Scotland should bounce back to take this match… with a bonus point.
Tomorrow there are no Rugby World Cup matches, 2 matches on Wednesday, 2 matches on Thursday and the Springboks play Italy on Friday at 12:15 SA Time.
The Studio pundits in the SA TV studios have backed Samoa to win…. phweeeeew.
Have I got it THAT wrong?
I think the Samoan dicipline problems will make them hesitant to put in the massive tackles OR alternatively they will just continue to give away more penalties… I do not think you turn that method or manner of play around easily.
Vital match for Scotland, if they have ambitions to go through to the Quarters.
All to play for, for Scotland, if they win well here and then go on to beat Japan, they can top the Pool.
