Re: The Official Scottish Rugby Thread

Anyone else think that Healy has a touch of the Franco Begbie's about him with that ‘tache?

Re: So, coronavirus...

Well, do you have a reason why these "Large studies" are apparently being suppressed? In view of the damage that lockdown does to the economy, education, businesses and mental health, one would think that any "Large Study" which showed that lockdowns were unnecessary would be we...

Re: So, coronavirus...

Not what I’ve heard from my parents and MIL who are more than happy. Probably depends partly on political persuasion I would imagine. Can’t agree with over-promised and under-delivered as, despite a slow start, we’re well on track to over-deliver on projected vaccination totals by mid Feb. My paren...

Re: So, coronavirus...

This seems to be a common thing. Apparently Governments are keen to suppress studies that show the virus as no more dangerous than the common cold because they feel it's important to keep us in ineffectual lockdowns, heaven knows why. Presumably it's part of a plan to ruin the economy and allow Bil...

Re: So, coronavirus...

I don’t think you can draw any conclusion from it one way or the other. Which is true of much of the “data” we’ve been knee jerk reacting to in recent months. Whereas large studies that conclude, for example, that severity of lockdown has no impact on our outcomes get completely ignored. Large stud...

Re: So, coronavirus...

27,000 vaccinated in Scotland on Sunday. Big dro from day before (over 50k) but 18k more than the previous Sunday. My parents (70s) are finally getting theirs tomorrow. Their peer group have been unimpressed by Nicola's performance on this, over promised and under delivered. Not what I’ve heard fro...

Re: The Official Scottish Rugby Thread

That should be much less of an issue now, it's not an attitude I associate with Glasgow, certainly not with Exeter or Saracens, Finn is Finn. The Embra players in the side, Sutherland, Cherry, Ritchie, Watson - they are all hard-bitten grafters, vdM could probably still look for more work but he ca...

Re: The Official Scottish Rugby Thread

This is the next psychological issue to get past. Lazy performances when overconfident.

Re: The Official Scottish Rugby Thread

Morning all, so that was quite something yesterday wasn’t it? Sod’s law that we finally do it with nobody in the stadium!

I was in the Toony out camp, happy to eat my words on that front.
