quick preview before this game kicks off (available on RTE.ie or BBC Northern Ireland online if your interested).

Two strong squads for both teams. Blair, Danelli, Murray for Scotland and Horan, Humphreys and a great back row for Ireland.

Scotland A have sprung a suprise before whacking the Ireland A's last year but I'm going to have to side with Ireland A. I'm refusing to call them there new stupid name however. The handicap of -6 is about right and I could see Ireland sneaking it as they have the advantage of playing a game together last week.

However on inspection of the odds a cracking bet for a team who held possession well last week and only lost out by rusty errors and some wierd selections the Ireland/Ireland halftime/fulltime result looks good.

Recommendation: Ireland/Ireland HT/FT at evens for 2pts with William Hill. WON
