Visser in corner..flip pass by Hogg (motm so far)
great work by R Gray leading up.
Laidlaw misses con.
26 - 18 after 68 min.

Thought Laidlaw nailed that conversion then.

Good work all round. Not sure if they planned that play from the lineout or the lineout didn't go quite as planned but they worked the ball well.

T/Duch off in sulk.Plissou on.

Another reset scrum when it looked like it was taken down. Jackson standing right there too!

Scrum buys Sco time..and free kick.

good pressure Sco..in Fra 22..Sco get second wind.
and need to keep play at this end.

Are we finally showing the mental strength required to win a game like this?

Pen. to Sco at scrum..kick at goal option from GL..
bags it..29-18 after 75 min.

That is probably one of the best kicks I've seen...ever!

That was never straight!

attacking l/out to Fra..forward pass means Fickou score anulled.
another maul..and scrum to Sco.
Game over..

Just 2 mins. to run down..

Mooro agrees with me..Hogg gets the motm..

Yes!

Well done Scotland.

Jackson was absolutely inept at scrum time.

Keep the ball in play, go for another try!

Good all round performance..back to back wins takes Sco to 3rd in table.Well deserved.

WIN FOR SCOTLAND.

That was a game that suited Scotland. Well played, a deserved win.

I got the feeling he just wanted to see the odd scrum end with something other than a penalty.

Hard to argue with that. Far too many teams see scrums as nothing more than an opportunity to milk a penalty.

Disagree. Why continually let props collapse at will and other players cheat? Penalise, warn, card. He was just guessing with most decisions anyway.

Fucking yes. Not perfect but so much closer. Richie Gray back in to things has made a huge difference. Great for Dunbar to get through a full 80 and Hogg to more than make up for that early missed tackle.

Also credit to Horne, I was far from convinced with him having 75 minutes to play at 10.

Sco. hitting on an effective style of play..strength in depth in the backs.Confidence will grow too.
Worked hard for win when pressure was on, showing good team spirit.
Fra will be smarting and some talent and power on show.They could scupper Eng GS designs if they give it 100%.
