12-10 scotland HT :greengrin crap game tho
FT 18-16 scotland :greengrin shocker of a game tho :agree:
Well done Scotland! :thumbsup:
Personally I'd love a shot at the frogs in the quarter final.
The results all that matters....
But the game was almost as bad as Doddie Weirs trousers :greengrin
And before anyone has a go at me, I have nothing against the French.
Madame Peeve is a frog and my daughter is a semi-amphibian! :greengrin
doddie weir's breeks :bitchy::greengrin
Nah! nothing was as bad as them! :bitchy:Quote:

MON THE SCOTS WC WINNERS 2007 :thumbsup:
Argentina will give them a damn good hiding in the quarters.
Argentina looked awesome today. I expect them to go pretty far, and possibly pull off a big shock on the way.Quote:

Beating anyone wouldnt be that big a shock.
think your being a bit harsh there, whos to say if the italians didnt comitt fouls whenever we got close to the their line we wouldnt have offered more of a try scoring threat?Quote:

considering the sides that have been put out i think its a pretty good achievement getting to the quarter finals, and although argentina will be strong favourites i think we've got a better chance against them than we would have if we were playing the french :agree:

P.S. we dont have a very guid record against the argies over the years http://www.rugbydata.com/scotland/argentina :boo hoo: but who knows :wink:
If there had been a half decent ref on Saturday Scotland would have won much more comfortably . Any way who cares we won and it doesnt matter how.
Argetina will be a tough game for us but its definitely winnable . Scotland will control the ball at the breakdowns much better than anyone who has played the Pumas so far . Then its down to Chris Patterson again - we dont need to score 4 tries unlike the Irish. Roll on the semis.
Is there a posiblity of meeting England in the next round? I would fancy our chances against them if we beat Argentina :agree:Quote:

P.S. in vlads world it would be possible for a scotland v england final yes :agree:

They kicked a lot down the throat of the full back against Ireland, and both Lamont and Southwell's performances at full back, particularly under the high ball leave a lot to be desired.Quote:

we've not beat argentina for 17 years so it looks like we're up against it!!!
