It only takes a moment for Russell to connect with VdM or Kinghorn to conjure up a try.

That is true, but yet again Scotland have let the opposition back into it and are leaking penalties. Mental frailty again

Like the way the ref is doing the rucks. Not just immediately blowing for pen every time.

Steyn is a fucking shambles in defence.

Disgracefully bad.

Awful from Scotland, brainless kicks from Kinghorn, scattered chase and nothing from Steyn

Hopefully Italy can keep this up.
Great for the 6N if Italy beat Scotland and. Wales.

I get the feeling Italy need another try or couple of penalties to make this safe.

Hands up, this game is going spectacularly against my prediction and the Scot fans were right, Scotland aren't as good as I thought.

Price made an arse of that with far too shallow and angle for the switch.

Sorry, but going back that far is absurd. They had loads of time to call it back well before now.

If Italy were more experienced they would have taken the 1st Scottish player back over the line and held him up.

Steyn looked in touch and the offload from Price was definitely forward.
