[QUOTE="YoungScud, post: 767723, member: 72423"] I disagree. When someone acts the goat as regularly as this, I feel it's because there is no point to be made. Firstly, the 6 Nations from a Scottish perspective was very different from previous dire seasons. For the first time in many years, those of us who grew up watching Scotland actually started to believe that something fundamental had changed. Our RWC results, far from being the way you describe, vindicated that feeling. Are you seriously saying Scotland were the lucky ones here? If you are, please don't pick my lottery numbers for me. Anyone who read these forums before Scotland's quarter final could have been forgiven for thinking it was some 3rd XV club side playing Australia, such little credence was given to our chances of beating Australia. And yet... So, please don't cry on my shoulder about the unlucky Japanese. At the time the pools were drawn, we were third seeds, so on paper it was Japan which underpeformed, not Scotland. Nice try though. [/QUOTE]
