Knocked… France win
Final Score: France (6) 19 / 16 (9) Scotland
Freegin close game, these Northern Hemisphere teams are going to be up for it at the Rugby World Cup!
Should have gone for the 3 points and secure the draw and not risk possible injury. Congratulations France
Serious question
Scotland smashed the Italians last week, and Wales today barely managed to beat the Italians.
Now the Scots almost beat the French in Paris
Do they have a chance of beating the Boks, especially considering the fact that the Boks will be using the pool games to ease players into some sort of form considering the fact that the injured players haven’t played in a long time
94 @ Bullscot:
Pity about the loss Bully, your team played with heart & passion.
Lucky thing is it looks like no serious injuries, unlike Wales.
OK, outa here… have a good one!
@ grootblousmile:
Thanks Gbs could have and should have won or at least secured the draw with the last penalty. Near the end we had a huge over lap after a great break by Bennett but unfortunately Matt Scott went for that long skip pass and gave possession away just simple pass to the player next to him and then if needed the next in the line would have scored match winning try,;think we had a 4 on 2 over lap then. Concerns about Dickenson who went off so early but maybe just kept him off as precaution Scotland doctor is very good when it comes to possible head knocks. Was also worried at one point when Tommy Seymour clutched his leg and must have got treatment off camera but after that he managed to chase well and score his try. Also spotted Jonny Gray who was subbed off with an ice pack being strapped to his leg probably nothing to worry about.
@ nortie:
Hi nortie good question, Scotland playing with a lot of confidence and can still add 3 more first choice players to the team that started tonight – Hogg Strauss and Gilchrist. BOKS will not take Scotland lightly but think will win that match in the end; at least I hope so or else won’t hear the end of it from my better half
