Fiji vs Scotland

Really enjoyed that game. Fiji's defence was outstanding I thought. Nakarawa, Volavola and Tuisova were Fiji's best with Ravai and Osborne also having strong games.

Fiji win 27-22

That will have wiped out the world ranking points Scotland gained last week

Not a huge crowd? Not bad, but not humming.

I would have assumed two tier 1 test nations touring, plus then beating them both in consecutive weeks would have generated some fervour?

@Crucial it didn't, they still improved their ranking points.

edit: actually, the table I have seen is only up to 19/06

@taniwharugby @Crucial - Yeah, they just drop 1 place.

@taniwharugby @Crucial - Yeah, they just drop 1 place.

-1.43 is a big drop points wise though and now they have to have another big win to make up the ground.

[Kruse]

@Crucial Well, in Autumn they get:
Samoa, which should be a slight increase,
Then NZ - where they won't lose any points even with a loss,
Then Australia...
Easy.

@MN5 Cheer up - this is what it would look like after a clean-sweep of the Autumn Internationals...

That looks easy enough for the mighty Scots once their Lions are back #clutchingatstraws

Its turned to shit here ever since we let Kiwi players into our grassroots.

Got to tip my hat to the level of planning required for that sort of sabotage though. Generational

pure Machiavellian, a slow burn to complete destruction, from the inside. We thought we had shown our hand with Dingo, but you idiots still blamed your board.

Don't worry, like back in the 70s we'll build you back up again - so we can watch you self destruct yet again.
