There's a reason why Canada are number two in the world.
I think they will likely be too strong for Scotland.

Canada come into today's game off the back of thumping wins against Fiji and Wales.
Fiji were swept aside 65-7 before they put 42 unanswered points past Wales.
Scotland will require a huge defensive effort today.

Nothing energises a tournament quite like a shock upset and Scotland believe they can provide the Women's Rugby World Cup with a bolt of electricity by toppling Canada today.
Second versus sixth in the world rankings does not immediately leap off the page as your typical David v Goliath affair, but the truth is the gap between these sides is far greater than those four ranking spots represent.
Alongside tournament favourites England, New Zealand and – when the mood captures them – France, Canada are operating at the top table of the women's game, but the underdogs believe they can bridge the gap
"We're going into this weekend like, 'why the hell not have a go at them?'," said prop Lisa Cockburn.
"We know Canada have a really good set-up and they've been playing really well. They're very skilled, they're very fast and they will throw the kitchen sink at us.
"We've done loads of analysis on them, we've got a really good game plan and the last few weeks our game plan has worked. It's been tailored to each game.
"So, I'm really optimistic and I think, 'why not cause a bit of upheaval in the World Cup, and maybe upset a few people?'"

Lana Skeldon returns for Scotland
Scotland have made two changes to their front row from the side who beat Fiji last weekend, with hooker Lana Skeldon and tighthead Lisa Cockburn starting.
Elis Martin drops to the bench while Elliann Clarke misses out. Cockburn replaced Clarke during last weekend's win against Fiji.
Lock Sarah Bonar will win her 50th cap, while Jade Konkel returns to the squad to take her place on a 6-2 bench.

Replacements: <\/i>Boag, Kassil, DeMerchant, Royer, O'Donnell, Crossley, Apps, Seumanutafa.
Scotland: <\/b>Rollie, Lloyd, Orr, Thomson, McGhie, Nelson, Brebner-Holden; Bartlett, Skeldon, Cockburn, Wassell, Bonar, Malcolm, McLachlan, Gallagher.
Replacements: <\/i>Martin, Young, Poolman, Konkel, Donaldson, Stewart, Mattinson, Wills.
Canada v Scotland (12:00)<\/span>
Morning all.
The Pool B winners will be decided in Exeter as Canada and Scotland put their unbeaten records on the line.
Both sides are already guaranteed a quarter-final spot, but the victors will likely avoid tournament hosts and favourites England in the last eight.
All to play for then – kick-off is half-an-hour away…
