Decent in the end, but we lost as usual.
Still far too much tackling going backwards.
To me that's the key.
If we tackle them going forward aggressively, consistently we can beat them.
If we only had decent half backs.

No recognised no 7 !

Playing for Scotland

Burrow would be more dangerous than chase, he can cause panic with his runs from dummy half.

Impressed with G Burgess though.

Me too.

Australia 2 are doing well ... sorry Italy.
lol

Agree. I dont think he ever once took the line on. Also didnt agree with the chopping and changing when Sinfield went to 9.(Although we all knew it was going to happen). Thought Roby controlled it well while he was on the pitch. We all knew of the issues at 7 and 6 and it showed.

Fantastic atmosphere at the HJ for NZ v Samoa yesterday - very enjoyable.

i think there has been some very good games so far.
Also good attendances.

Heading to see my adopted home play tonight. looking forward to seeing derwent park. Been a few years since I was last their with the Dons

Dave Scott misses out on Scotland selection v Tonga tonight at Derwent Park .

Watched a lot of the games when I've got home after work. Enjoyed them all so far, the various commentators have shown good knowledge and understanding of the game, but I'm massively confused. Not once have I heard the mysterious 'angle' mentioned, you know the one, according to Stevo they always come in on ? (Even in defence??)
Perhaps, as I've suspected, it doesn't exist, and Stephenson does talk absolute non stop b0ll0cks?
Help me, I'm confused.

Dave Scott playing for Scotland tonight.

Scotland 22 v USA 8

Scots still in the mix.

I can see Scotland being very unlucky, both they and Italy are on a points difference of plus 16 so any kind of win for Italy against Tonga will see Italy progress and Scotland go out having played 3 won 2 drawn 1 lost 0.

Where as USA, having been beaten by Scotland and with a worse record progress
