[2023 Six Nations] France vs Scotland - 26 February 2023

[AlRums]

Wasted opportunity

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Terrible option and execution on grubbier from Finn there.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Dempsey the ex Wallaby now a Scot after 3 years, comes on.

Shoves Schoeman over on his first carry, bit of trinations violence

 

[Reiser99]

Russell copying Farrell.

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Huw looks down for the count. Entire Scottish year may be dead in 60 seconds.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Russell copying Farrell.

Cant be, I've been reliably, and repeatedly, told that Russell is the best 10 in the game

 

[AlRums]

Clear knock n by France given as a lineout to france

 

[TommiG88]

Shoves Schoeman over on his first carry, bit of trinations violence

I'm awaiting Schoeman to Dempsey to steyn to VDM for a classic barbarians try

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Scotland need at least three here. 2 pens and converted try win it. We've seen in the first two matches France may not score late on.

 

[AlRums]

Ref gave a warning to France for red zone penalties, will he follow it up? Answer no

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

I really dont know why they think a scrum is a better option than lineout. So many variables can go wrong and you are letting France get their breath back. Scotland have smacked of 'trying to be too clever for their own good' with the changed tactics today.

Worked this time

 

[AlRums]

Game on

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Edwards will be raging at that defence, frantically googling "how do you say the c word in french"

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Seems they knew something I didn't. I'd make Scotland marginal favourites now as long as they dont rely on a basic pass from Hogg.

How does a scrum let France get their breath back more than a lineout? Scrummaging is a lot more work than… standing around in a lineout.

 

[AlRums]

France very happy with slow collapsing scrums

Risk of scrum resets as opposed to speeded up lineouts (with more ball in play time).

 

[AlRums]

What a time to **** that up

 

[TommiG88]

Brown made a mistake of throwing it straight. Threw everyone off
