Ireland 11 / 6 Scotland
Scotland’s scrum and lineout is hopeless
Good try. Much better from Ireland
90 @ Just For Kicks:
Sounds good!
Try Heaslip… Ireland
Sexton – the kicking machine today!
Ireland 18 / 6 Scotland
Eish, maybe I should have picked Ieland by more on Bru…
Ireland seem to play in bursts. They were awful again in that last couple of minutes after the try
Denton and Hogg the standout players for Scotland. The rest just seem to be making up the numbers
27 Minutes to go in the match
Ireland penalty, 5m out… discussion, they decide to go for goal
Ireland 21 / 6 Scotland
Sexton still with his kicking boots on. He’s my MOM so far. Had a very good game
Game over for the Scots. Hope Ireland go off the boil and the Scots can narrow the gap down to the 7 that I picked on bru 😉
Come on Scotland man, jeez they’re playing kak rugby!
Ireland now toying with Scotland
@ grootblousmile:
You mean our picking on bru is kak
Some great tackles being put in by the Scots. One thing I will say, they never give up
108 @ The_Young_Turk:
Hey, I had llast night’s France / England one spot-on!
Now if Scotland could get a converted try…. then I’m good again…
Much better by Scotland
Better Scotland play now… and they’ll have a very attacking lineout
Come on Scotland… spit, spit, spit…
@ grootblousmile:
I had France by 2, so near yet so far…
@ The_Young_Turk:
Sorry meant to say France by 1
115 @ The_Young_Turk:
You mean you had England by 2?
France won by 2
Arghhhh, Ireland on attack again
You’d think that as these players are well into the local competition season, they’d be at top fitness. Why then do they look so undercooked?
13 Minutes to go.
Match has fizzled out a bit now
