@Daffy-Jaffy

A fair bit of “who’s he?” in there, though I don’t really follow much Welsh domestic rugby, so could be talking out of my arse.

Not for the first time. 😟

Go Beefys grandson ! Fuck that makes me feel old…..

Not a single Jones or Edwards, a solitary Davies and two Williams (both on the bench). What's happened to Wales?

Fucken poachers that’s what.

You can certainly never accuse the Scots of that, what with good homegrown highland names like Steyn, Van Der Merwe and Tuipulotu in their ranks.

Really looking forward to this

Expecting a loss from a very young and inexperienced side

But also can't wait to see what they can do

Fit, fast, and mobile

If we can win any decent ball we have the players to score tries

Going to be very interesting to see Gatland's tactics

And Aberdare Rugby Club Old Boy (21 years of age) Alex Mann is on the bench

Hopefully we can rattle Russell

[sparky]

Scotland haven't won in Cardiff for 22 years.

[sparky]

Scotland ten points to the good very quickly.

[sparky]

12 minutes gone. Wales 0 Scotland 10.

[MiketheSnow]

Going to get messy

[sparky]

Wales looking better in the last few minutes. No change to the score though.

[sparky]

This BBC commentary team (Andrew Cotter, Jonathan Davies and Nigel Owens) are excellent.

[sparky]

O'Keefe solid so far.

[sparky]

A three point gift for Scotland which Russell takes. Wales 0 Scotland 13 after 22 minutes.

[sparky]

There must be only two or three Welsh players left from their RWC side.

[sparky]

All Scotland on the pitch and all Scotland in the stands. The Welsh fans have gone very, very quiet.

[sparky]

A bit of Finn Russell after some quick ball and Van der Merwe scores the 2nd try.

[Victor Meldrew]

This is piss-poor from Wales. Look unorganised and slow.

[sparky]

Wales 0 Scotland 20 after half an hour. The Welsh fatties are puffing.

[sparky]

Rowe is winning everything in the air for Scotland.
