Overall, as I suspected, we were dumb as fuck at crucial points.
Early offload/flick from Ikitau when we turned them over inside their quarter. Dumb brain from Wright continually to offset his good stuff.
JOC missing touch at the end. In the same position, the Boks would kick to touch - even for 15m - get a maul penalty.
Then kick to touch again, and get a maul penalty. Kick a goal. That's what we're missing in this game.
Yup that was pretty much how I saw it too. Frustrating to watch. That Ikitau blind offload when the Scots were at 6s and 7s had me head-butting the table
I'll see you and raise you Folau Faingaa attempting a double cut-out pass after we win a turnover in midfield with nobody in front of us.

@mn5 Scotland have a decent front row too and some decent outside backs. Price too is a good scrum half who injects speed into our play. The recruitment of South Africans has certainly benefited the team.
The Van Der Merwe clan provided a good big fast winger too.

Six Nations is going to be something else this season. Crowds back, and should be seriously competitive. Can't wait.

Definitely. Even Italy have gone from utter shit to pretty shit. They’ll surprise a couple of teams.

What, by getting within 20 points instead of 30 and 40?

You watch... they'll tip over France 😉

Steady on. Multiples of two. Those 40 point losses will become 38 and so on.

I just checked the 6N odds out of interest. Clearly the bookies / betting public don't think this is a new dawn for the Scots
France 48/29
England 5/2
Ireland 9/2
Wales 6/1
Scotland 12/1
Italy 1000/1 -

Italy 1000/112 is better than 1000 though

True. And probably better value too.
