Entertaining game, but fuck me that commentary was shit.
Biased as fuck and inaccurate.
I went to bed after hearing the commentator wank on about how the French player should've received a card.

Take it as you find it
“Here’s a belter for you about Stuart Hogg ex Scotland Rugby star……..
So….it was nothing to do with his body or injuries. Nothing at all. He effectively got sacked.
He asked Townsend for a day off after the first block of World Cup training. He wanted to go back to Hawick to go to some huge local event they have there. GT allowed him to go. Anyway, Hoggy goes there as the big man and gets hammered drunk….ends up behind the beer tent with a local 18 year old girl!! Obviously, gets caught and shit hits the fan. He gets kicked out of the event and ends up at his parent’s house in Hawick. The news quickly travels to his wife, who still has family and friends in Hawick. The wife (who is in Exeter at this point) goes ballistic and her family go round to Hogg’s family and start kicking off!!
Anyway, the wife has kicked him out and he’s now a total disgrace. Toonie and the SRU then get wind of it and they call him in. It’s happened too many times with him and they want him out of the Scotland training camp. Due to length of service etc, SRU have allowed Hogg to cover it up as his “body has given up” and announces his retirement. In reality, he’s messed up again and he’s got the boot.
What a fool!!
Apparently he’s a very unpopular member of the squad and he’s lost the respect of everyone.”I can’t be bothered looking for the link but I thought it was because the body had crapped out, he’s now the slowest outside back in the squad etc.
Then again, no matter how good a player is ( and he was amongst the best of the best ) there’s only so much tomfoolery they can put up with ?
Here I was thinking Finn Russell was the talented but troubled member of the Scots team…..

There were similar rumours a couple of seasons ago, locally. In the end he kept his contract, and Baxter DOES have a no dickheads policy, so I felt that it was probably just some shit stirring. However it does seem to be that shit that just won't flush.
Who knows though?
