those predictions were for the losing teams this weekend…….. 😉

I think DD is currently pee’ing over his neighbours leeks… 😀

Scotland can’t cross the tryline for love nor money whilst England have the best scoring record this yr. I actually want Scotland to give England a hard game because if it’s a walkover then coming up against Ireland next week will come as a nasty shock!

dd, if you look at my post, i was joking mate. it is quite obvious.

Get a room! 🙄

The problem with ton is that he won’t do tongues 🙁

I don’t think its relavent who’s fault it was, the ref’s decsion is final and once the try is given there is nothing any of us can do about it.

More importantly I think this tell’s you everything you need to know:
Mike Phillips “It’s something I can always cherish no matter what goes on in the future. I can look back on this day as a very special one for me.”

england look crap today.

I swear Max Evans could win this game on his own.

one of the worst games of rugby i have ever seen.
england were shyte, and scotland were a close 2nd.

ireland will hammer england if they play the same as today.

Scotland played out of their skins, England were a bit shakey, but they still won. Because England are (sadly) fundamentally a better side.

awesome game, because we WON!!! yeah!
highlight of the game was Croft’s try – shame there weren’t any more Scotland players to run through like he did Parks – no-one was going to stop him.
the Calcutta Cup is ALWAYS a messy game, but that’s what makes it great.
😀

So wrong….! It was either Paterson’s try saving tackle or Evans with that delicious chip over the top. Both moments of true brilliance.

We wuz robbed!

A couple of reffing incidents made a big difference. Sin bin was harsh to say the last and the ref pulling a muscle when Scotland had one of their best attacks going! Never seen that before

Having said that England were clearly the better team apart from continually giving the ball away – that kept Scotland in the game

Well done Italy but what is the problem with France, they bewilder me.

Ha ha what a great way to win a poor match aginst the paddies 😀 so lovely to be able to rub stampy Stringers nose in it.

Can someone explain some of the odd reffing decisions, Wales going forward in a maul as the player is held up, once by BOD holding his legs. Ref blows and awards scrum to Ireland even though Wales were advancing. Shouldnt the put in go to the team going forward?

Have had a miserable Sunday so missed the Calcutta calamity. Was it anygood?

Anyone see the Rebels game? Cippriani scored a blinding try followed up by some of the worst schoolboy errors I have ever seen.

Some ‘amazing’ refereeing decisions in all of this weekends games, but on the whole I think they evened out. Fair play to the Scots, they took the game to England and made them work for it. Contested every breakdown. Made for a scrappy game, not particularly appealing to watch, but thats the nature of the game.
Really happy to see the Italians beat someone other than Scotland too, does the STW rugby collective think Lievremont might be in trouble after this years tournament?

Scrappy performance by England and the Irish must fancy their chances now.

As an aside, is Scottish rugby doomed in the long term?

Edinburgh and Glasgow their only two professional teams and the traditional Scottish rugby hearltands in the borders now marginalsied.
Player pool down from 24,000 to 12,000 in barely over a decade, it doesn’t look promising.

I hope he is. Partly because of results but partly because of the press conference he gave where he totally blamed the players and appears to be going to drop the entire team for the Wales game..
