[2020 Six Nations] Scotland vs England (08/02/20)

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Is Sonja still doing the after match talks?

 

[Reiser99]

What **** weather. I'll take that any day of the week.

 

[Which Tyler]

Well at least the Calcutta Cup is back where it belongs.

Calcutta?

 

[ThebigARena]

Why would Scotland opt to kick possession on 79 mins when they know a try would only won it ?? Strange..

 

[Which Tyler]

Biggest take away from that is... Just glad I wasn't out there

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Underhill treating the question with the lack of respect it deserved.

 

[Which Tyler]

A try wouldn't have won it but yes, Scotland had no choice but to keep it in hand. Sometimes it's just hard to go against instinct I guess

 

[TommiG88]

Sonja is awful. The only thing worse than the game itself.

 

[Which Tyler]

Underhill treating the question with the lack of respect it deserved.

Likewise Farrell... Twice
ETA and Hogg... Twice

Fazlet essentially tells her its a stupid question, Hogg completely ignores what Sonja asked and answered the question she should have asked

 

[ncurd]

Calcutta?

??? I spelt it right...

 

[BiggusLaddus]

Sonja is awful. The only thing worse than the game itself.

She just went one better...

"So Owen, your mates failed to adapt to the conditions, are they thick or what?"

 

[BiggusLaddus]

Farrell and Hogg are both shivering and chattering their teeth. Why are they being made to **** about giving interviews out in that?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Underhill treating the question with the lack of respect it deserved.

What was he asked/did he say?

 

[Which Tyler]

??? I spelt it right...

Yes, I just mean that the Calcutta cup "belongs" in Calcutta

 

[ncurd]

She just went one better...

"So Owen, your mates failed to adapt to the conditions, are they thick or what?"

When does anyone play well in those conditions? From what you guys were saying and text commentary event despite some players like Ford not having the best match it sounded par for the course.

 

[Which Tyler]

What was he asked/did he say?

Something like "did the weather effect how you played the game?"

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Something like "did the weather effect how you played the game?"

Sigh

 

[ncurd]

Yes, I just mean that the Calcutta cup "belongs" in Calcutta

Ah okay, having a quick read I don't think this is an Elgin marbles type situation. Might as well have the Stanley Cup back in that case.

 

[Reiser99]

Honestly it will take another 20-30 years for conditions to be that bad. A win is a win.​

 

[Which Tyler]

Sigh

Faz was then asked why England failed to play the conditions, and what are your thoughts about going up against your dad.
Hogg was asked if England are better than Scotland, and... Actually, I can't remember the second "question"


And now Gregor is asked if he's frustrated that Scotland didn't score more points than England.
And then "I'm not trying to be facetious here but..." And you can see his head drop before she even gets to the questions (which was "aren't Scots supposed to be used to rain?")
