The Scottish scrum that’s been turned inside out today. And they take a scrum for the penalty. Interesting.
They've won a few penalties from the scrum today. And slipper is in at TH.

And Hogg bolloxes it up again. Has he been this bad for Exeter recently?

That's the first bounce that's favoured Scotland.
We're getting every decision from Poite to even it up though.
It feels like whoever's defending gets the decision... except that time.

Scotland are missing a few up front, so Kebble will be coming on at THP at somepoint so both teams will have LHPs at TH.

You are wrong about Finn but spot on about Hogg. The more he fucks up the harder he tries, the more he fucks up. Bit of a liability at this stage

Bit of a silly carry by pinball there. Much more than even he could chew, would've been fantastic to see what van der Merwe could have done from there if he cut inside with the backline pretty much set-up.

Both sides seem intent at running beelines at 45% straight toward touch. Either out or isolated and turned over.

That's interesting: not a single passage of play beyond 6 phases.
It’s very hard nowadays to string together more than 5 phases without getting turned over. The quality of jackals at rucks has just become too good.
Unless you are the ABs. Partly because they aren't so keen to die with the ball.

No. I'm not. He made 2m or so before being tackled. He needed to take one of those metres infield.
Sco scrum dominance might just get them home. Aus should be on a yellow warning by now.
