So Scotland do the business.
The minnows will fight bravely but the bigger boys will grind out the win in the end.

The size of the USA players is certainly helping them in the thigh phases

I reckon the refs have been told to tighten up on the skew throw ins, as last week, those were getting through. Even yesterday a few snuck through

Good win for the Scots after a very lethargic start and 1st half. Team talk at half time made the difference
