The Rugby World Cup’s closest thing to a group of death features Scotland facing a huge task pitched alongside Ireland and South Africa

The pool of death. Ordered by current world ranking:

  1. Ireland
  2. South Africa
  3. Scotland
  4. Tonga
  5. Romania

As a Scot I feel I’ve been done dirty. Can’t see us escaping the group, but all 3 games at the top will be tasty to watch for sure. Anyone brave enough to call Ireland vs South Africa yet?
