Re: Six Nations Round 2- Resurgent Scotland
Tight game and maul are going OK. Not happening with Davies and Biggar. Nice pass from Tompkins on the try but his lack of power in midfield leaves Wales vulnerable.

Scotland looking well-drilled and taking their chances. We're not out of it, but need some points early in the 2nd half. Our try looked kinda easy, so there's hope, we just seem to be a bit crap at keeping possession.

We’ll take 17-8 at halftime. Scotland playing beautifully but signs are that Wales are are not yet down and out.
Who scores next will probably decide the game.

Scotland look like they have more points in them. Wales aren’t out of it, but there’s a long way to goBuggaluggs wrote:Scotland looking well-drilled and taking their chances.

Not out of it, perhaps.
But second-best by a distance so far.
Got to say, I didn't have "Two fullbacks on the pitch, we still concede two tries from kicks" on my bingo card.
We can obviously score when we get down there. We just don't seem to have much of a plan for doing that part.

Re: Six Nations Round 2- Resurgent Scotland
Yea that’s the worry. Pivac’s team talk will be interesting. He didn’t look happy in the stands. Unless we can regain some of control and game management we’re dooooooommmed!Wallpaperman wrote:Scotland look like they have more points in them.

So Scotland can put back to back games together.
Three tries now and this is looking ominous.

Good awareness by Zammit and a cracking driving maul from the lineout.

That obstruction is a let off for Wales.

Re: Six Nations Round 2- Resurgent Scotland
2 games in and 2 reds against Wales, 3 more left and France are a pretty good bet. What we reckon the odds will be...

He was attempting to clear out so definitely a penalty and probably a yellow but I agree the red feels harsh, even if it is the strict application of the laws.Buggaluggs wrote:That's ridiculously harsh.

Fagersons off. Thank goodness we’ve had plenty of practice of playing 14 men. We’re in the lead!
