Generally happy with the Scotland squad although would have preferred to see Cornel du Preez starting and Huw Jones in the squad
Nice to see Meatball back in the number 10 jersey although it is a pity for Russell and Hastings to be injured
Scotland Anthem done…

Garbisi has done well pushing Allen to the bench be interesting to see how he gets on if his forward give him a decent platform
Italy scrum Free Kick… at the 1st scrum of the match
Huge boot on Garbisi
Scotland should waltz past Italy…
Italy penalty, in their own half…
Another bery kickable Italy penalty… posts.
Never onside.
Italy 3 / 0 Scotland
Would like to see that again looked to me that the ball had popped out of the ruck before Cummings picked it up but got pinged

The referee’s call was NEVER ONSIDE…
Italy penalty, well inside their own 10m area.
Italy doing well so far…
Scotland penalty, on their own 22…
Massive Italy scrum… they walk miles with Scotland.
Penalty, definately!
Big scrum by Italy
Commentstur took the words out of my mouth looks like ref has decided Scotland will be offending at scrum time
Italy very dominant
Jonny Gray is looking tired
Scotland kickable penalty, but kicked into the corner.
Poor discipline by Hanning but am sure last night’s ref would have blown penalty other way as Italian player looked to hold onto the ball on the ground for quite a while
Scotland 5m out… advantage is played.
Try Duhan van der Merwe, Scotland… behind the posts.
Italy 6 / 7 Scotland
Try Italy, Minozzi!
