[QUOTE="Peat, post: 481234, member: 42330"] Read the press reports and reports of Scottish fans there and they're unanimous that England were in trouble at the scrum. I don't want to blame that entirely on PDJ, as Slater/Robson are not the heaviest lock pair (particularly Robson, whose name is starting to crop up in a lot of bad scrums), but he can't be excused entirely. Nor do I think you're being fair on Cole really. I seem to recall you were one of the crowd (as was I to an extent) expecting the English scrum to get munched at Murrayfield - it doesn't, it even gets a slight advantage, and now you're saying he merely 'held up alright'? One or the other surely I'd have thought. Those were two very tough scrummaging assignments and England came out slightly on top of both, after most people predicted problems there. What more do you want? [/QUOTE]
