Not like those perfect Scottish penalties of course ;-)

England have Farrell playing 10 most of the time now. Zzz

And Smith’s a very unusual choice at inside centre; if you’re going to play Faz at first I don’t think you pick Smith at all.
Same as under Jones.

You could say that about the whole pack. Way off the pace.

True. Although the stupid penalties are coming from a select few.

I remember when we had good restarts. It was basically when Nick Easter caught absolutely every single one of them.

Curry was really poor there. Feel like he's missed a few.

Whether we win this game or not I am very concerned that Ireland might put 50 on us.

Like most players for England - some good stuff, some bad but largely positive

Especially with Earl packing at 8, I would have thought Ludlam was the obvious 8.

Smith desperate for the ball on the left, so JVP waits for Farrell to lumber around to give him the ball so he can pass it as per his contract

Terrible. Smith has to jump to catch the crappy pass, killing his momentum, then he just drifts.

I'm not sure what he and Steyn were playing at.

Poor pass from one and no attempt to hold the line from the other. Amateur hour.

Also lol at "England losing their attacking shape" yeah coz Farrell called for the ball to go blind with one other attacker versus half the Scottish defence

Scotland need the rush defense. They give the Poms to much space.

I thought for sure that was an English knockon when Hogg tackled....but that is why I am sitting on the couch
