Steve_Jersey_HMFC Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Last 10-15 mins a bit of a damp squib, understandable that France started to play with a lot more freedom they had nothing to lose but shame we couldn’t have composure get the 4th try and BP, constantly just kicking it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 A good win for Scotland which I would have gladly taken before kick off but a bit frustrating that we just kind of aimlessly kicked away good ball at the end. Any win over the bigger stronger nations is more than welcome though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo in Japan Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Ritchie deservedly Mom but Watson also immense. Playing against 14 men, you should be fairly confident of winning so not getting the 4th try is a bit frustrating but a win's a win nonetheless. France their own worst enemy. On paper, Scotland should be able to get a win in Cardiff. In practice.. I'm not sure they will. Will still be looking forward to it!

Boaby Ewing Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 One of our more successful tournaments in recent years. There’s a good team there, assembled from a relatively shallow pool. I’ve no idea if we can kick on from here, but the last three competitive fixtures we’ve lost (Ireland, England and Japan in WC) were all lost by exactly 7 points. I’ve no time for glorious failure, but that should be encouraging. Small margins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victorian Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 3 wins in a row for the first time in 24 years. The other 2 games were close as well. First win away to a good team in ages. Generally the team is performing nearer to the levels of the good teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
