Great to see them getting their 5hit together.
What a performance and getting very hard to beat at home. And nice for that side of the city to have something to cheer for a change.

Absolutely superb
Let's see them do it against Wales now.
Some of the commentators look thoroughly pi$$ed off. Just some mind you. :rolleyes:
Ireland are flying. Take some performance to win over there
Amazing result, brilliant play from a team on an upward spiral. Long May that continue.
i note the BBC are still refusing to put up the result of the under 20's also beating engerlund, last night, although they do have the result of our woman getting beat by engerlund
**** the EBC
Other sports forum ?
It's most unlike Nigel Owens to do Scottish teams any favours but we got a couple of debatable decisions for a change
Absolutely enjoyed myself at Murrayfield today! Great atmosphere and performance by the lads and thoroughly deserved that win.
GIRFUY Eddie Jones!
Scotland win and some peoples 1st thought is to complain about a BBC conspiracy. 'Some of the commentators look pissed off', I'm sure Andy Nicol would have been doing handstands and beaming from ear to ear had Scotland lost.
The news was on air very quickly post game so that explains the limited air time, that will be different on the later edition. Martin Johnson and Jeremy Guscott are passionate about England Rugby hence their disappointment. Lighten up and enjoy yourself ffs.
No wonder people accuse us of being small minded and bitter.
Brilliant performance from Scotland. Blew them away 1st half. Intensity dropped in the 2nd (and England upped theirs) but great defence saw us through. Russell and Jones will get the glory but I thought McInally was superb and possibly Barclay's best performance in a Scotland shirt. Tremendous.
Don't think anyone was talking about MJ, thought he was considered and gracious in defeat. Couldn't care less about Guscott, he was dismissive of Scotland before the game and is the epitome of the smug, arrogant England player/pundit. Inverdale is the worst of the lot though, focussed on England's mistakes and supposed contentious ref decisions rather than Scotland's positive play. Any criticism fully justified IMO and no conspiracy theories here.
I happened to have dinner tonight (with an un-named MP in England) who I'd been to the soccer with. I'm not a rugby fan in any shape or form, but aforementioned guest was spitting feathers at the result :thumbsup:
I won a bottle of Medoc from my local wine bar as the owner gave me (Scotland) a +10 start - drinking it now :thumbsup:
Does this result mean we're now better than them?
The best one was Matt Dawson, ex England back on Five live pre game today, who described the Ireland game in Dublin at the end of the 6nations, as a 'championship decider' :faf: Hé had to be corrected that it was 'a potential' championship decider, and that England hadn't actually even taken the field against Scotland yet, let alone won.
well done Scotland, excellent game, had a wee dram or two last nite.:thumbsup:
We were phenomenal. I thought we'd come undone when they ran in their second 'try', only for it to have been correctly pulled back for a knock on (it was a great tackle, but definitely a knock-on).
Wasn't at all fussed about the understandable disappointed pundits, but it was pleasing seeing the sour expression on Jones' face at full time. Apart from maybe Gatland, there isn't another international coach I dislike more!
