    Blade Thomson getting careers from the Murrayfield crowd for some big hits. Scotland more physical than in Nice. Scotland giving away a number of penalties though.

    Scottish defence busted after two long passes on a counter-attack. Penaud in for the second French try after 27 minutes. 12-3.

    The French 14 is a very decent winger. I rate this French side to get out of their group st the expense of Argentina.

    I reckon the winner of our pool will face Japan in the quarters.

    Scotland are just crap.

    @Billy-Tell Samoa might fancy their chances getting out of Group A too.

    Nah don’t think so. They should aim for 3rd.

    Blade Thomson's Scotland debut over three minutes after half time. Goes off after a bang to the head.

    56 minutes gone. French look out of puff already. Scottish lineout terrible. 10-14. Quality of this is shocking.

    Chris Harris with the try after 60 minutes. Scotland hit the lead. France look bored. Poor defence. 17-14

    Neither of these sides will make the RWC quarter finals based on today's evidence.

    Scotland win 17-14. They have two tests against Georgia before the Rugby World Cup.

    Enland with an early Farrell penalty but Ireland right back at them with a converted try in the corner.

    Shit defence from England. Three defenders blocking out the Irish chaser, no one watching the ball.

    England 3 - 7 Ireland
    12 mins gone

    Slick ball off the back of the scrum, England easily outflank Ireland.

    Cok in the corner.

    England 8 - 7 Ireland

    Ireland have pack problems. Best is their John Smit just past it and their South Africans Stander and Kleyn are struggling.

    Backs are also defending poorly.

    @Billy-Tell England make more dominant tackles than any other team. Hugely physical. Agree that Ireland have been average.
