[Peej]

Irish are a pretty comprehensive unit, even if they are a bit unreliable away from home. This one is actually quite tough to call!

[Gloskarlos]

Could easily go either way, Irish missing Creevy and OHC, Glos missing Reid and Atkinson, but stand ins not too much of a drop in quality. Hoping Glos can continue this run of form, Irish will be buoyant after last weeks results. Ill stick my neck out and claim home advantage is worthy of a 7 point victory

Good match up this. Both sides in good form, both in the top 6 with a good chance of consolidating over the 6N period.
Home advantage might just tip it Glos way.

[twitchy]

Only 7-0 at h/t but it's been a fun game.

[Peej]

I think it's been dreadful. Irish in particular have been so poor.

Agreed. It looks like they've been on the piss before coming out to play. LI seem to have dropped one in three passes.
