Am working today and unlikely to see any of games 🙁
Will keep dropping in here to view so updates on the vitally important wooden spoon decider would be good.
well he played the vast majority of his career in league which was tragic for welsh rugby
Yeah - I remember my dad being very cross about that, but I can understand it. Who'd want to have to do a day job as well as play club and international rugby?
Scott gibbs, scott quinell, alan bateman, dai young, john deveraux and jiffy........ The 90's could have been so different!
Found this quite interesting...[url= http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/tomfordyce/2012/03/the_final_countdown_inside_the.html ]England matchday prep blog on BBC.[/url]
Will people stop talking about todays game and join me in walowing in past injustices, i'm trying to keep calm!!
AA - good luck to Wales, they are the best team, not quite as good as your pirate patch would have us believe, but good none the less!
Fatty jacobson had too many pies in warm up and is out!
italy by 5-7
france by 2-3
england by 5-7
Scotland look like a beaten team here.
The shiteness of italy's backs may be your saviour.
Scotland on the wrong side of the ref as well now.
this games so bad its almost entertaining
Bar's open. Summer Lightning or Brains SA Gold.
Tidy.
Neither seems appropriate here CFH.
How about some old peculiar?
That whole passage of play leading up to the yellow card was all because Scotland are unable to claim a restart...basic skill!!
God that Italy 10 is shocking. WTF is wrong with the scots? They don't look at all interested.
Morale collapsed, no belief no faith. Wrong coach and they know a combination of poor selection and tactics and individual mistakes have cost them [i]another[/i] 6 nations.
The opportunity was there a couple of months ago and Robinson was unable to see it. Hopefully this is his last half in charge of Scotland
Scotland would be as well going home now
Arse
Its just too easy for them
Deserved. No linespeed at all on defence from scotland.
Every time I read about Scotland's woes in the paper there is a comment about Robinson being contracted to 2015, and that Scotland can't afford to get rid of him. I'm never sure whether they mean financially or because he's still their best option?
Probably a question best left till the 6 nations is finished, but would the competition benefit from either Scotland or Italy being relegated and another European team getting a crack? Georgia perhaps?
On the basis of this game so far, along with both nations last 5 or 6 years at this level, I'd have to say yes.
I havent seen much which could be layer at the door of the coach so far this game. The team are just playing very very poorly; mistakes and terrible decision making.
It's all very well Scots supporters playing "blame the Englishman" but looking at their 6 nations record (ie since 2000) it's pretty much irrelevant who's the coach, they're not actually that good 😉

Is there actually a wooden spoon? Maybe someone could smack Robinson on the napper with it!
I hate to be the one to say it; when is something going to be done about Roland?
His performance in quite a few games now has been inexcusable IMHO.
why do commentators say scotland are unlucky

bump

The sad fact is that Robinson will not go anywhere and we've shifted Lineen out the way so the inept Gregor Townsend can take over at Glasgow. SRU=bunch of ****s. We should have been beated today by way more than 7 points.
England - you may have been pretty rubbish for the last few years, but at least we're not Scottish! 🙂
I've jst rang my Scots mate, for some reason he's refusing to answer the phone 😆
ach scotland the pish

well, when its says 'tried'.....
Commisserations Scotland. FWIW that was so bad, i didn't enjoy seeing it.
Still, there's only one direction to go from here surely.
A new oxymoron for the STW lexicon...
'Scottish Attack'
😆
Ok, rest of the games?
Wales by 15 i reckon and much as i hate to say it, Ireland by 10. England have made a promising start to their rebuild but i think Ireland will be too much for them today. Still, at least i've seen an England team look like they are improving with each game, if you had offered me 3 from 5 at the beginning of the tournament i'd have snapped your hand off.
Utter pish. One of the worst Scotland performances I've ever seen. So much for the promise shown against Wales, England & France.
italy by 5-7 😀
france by 2-3
england by 5-7
1 down 2 to go
Much as i'd love to see those scorelines it might be too much to ask - but i'll have every digit crossed!
I'm never normally nervous, but I am now.

For Merv. DEP.
Honestly can't see Wales losing this game, can anyone?
Blimey I am nervous too...
Why is it Robinsons fault someone asked? we have betterplayers than in 2000 but results get worse.
Selecting the wrong players.
In the Calcutta cup match he selected Parks - and everyone including the team surely know that was wrong. Negative and backward looking. Selecting Jackson in this match on the bench instead of Weir and loads of other duff selections
Teh team are obviously low in morale
We have tumbled down the world rankings under him winning 2 six nations matches in 15
The players are a lot better than what we see.
French starting to look hapless and dithery already. I don't think they're interested.
