For me, this sums up the mind set of each nation in a sporting and political sense. Yet again, we blow it by making a wrong decision/mistake at the critical point of the match, it can’t be coincidence that this happens time and time again! I've no issues with the Irish Co commentator. It was hardly on a par with Red/Aberdeen TV, Rangers TV or celtic TV Tom Boy actually sees shit that didn't happen and makes stuff up Edited March 14, 2021 by vanderark14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost mirrors the stereotypical psyches of these two nations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hertsscot Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Good win today. You can only beat what is in front of you but came back well after Italy took an early lead. I'm a little surprised Italy didn't actually have any red cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonzo Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Good win indeed, I find it amazing how much we run the ball when Russell is not in the team. France on Friday night let's see if we can field a decent team. All this wrangling with the English clubs and we're going to be penalised for something that was France's fault.

vanderark14 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Entertaining first half in Paris. I'm hoping the French win it. Scotland played some great rugby today but it was only italy. Italy were honking and their discipline was terrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, they have had a bit of luck but Wales tend to be good enough mentally to take advantage of the luck they get. We often make a mess of it, even when we do get some lucky breaks. Wales will probably still win the championship though. France need to beat us, and get a bonus point, and beat us by 20 points. That is all doable but I would still put Wales as slight favourites. We could still get second place if we win by 6 points. France need that bonus point, so it could be an open high scoring game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EddardStark Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 We’ve just beaten England and France away in the six nations but still finish 3rd. We’ve just not carried much luck in Wales game. Fantastic effort tonight. Well done lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonzo Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 What heart from Scotland. By my reckoning we were 2 points away from the title and 6 away from the grand slam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hertsscot Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 What an incredible game of rugby. What a stunning win. What character. I was fearing the worst when Hogg went off, the Russell got the red but that was some performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was impossible for them to win by enough for the title, not that we're complaining Just 6 extra points at the right time away from a grand slam but we finish fourth, absolutely crazy season!

I was half hoping Van der Merwe would try to run it out of the end zone, instead of kicking it out, to see if we could sneak another try. Probably just as well he didn't.

When I posted last night I actually thought I knew the score. I'd tried iPlayer, but instead of the game, after match chat came up with the score in the corner. I was ragin' and switched off quickly, before the buffering blurriness cleared. As I thought it said 23-26 I was right confused watching the last 10mins this morning. Especially with the clock stopped with 17secs to go at 23-20 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
