If the Prem Cup matches are as one sided as the one last night they will all be shite. I always thought that the teams in this comp were made up with development players and "binjuice" squad members, Glaws were stacked with regulars whilst I only recognised 2 or 3 Bath names.
Think you've got the top 3 matches in the right order.

England Oz will be close I think.
Scotland SA has potential but I’m very unconvinced Scotland can go the distance up front.
Ireland NZ? Could be decent

Ireland will win. England will hammer Straya. Sefrica will grind out a dull and uninspiring win.

After 80 minutes I’ll still be waiting for the All Black loosies to compete at a breakdown and not be standing in the centres. Ireland will win the game through dominating the rucks and turnovers.

OK, as the first one it's winning so far but it was great stuff.
Woke up so got up and caught last quarter of Ire-USA Women.
20-10 Ireland with a last minute penalty, but US robbed of an earlier try as the officials didn't check with the TMO.

US team leaner than most, and rather dashing with the ball. Women's Rugby might be the future there rather than the Men's.

First big game over, and it's still the Ladies way in front.

Not sure if Scotland did anything particularly mindless, but you were right otherwise
It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

Flinging the ball around; trying left & right, & calling it thriving in chaos; looks mindless. Especially when there's just as good a chance of an opposition player picking off one of those passes, & flying in for an unopposed score; as there is of getting out of your half.

It's Rugby; not Roulette; & even most mug gamblers understand that Roulette is the Houses favorite game.

Dalton probably the only NZ forward who stood up today... they were owned by the Irish... absolutely no platform for the backs who played off scraps all day... so I put the blame squarely on Foster and Plumtree... we are still being bossed at the breakdown by more physical sides. I have never seen the All Blacks dominated at the breakdown as comprehensively as they were today... even worse than in the World Cup semi... is the pack under-powered or under-coached? Then again the breakdown involves the backs as well... so is it a technical issue, as it keeps happening?
