It's a big weekend of rugby! With games all day long. Let's have a look at a preview of what's to come! Try not to get too excited though.


Samoa vs Fiji - Offloads, offloads everywhere! 

Samoa and Fiji will be showing their love of open play and will be looking to offload at any given chance. Both teams are well renowned for their silky skills. However, one side more so than the other. I'll leave it up to you to decide. (It's totally Fiji) 

Tonga vs Georgia - Brute force!

Both sides here are known for providing some big slabs of meat to the game. However, I think Tonga has a more open set of backs that will look to play the ball more. Tipping Tonga here.

No, i'm not drunk.

Scotland vs Japan - Tight game

This one could go either way. Both teams can play out of their skin but they both struggle with consistency. However, I think Japan might have a chance to pull something out of the bag, even though the are missing a few key players, they still have some talent scattered around the field.

All Blacks vs Wales - Wales...trying  

Wales will look to show the rugby world they they can compete with the best. And by that, I literally mean, the best. All Blacks on the other hand will simply look to play their natural, winning style.

England vs Australia - Australia trying to not lose again

Australia don't want to lose to England again. That would just be embarrassing. But they have a lot of hard work, as Eddie Jones's side has shown, they're up for anything they Wallabies are willing to throw at them.

Springboks vs Ireland - REDEMTION! 

After last weeks poor performance, the Springboks will be looking to redeem themselves come game time. Ireland need to be cautious here. The Irish just need to stay as discipline  that they were last weekend and they stand a good chance of taking it. They're also clear favourites which might prove to be a curse. Only time will tell.


Man, this is going to be a good weekend.
