That's the A team

The result here will tell us all we need to know about Scotland's chances in the RWC

Shit.

Their pool is too tough.

I'm going to be cheering loudly for them in it, though!

QF NZ vs Scotland has a very nice ring to it!!!

I think getting out of the pool is the main goal……but that pool is ridiculously strong. It would be nice if there was a crap team like Wales or Australia to get an easy win against.

I’ve only watched a few minutes but the gist I’m getting is that if Finn Russell gets injured Scotland are all kinds of fucked.

That's a cracking try by France

[MiketheSnow]

Great, and fast & frantic, first 27 mins

France the better team by a mile

Sco 3-14 Fra
27 mins

[Bones]

I thought France had changed their kit to be dark blue?

If they're only doing that for the RWC then that might elevate them to douche level Ireland.

[MiketheSnow]

Liking the French hooker

[MiketheSnow]

I wish Ben would put his French phrases back in his pocket

[MiketheSnow]

Cracking forwards try to finish the half

Wokey back on song

Sco 3-21 Fra
Half-time

[Bones]

Why are they still looking? This shouldn't be a try

[Bones]

Fucking hell.

[MiketheSnow]

Hometown Ben

Knock on

[Tordah]

such an obvious knock on

[Bones]

Hopefully those kinds of bizarre and retarded decisions are all ironed out in this "summer season" series.

[Tordah]

French hooker made sure the ref team, at least the TMO, could see what Scotland 3 did there. Probably going to be red

[MiketheSnow]

That was a knock on

[Bones]

@Tordah Ahh man you can see how upset he is, but that was pretty fucken dumb and unpleasantly dangerous.

[Bones]

Congratulations Ben, learning fast. Forward off the hand into the ground is a knock on.

Not only dumb but one of the ugliest red cards you'll see. Dangerous as fuck.

Not for the first time and he deserves a lengthy ban - be interesting to see what he actually gets though.

[Bones]

@Victor-Meldrew He's not English or Irish so probably 12 weeks.

At least it was against the same side!
