Jesus christ. We are absolutely atrocious and giving Wales free ball.

Potentially a yellow against us too.

I think Seymour faked that but I'll take it. We would be in serious crap if that was a try.

Why on earth would Hoggy insist on going to the TMO? Get on with the match.

But of course Russell butchers it by playing a million miles behind the gain line.

Does anyone think Russell is actually good for Scotland? He can be hit and miss for the weeg but it's mostly hit. I just don't recall a game where he's shown up for the national team.

We seem to be better with Hogg or a forward standing in at first receiver...

Wales a bit more physical. Scotland need to feisty up a bit here.

There's no excuse for both props to not get their feet in the right position at a scrum. It's the Glasgow tight 5 bar 1. They should have the scrum set up sorted.

I'm seeing what you guys were on about with Lacey. Really liked that whistle doesn't he.

Brilliant stuff but just too isolated. Very unfortunate.

This match is summed up by Visser v North. North/Wales better but it's a cripple fight.

Of course North will now score a hat-trick.

I am feeling incredibly lucky and relieved that we're going in 13-9 down at half time... anyone else?

Missing 6 out of 40 tackles missed is pish.

I still want to see Jones on the wing and get Bennett in.

Not seeing much of Dunbar holding the line in attack, again.

We just need a dynamic carrier in that back-row. Missing all of Denton, Ashe and Strauss is just plain unfortunate.

Webb nailing that lions slot.

Denton and Ashe are available. Bradbury is also fit and on form. The back row make up is Vern's fault and Hardie going off after 20 shows just how idiotic it was. He is a sick note, he has always been a sicknote.

Yeah. Got to say you couldn't have been proven more correct today. Watson has been great too. As he was before. A carrying 8 would be lovely.

Relieved? Aye but we've been honking and they've still not actually created much.

Their flankers and 9 are the difference at the minute.

We need to tighten up the defence, get Russell playing flat and get our centres into the game.

4 points down Scotland are right in this. Hogg's good for 7 points at sometime, though you suspect Wales will be stronger in the last 15

Everyone says that you're biased because you are biased Davies. Not just now but always. Great when not commentating on Wales but infuriating otherwise.

Mossy and Williams by contrast have been a great combination.
