Its all the words I can say to be honest.Erasmus said: Although an Irish and Munster rugby hero and a great friend of ours, this time its about a husband, father, son and brother and a fallen friend. Let us not forget that.The director of rugby said Thomond held a special place in Axel Foleys heart.As difficult as it will be to play the next game no matter the time the opposition or the venue, we have an opportunity to play there this Saturday. Thats something thats hugely important to all of us, he said.He would never want us to say that the game is secondary, its just not the man he was, but it will be. Its all about Anthony, now, and this weekend and will be for a long time.OMahony added: The amount that we have lost now that he has gone is incredible -- the rugby knowledge and brain, the man and the friend and coach and brother that we have lost. Its mad.Glasgow coach Gregor Townsend said: It has been a tough week for world rugby. You saw the reaction from all over the world, not just in rugby but in sport.It is such a loss for our game, a huge loss for Munster rugby so our thoughts go with them and Anthonys family.We played against each other a number of times. I think we played each other in the schoolboy teams a long time ago, the Munster games and Ireland.He was aggressive and intelligent too. A really good modern number eight with a great ball-carrying side to his game.I was looking forward to catching up with him. He was always very good after games whether Munster won or we won. As I got to know him more as coaches he would always come up and chat with you and be honest and share what was going on in his world as a coach. Chicago Cubs Store .

Saturday, kick-off: 14:30MurrayfieldRevenge will be on the minds of the majority of Scotland fans as they make their way to Murrayfield on Saturday afternoon. Australias visit to Edinburgh this weekend represents the first time the two sides have faced each other since their controversial Rugby World Cup quarterfinal showdown last year. On that occasion, Scotland came within seconds of reaching the last four, before a debatable late penalty aided the Wallabies passage. But with only seven survivors from that game in the starting XV, Vern Cotter will hope his side do get too distracted by the task of righting their perceived wrong. Not least because Australia arrive at Murrayfield on the back of an impressive win over Wales and with a northern hemisphere clean sweep on their minds. The 32-8 win in Cardiff last Saturday was built on a ruthless start, and a peerless performance from fly-half Bernard Foley. If their hosts take their eye off the task at hand they risk giving themselves too much to do.Team news Hooker Ross Ford will win his 100th cap, becoming only the third Scotsman to do so. Ford is joined in Vern Cotters squad by four players making their first Test start. Centre Huw Jones, back row Hamish Watson, and front-rows Zander Fagerson and Allan Dell all face the Wallabies.Australia have been boosted by the inclusion of flanker David Pocock, who was forced off at half-time of the win against Wales last weekend with a concussion. He takes his place in an unchanged back row, with Dean Mumm on the replacements bench and Scott Fardy dropped from the 23. Scrum-half Will Genia starts alongside Foley having only been released by Stade Francais after the Wales game.Scotland: Hogg, Maitland, Jones, Dunbar, Visser, Russell, Laidlaw (captain); Dell, Ford, Fagerson, R. Gray, J. Gray, Barclay, Watson, WilsonReplacements:?Brown, Reid, Low, Gilcchrist, Hardie, Price, Horne, HughesAustralia:?Folau, Haylett-Petty, Kuridrani, Hodge, Speight, Foley, Genia; Sio, Moore (captain), Kepu, Arnold, Coleman, Pocock, Hooper, TimaniReplacements:?Latu, Robertson, Alaalatoa, Simmons, Skelton, Mumm, Phipps, CooperKey head-to-head The Wallabies win over Wales was built in part on their devastating dominance of the breakdown.dddddddddddd. It is sure to be a key battleground again in Edinburgh, and therefore, Cotters decision to put Hamish Watson in direct competition with Michael Hooper does seem an interesting one. Hooper was all energy in Cardiff, beating four defenders in attack while putting in 12 tackles in defence. On his first Test start, Watson will need to do what Wales couldnt and keep the Wallabies back row in check.Key stats *Scotlands last two wins against Australia (2009 and 2012) have come without scoring a try.*The 34 points Scotland scored against the Wallabies in their 2015 World Cup quarterfinal is the biggest tally they have ever managed against Australia.*Australias biggest win over Scotland in Edinburgh came in November 2006, when they won 44-15.Prediction Scotland will certainly be fired up to right the wrongs of last year, but will that be enough? We still do not know what affect Cotters impending departure has had on the squad, and as was proven in Cardiff last weekend, the Wallabies will punish ruthlessly any slip in concentration. Although it remains to be seen exactly what shape David Pocock is in, Australia are arguably stronger than against Wales, and will have the benefit of another week working together. It may not be quite as comfortable as last weekend, but the Wallabies should get the victory that keeps their Grand Slam hopes alive. ' ' '
