Samoa v Scotland.

A bit disappointing to lose like that but credit to the Scots for clinching it at the death. I thought our boys played alright and probably looked the better team on the day. There were no game stats but I think it would've tipped in our favor.

I think the biggest play of the game was the charge-down, because that kept the Scots in our 22, which meant we had to defend in our own redzone again, after defending our line for 8 minutes already - had that ball gone down field, it might've been a different result as I couldn't see Scotland scoring a long range try.

Scotland have been great down here, so I hope they come back down again. I now know who I should support in the 6 Nations.

I agree about Samoa being the better team on the day, they should have won that game. The referee disallowed one of Samoa's try's just before half time because he said Tusi Pisi knocked it on, but the replay showed that he didn't knock it on, that should have been a try. And that one with Paul Perez was really close too, if he touched the sideline it must have been only just, could have easily been another try to Samoa.

And I don't like the way that ref calls the scrums, he's the same ref from all of scotland's games on this tour. He will have a big pause between "touch" and "pause" and then he'll say "engage" almost right after saying "pause", the scots knew they could engage as soon as the ref said Pause
