Scotland v England

[Crucial]

@sparky sorry you must be on a delay. I’ll keep quiet

[sparky]

This is comedy. Joe Marler throwing in but not straight.

[sparky]

@crucial No worries. Watching on my phone so about 30 seconds behind.

Scotland lead but should have forced the issue against a seven man scrum

[sparky]

Scotland 20 England 17. Good game this now.

Was just out of the room, I thought Marler had retired and clearly hadn't looked at the team sheets!

Good to see him penalised for that.

Faaarrrrk I feel your pain Russell. That's about the worst pass that halfback will throw in his career. What a time to throw it.

Edit: inconsequential anyway

[nzzp]

double cleanout by Scotland goes to TMO for a neck roll.

Rugby has a massive headache with decisions off the pitch

[Bones]

Terrible clean out by Scotland, some basic rugby going amiss for this last minute choke.

[Bones]

@nzzp it was fair though. Penalty only for a high shot. What's the problem?

the time it takes, the interruption to the game.

Get two refs on the field and accept it's a fluid sport. Thisis the first rugby game I've seen in a while - -- so I am sensitised

[Bones]

@nzzp I didn't have a problem with it once I saw it and the correct call was made.

4 minutes to set a scrum however....

[sparky]

Scotland win!

[nzzp]

result! Great finish! Love it

That’s on the players.

Good win Scotland.

[sparky]

Great passion by the Scottish team and crowd at the end there. They wanted it more.
