Strong French scrum results in a penalty, will go for posts to even score for H/T

46@ The_Young_Turk:I wonder why, lightening fast for me today!
52

The_Young_Turk on 26 February 2012 at 5:50 pm

I picked France by 8 as I thought they would not take Scotland too seriously and would not put everything into it.
53

grootblousmile on 26 February 2012 at 5:51 pm

46 & 49 @ The_Young_Turk:

I’ve tried different browsers and found it makes no difference, but the boss said to use firefox only, so I’m doing that.
56

The_Young_Turk on 26 February 2012 at 5:54 pm

Anyway the company here is worth putting up with some niggles, just that sometimes comments can’t come thru in regular time.
57

Just For Kicks on 26 February 2012 at 5:54 pm

France really not on the ball today, pity the Scots aren’t just a bit stronger, it’s theirs for the taking
58

The_Young_Turk on 26 February 2012 at 5:55 pm

Glad you are able to take a bit of a break, Kickers.
