joins england in the knockouts. the friday night match in france sees the all blacks take on italy in lyon. scotland are the only home nation involved this weekend, and they'll be expected to beat romania on saturday. they've made 13 changes to the side that thrashed tonga last week, but scotland will still need a bonus point victory, which will force them in to contention ahead of their must—win final pool fixture against ireland a week later. i think there's always pressure or expectation when you play for scotland. you're know going to have to play your best rugby, that's what that jersey demands of you. it will be a different game than what most of these players are used to, so the important thing is focusing on each moment and us playing as a team, us doing the work off the ball, the effort and the physicality, getting that right.
