In preparation for the Wallabies’ match against Scotland this weekend, I had a chat with Brett McKay and Jamie Lyall from Planet Rugby and The Scottish Rugby Blog.

The show was recorded before we knew Matt Toomua was out injured, but features discussion on:

• The further improvements made by the Wallabies in the match against Ireland;

• The red card and suspension for Tevita Kuridrani;

• The late night and suspensions for the Wallaby players;

• Who should play #13 for the Wallabies this week – a good prediction from Brett on Christian Lealiifano;

• Why the Wallabies’ scrum improved last week;

• Scotland’s form over their last two matches;

• The players out for Scotland and what we can expect from them this week.
