[QUOTE="Finerz, post: 308715"] I think that Andy Robinson has been just what Scotland have needed and that if some luck had gone our way we could have been contending for the championship. The first game against France was never going to be a win for Scotland and not surprisingly Parks was not involved in the only game we didn't have a chance in. Against Wales, we undoubtedly deserved to win, and without some stupid decisions we would have been on our way to a triple crown. The result in Rome would probably have been different in the result in Cardiff had been different and then there was the Calcutta Cup match, where we should have taken advantage of an uninspiring England side, and we would now be proud holders of the triple crown after a much deserved win over Ireland. Looking forward to next year now, to the Six Nations and the World Cup, I think we are finally going to fulfill our potential. Our pool in the WC is a decidedly lucky one. We could have ended up with New Zealand, Australia or Southafrica as the first seeds, but we got a team we could probably beat consistantly in Argentina. Against England we will be pretty much equal, judging on this years performances, and if all goes to plan, Scotlad could be through to the knockout stages to maintain our 100% record. Do you agree that we are on the up, or will we just keep slumpng back down in typical Scottish style? [/QUOTE]
