[QUOTE="retired9, post: 1124003, member: 79608"] Without wanting to put a jinx on the Italy game its been a refreshing watch for the supporters to see consistent performance, consistent selction and actually managing to get some results and not flake at the first sign of pressure. For the first time ever in the last year or two we have #1&2 in the world now in the 6N, to be ranked 5th in the world and potentially finishing 3rd behind them is no shame at all. Scotland just need to remain stable, GT has trusted the players and rightly so - we have fielded a strong lineup and its been neither possible or tempting to dabble too much throgh injury to Redpath, Hastings etc. Huw Jones has also had great form which has made him keeping his place easier. Hogg should have 3-5 decent years in him yet, I don't know what he can do to recover some pace (if anything) and calm the head. He's an emotional player and doesn't really need to prove anything, it's just hard to justify his selection with Kinghorn hot on his heels. If the passes could stick his creativity trumps BK (who is a great long range runner but not got the same mobility) closer to the line. [/QUOTE]
