Stupid penalty from Scotland leads to France going to oranges 19-10 to the good when it could easily have been 17-12 to Scotland
Superb half

The Auld Alliance match is a great weekend in Edinburgh.
Countries joined by the love of whisky and the hatred of the English.
And colossal over estimation of their relevance in their political jurisdictions ….
Whisky not something that jumps out to me with the French. Is this a thing?

French fans have taken over Murrayfield

Yep. Frogs love a good scotch
France is(maybe was) Scotland’s largest export market for whisky.
NB: historically the political relevance was massive. Kept England in check for a very long time.

Assume you mean the knock on, that wasn't his fault, ball was too far ahead of him ... the passer should have used the numbers instead of going for the glory pass.

Learned something new there.
Talking about the present re politics … and sort of pointing out that hating somebody only matters if that somebody cares.

Strange thing to feel the need to point out.
The context of the comment was similarities and age old connections between the two countries contributing to a good atmosphere and a fun night out.
How England feels about it has zero relevance.
