    Scotland positives.

    Well, thats the autumn tests over for this year and imho, it was a massive success :-), 2 wins plus a very tough 1pt loss to Australia. We have found a gem in Huw Jones so hopefully he continues his good form in 6N. Another positive imho is the number of tries being scored, we were never...

    [November Tests 2016 EOYT] Scotland vs. Argentina (19/11/2016)

    I see South African born Cornell du Preez has been called up. Anyone able to tell me anything about him, have we picked up another gem through the residency rule :) :)?

    Townsend's coaching staff?

    Who will be on Gregor Townsend's coaching staff do you guys think? The Scotsman says that his current Glasgow assistant, Matt Taylor will likely be his Scotland right hand man too but will he stick with the current backs, forwards and kicking coaches and if not, who could replace each of them?

    Team of the 6N?

    As the ***le of my topic asks, who would your 6 Nations team of the season be? I would say Stuart Hogg, Billy Vunipola and George North would be strong candidates but who else. Since I only watched the Scotland games plus Wales v France I can't give my 15 so am relying on you guys lol. I...

    [2016 RBS Six Nations] Round 5: France vs. England (19/03/2016)

    I am Scottish and WILL congratulate England on their Grand Slam because a) I'm not bitter and b) because I have English friends. England were the better team over 5 games, simples!! Plus it means Scotland end a respectable 4th instead of 2nd bottom, its time to forget this anti England pish...

    [2016 RBS Six Nations] Round 4: Scotland vs. France (13/03/2016)

    Very well deserved win for Scotland but I can't believe how poor France have become, they did show wee glimpses of good rugby, especially for the tries, it was slightly better than the Wales loss but miles off a winning performance needed against England. The tries by Scotland were...

    [2016 RBS Six Nations] Round 3: Italy vs. Scotland (27/02/2016)

    I would pick the same team as yesterday because they deserve that after yesterday's performance :). I really hope they work on the kick offs though because they didn't win ONE of Italy's restarts. As I have said, I think the current French team are beatable, I mean, we beat them in 06 at...

    [2016 RBS Six Nations] Round 3: Italy vs. Scotland (27/02/2016)

    This was an excellent win and performance by the Scots today :). After that display, I really hope people STOP criticising Greig Laidlaw!! He was a worthy winner of man of the match imo. The only downside was the poor restarts on Italian kick off and 2 yellow cards, other than that, it was a...

    [2016 RBS Six Nations] Round 3: Wales vs. France (26/02/2016)

    France were so poor tonight, I am now confident that Scotland will beat them. If Wales were more clinical or created a bit more then it would have been much more than the 19-10. From tonight, if I were Hogg and Laidlaw, I'd be kicking everything at that French backline because they didn't...

    [2016 RBS Six Nations] Round 3: Italy vs. Scotland (27/02/2016)

    This is a MUST WIN game for Scotland in my opinion otherwise it's another winless 6N for us which would surely frustrate the coaches, players and SRU because, in patches, we have been very promising but also, we have been sloppy with silly errors. I do believe that if we play as we did in...

    Change of Coach needed!

    It's either sack the whole coaching team and start from scratch with a completely new coaching team of Mallet and whoever he picks as HIS coaches or, the SRU sack Humphreys, Hodge, O'Halleron and co and replace them but keep Vern, something needs to change before we win wooden spoon every damn...

    Change of Coach needed!

    I can't believe how much you guys are defending this guy!! He knows that his job is only secure by wins which we ain't getting!! I don't care how much great rugby we're playing, we ain't getting results, its all well and good playing "good rugby" but I'd rather win playing unattractive rugby...

    [2016 RBS Six Nations] Round 2: Wales vs. Scotland (13/02/2016)

    Another heartbreaking result, when the **** are we going to win!!? It's time for Vern, Jonathan Humphreys and Mr O'Halleron to GO!!! All this pish about progress isn't good enough for me and even more ridiculous is 0 wins in 9!! Any other coach would have got sack with a record as poor as...

    Change of Coach needed!

    0 wins in 9 now so it really is time for change!!! In fact, if I was Vern, I'd resign right now because it is just ridiculous how we can't win, even when we were ****ing leading!!!

    2016 RBS Six Nations Predictions

    I'd have France in 4th ahead of both Italy (5) and Scotland (6 and winless) unless of course, Scotland improve drastically and France get worse. I just think France will get 2 wins, the win on Sat plus another v Scotland. Italy looked very impressive against France so I think they'll get a win...

    Change of Coach needed!

    A change of coach worked for England!?

    Change of Coach needed!

    I know this may sound harsh and to be frank, I don't really give a **** but, in my opinion, Scotland need ANOTHER change if coach because Vern's record is ABYSMAL, ignore the World Cup, we got to where we expected. 0 wins so far in 6, 6 Nations encounters and likely to stay that way after 10 is...

    [2016 RBS Six Nations] Round 1: Scotland vs. England (06/02/2016)

    I am getting sick ****ing fed up of this "Scotland fought valiantly" pish and think its ridiculous so imho its time for ANOTHER coach change!!!!!!!!! That England team were there for the taking today but, as per usual, the pish English team won and tbh Mr Cotter has to take the blame, other...

    Why dont people like Eddie Butler commentating?

    Who is the Irish geezer that always commentates on Sky, I really like him :)? I see that Brian (Mr moan face) Moore commentating Scotland game on Sat night, would prefer the John Beattie/David Sole Scottish commentary team.
