Yup. I think only Z Fagerson, Russell, DvdM and Tuipolotou are pretty much guaranteed to tour. The rest will need the team to do well in the 6N. And Jones is say. I’d say Kinghorn is fairly nailed on as well I'm not sure Jones is as appreciated as he should be. Kinghorn's a fair shout, agreed. I th...

Quite an awful social media reaction from a lot of the Welsh fans. A real sense of entitlement on display, shouting about how the players were an embarrassment and disgrace. It's quite clear that a lot of them are nowhere near international standard but it is what it is and I thought they fronted up...

I think we will always have to accept that with the resources we have we will only ever be 5th or 6th in the world. At the moment I think we are 5th as I think we would likely beat England and Argentina more than they would beat us. I think progress would be for us to get a few wins against France, ...

It's great that we can beat Australia well, in a game that I never really felt we were going to lose, but what a horrifically frustrating performance. They only really got their shit together in attack for 15 minutes which was luckily enough to put the game beyond doubt, but the amount of unforced e...

How was that not held up over the line. He allowed them minutes to retrieve it.

That line out sums up the game.

Get on with it. It's a try.

Far better to do it while beating a T1 side, mind

A bit shocked how poor Australia have been.

Absolutely reformed player. A nailed on Lion.

Amazing how easy the game is when you suddenly start throwing the ball straight and stop dropping it.

This gets worse. Even by our standards this must be one of the most inaccurate performances in years.

You can brace for impact if someone is running straight at you without the ball He quite clearly raises his shoulder though. Ever so slightly turns so that contact is made with his upper arm and away from his head. It's not a tackle situation, he is the vulnerable player with someone sprinting hard...

He quite clearly raises his shoulder though.

This could be a red for multiple reasons.

Maybe not as bad as first seen. It's still surely a high shoulder charge, bracing himself or not.

FFS, this is brutal. Constant unforced errors.

About time he pinged Skelton

Exceptionally tough watch that I’m quite enjoying it I can see the argument it is compelling if you’re supporting one of the teams involved, as a lot of England games have been recently. But as a spectacle you’ve got Oz either kicking it either two phases or being turned over, and Scotland going th...

It’s not a ploy
I know but as soon as Kinghorn tried to power through the tackle rather than go down you knew the outcome. They should too.
Hmm, think that’s a bit harsh

Possible, but you expect pros to react to these outcomes better than we would.

My understanding is that it's about the ball being playable, as neither ball has been available it's turned over. Once he blew the first one they should have learned their lesson but hey, it's Scotland. It’s not a ploy I know but as soon as Kinghorn tried to power through the tackle rather than go ...

Sums up our game that we haven't had a scrum yet.

We have looked very pedestrian in attack this autumn.

Error strewn so far from us.

Wouldn't have bet on Graham getting a maul turnover.

Scotland by 10......

The weather is beautiful. Scotland by 10.

"Flanker in the front row". What the fuck is he talking about. I've watched it again and nothing like that to be seen.

They've actually been doing okay for the last 20 minutes.

Scrum penalties are just utter nonsense in a game like this.

Pay for TNT and have to listen to this giberish. To be fair it's better than Jiffy.

Agree. At the moment, Jones is possibly the standout centre after the Irish.
Whit?! Best centre on the planet at the moment

Not sure about that. Still liable to the odd brain fart in attack and defence.

I don’t view that as exactly the same as it’s not a usage of our natural resources in the same way. Once construction is completed for energy facilities, it’s substantially rent sitting for 25 years, plus maintenance. Diageo have to continuously spend money to get the resources required to operate ...

Bottled it. 2 penalties in quick succession after a card fir repeated penalties.

Murrayfield crowd booing the try getting chalked off for the most obvious forward pass of the match. FFS

The more you see the Beaham croc roll last night the more annoyed you get. He not only croc rolls but actually deliberately attacks the Argentinian's supporting knee.

I'd tend to agree, if a player is sent off for contact with the head, then the player on the receiving end should be under HIA protocols. I think we should always err on the side of caution on this. If this is stringently enforced, it might also cut down on the level of simulation we are seeing. Wi...

I didn't mention stealing. I'd like a better understanding of how much Scotland gets out of it. Saying they're taxed on the profits doesn't cut it I'm afraid. How are the new hydro schemes returninng profits to the local area? Is the offshore wind licensing enough? Should a percentage of the revenu...

I find this argument wierd, it like claming a lorry full of Whisky (and the road its travelling on) crossing at Berwick 'has no benefit to Scotland' ...thats not how the economy works. The private capitial that builds that power generation is doing so on the basis it can sell it to the national gri...

You did notice his swollen lip yeah? Fuck sake, what do you lot not understand about the point. Yes we all noticed the swollen lip and yes there was obviously a head knock which was deemed sufficiently dangerous for a player to be carded, which is why he should have had an HIA. It would appear that...
