Ok, now the teams are out (well England), I'm revising my estimates:

Scotland v England - Scotland by 10 - potentially followed by a regime change.

Some of the quotes from the Beeb:

"It is not a reflection at all on how Lewis has played, it is more of a reflection on the strength and depth of the players we have in the squad" (Johnson)


Another quote from the Manual of Coaching, lesson 101

"Johnson said: "It was probably the toughest selection we've had, not because we lost the last game but because the squad we have now, if we lose someone, we have someone in that position who can come in and we wouldn't miss a beat."


"Attack coach Brian Smith said he hoped for England to be "more clinical" against Scotland. "I'm satisfied we are making progress but not with the outcome," said Smith."


Aarrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhh FFS

EDIT: so glad I got that off my chest...
