I reckon Wales would've matched the effort but come up short.
France would've been as lazy as they've always been. |

On paper the France team should be somewhere close to able to. But tonight's game is the emotive of the 'games aren't won on paper' cliche.
We (as in the game) shouldn't be worried about who plays in the four nations as much as trying to get all the 'tier 2' teams opportunity to play more often, against higher ranked opposition and each other. |

Hopefully the Aussies don't see much point in Sunday now but I wouldn't bank on it!
Maybe we could play out a friendly draw like the Danes and Swedes in the 1982 football World Cup.

Does raise the potential of helping England's cause. In both Australia's games so far I feel that after good starts they've then taken their foot off the gas and not been as ruthless as they could. |

The commentators were as bad the way they were going on about New Zealand not being used to the conditions I was starting to think it had moved nearer to the equator than the south pacific ocean. |

The draw between Denmark and Sweden was in the 2004 European Championships. A 2-2 draw would send both through and they promptly drew 2-2. Someone in the crowd had a banner that said '2-2 - A victory for Scandinavia'.
Fantastic result for the Scotland team tonight, as someone else said though it's a shame it won't make the papers (or news bulletins) tomorrow due to the soccer international. |

Fantastic effort by Scotland
What will happen to the domestic game and grassroots in Scotland in the next couple of years?
Hopefully the game is able to develop even if it is on a small scale, perhaps in a few seasons a semi pro side in League One may help matters

the game has decent prominence on the guardian sport website but sadly and predictably its nowhere to be seen on the telegraphs |
