[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 889243, member: 74121"] Really disappointing in how France tailed off and lost all discipline. Especially after a bright start. I can't see either team beating anyone other than Italy on that evidence this 6N. Townsend corrected his tactics compared to last week and had some direct running (the locks were strong on that score). Scotland really missing Dunbar who is a bit of a defensive maestro. Yup. Finn Russell hasn't had a great tournament and was greedy and fatally misjudging the wind today. But he is better than Biggar and on merit should have been ahead of him on for Lions selection. That's all anybody on this forum has said as far as I can recall. He's had a great year for Glasgow contributing to them winning every game and has a ludicrous kicking at goal success rate this year too. Pretty questionable from my perspective to see some posters throwing him under the bus after a couple of sub-par games. Also a complete failure to acknowledge that Ford has a much easier life behind a dominant and strongest pack in the comp compared to Finn behind probably the joint weakest pack in the first two weeks. But by all means grind that axe away! :p [/QUOTE]
