The seagulls were awesome today :greengrin
I thought Darcy Graham's wing play was slightly better! 😊Quote:

*can't see Scotland beating either SA or Ireland in the pool stage
Scotland doing very well to limit this French 2nd string to just 3-21 at HT
That was a disappointing 1st half. Created nothing. Linout not functioning. France will be very very close to being champions this year I think
we're world beaters again :thumbsup:
for now
converted 10-21
i think that could easily have not been given as i really didn't see the hand pressure :)
Fagerson is a complete fanny!!!
what on earth happened here, turned over after 48 mins down and out then tuned back in on 78 mins and winning :shocked: i'll need to wind that back ;)
expect a hammering next week though :boo hoo:
What an amazing 2nd half performance. Everything that the 1st half wasn't. Fagerson is still a fanny
Second half was terrific.Quote:

Kinghorn looked outstanding at 15 today. Read the game and spread the ball very well.
Correct on the Fagersons, however they are invaluable when defending so it's a hard call really. Unless someone else steps up.Quote:

Bet they will feel silly tonight.
Adam Hastings one of four dropped out of the WC squad
Whilst he's had a few niggles with injuries lately he covers 10 and 15 so would have been a good addition. I'm not a HUGE fan though and it means Healy will go as Finns understudy probably.Quote:

I think Richie will play against Georgia... hopefully.
It's getting towards key time for shaping the squad.

Fear the worst for Scotland tonight, I'm assuming France will have a lot of changes from last week.
63 mins played and owen farrell becomes the 3rd England player to get sin binned, down to 12 players and losing 9-10 v Wales
try wales 9-15
9-17
12-man England get a try/converted 16-17
Farrell card upgraded to Red
they still have two friendlies to play so i suspect he will get the same as what Fagerson got, three games with the 3rd one being some training test whatever
Townsend is 'confident' he will make the WCQuote:

I disagree - I think Farrell will miss the first couple of WC group games - that was a horrendous tackle (and far from his first).Quote:

brave call going for touch when the 3 points were on there
worked though :greengrin try

Referee seemed determined to card a Scotland player there.
Anyone know why Price was sin binned?
that was an easy enough french try
converted 13-10
Not retreating 10 metres at the previous penalty. We have been warned twice about penalties so no issues with a card for thatQuote:
