It's modelled after the first jersey for the 150th anniversary.

I actually like the lack of logo

Props to Farrell for the blacked out boots to complete the look.

Billy V delivers quick accurate ball from the lineout. Youngs then flings it at someone's head.

I'd love to know if this dummy works when he plays with Exeter, because doesn't feel to have worked with Scotland for a while.

Feels like Scotland have gone from a 30 minute position where they should have been 10-20 points ahead, to being lucky to be ahead at HT

Are they staying on the pitch at half time in homage to Victorian era rugby as well?

After the delicious turd England served up for most of that half, 6-8 with a man advantage at half time isn't that bad.

Scotland have been so much better, this game should be over already.
No discipline and a scrum half who kills every opportunity we had, thank god our defence is solid

Scotland were terrific for much of that half and making England look very average.

Then the idiotic penalties start and it starts unravelling. I think I even saw Hogg and Finn showboating.

Not again Scotland. Please.

Fascinated by what was going through Russell’s head there. No need and the giggle afterwards. Has kept us alive

:clap: That did make me laugh as well. Youngs has played quickest in a while actually so I forgive that one. Same old story with England in that if the forwards aren’t totally muscling the opposition they don’t know what’s happening.

It hides the scarier truth that he was aiming for Farrell with that pass

I’d completely forgotten. Caught end of first half.

Bit of a nothing yellow.

Was a bit of a reaction I guess. The giggle is just him, it took a bit of getting used to...

Give it to forwards, repeat, repeat, not working, kick

Lot of greed by the forwards at the maul, again.

We've got excellent backs, need to use more

And that pass from Farrell shows you why. How many more chances is he going to get to prove he is dogshit at 10 in the Test scene?

I think there has been excellent defence from both sides but from an England view (no doubt Scots can point to their issues in game) it’s almost back to the dark days of the team not understanding why the forwards aren’t swotting the opposition aside like flies.

Watching Farrell at 10 today, you can see why he gets selected at 12 so often. Zero creativity
