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

[smit1099]

Great try, the first real bit of possession and passing from England and it's a try. Superb from Vunipola. Some of the goal kicking in both of today's games has been poor to say the least. Game still in the balance though, the next score is crucial.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Ford is void of confidence.

 

[corny]

Why kick it? Hogg would have had the wheels to go all the way.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Hahahahahahhahahahahahaha

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Genuinely getting furious about the Robshaw/Haskell combo.
They're so so slow to the breakdown.

Was that intercepted pass meant for Haskell? He was running really half heartedly not even his hands up - couldn't tell from the TV replay angle if it was meant for Haskell or JJ.
Either Haskell ****ed up and didn't take the pass, or it was a terrible choice from Youngs as there was a Scottish player in between him and JJ

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

1) that failed phase on Scotland's 5 metre will have struck home to Jones how big a mountain he has to climb.

2) Classic Ben Youngs

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Scotland's wings have been ****e.

I'd interpret it more as the eventually inevitable consequence of scrum halves who always run sideways.

But I agree about the back row in general

Yeh Simpson does that.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Was that not illegal scrummaging by Cole? I wouldn't know but he looked to be pushing in.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

Yeh Simpson does that.

Relevant how? Because I'm a wasps supporter? Yes he does, they all do it a bit but youngs is the master

No I was supporting your comment.

 

[Bluemoon]

This game has been a bit disappointing.

Handling errors, a lack of creativity, and a bit of a sloppy arm wrestle.

 

[jordiev]

this is such a typical scotland six nations performance so far.

 

[Tony Manx]

Scots clearly bound on Vunipola arm and pulls him down......

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

No I was supporting your comment.

Opps. My bad.
