Bout of weekend insomnia so been watching the 7s from Cape Town, American girl just got a yellow card after 6 seconds. [emoji23]

The US won 8 points from the singles to lift the trophy 16-14. Woods won again, and Reed finally managed to get a point on the board. This really should have been a no contest though, and Els and his squad with 7 rookies on board did a great job of taking it down to the last few games. Cam Smith and Sungjae IM were among the most impressive for the internationals, IM went from being 1 down against Woodland after 8 holes to being 4 up and shaking hands on the 15th, while Smith beat Justin Thomas who had played very well in the previous 3 days.

Meadow won 1-0 at Petershill just about this time last season that kick started a run if good form.

The day that Heston freezes his fingers off with liquid nitrogen can't come soon enough imo.

Rob Cross out.

Yep, got a feeling Emma and Anton might sneak it though. Would he stunned if Karim won as he hasn't had the public support to keep him out the dance off a couple of times.

Ernie basically telling the Yanks to deal with it.

Wasn't his only mistake, but that long pass out to Niko that he dropped changed the whole pattern of the game, Glasgow were camped on their line and never really got back there after that.

Really disappointing performance after grinding out the win last week, very slim chance of going through now imo.

Been a few games where to me it seems they have the clock set for certain subs to be made, regardless of how the game is going or how players are performing at the time.

Wtf was that from Horne? That's a fucking mental pass that lets them relieve the pressure.

^^^^ Dylan Hartley found...

Should definitely have been one for whoever brought down the maul, even without having so many in a row.

You would hope so.

Going to be very tough to get a win from here, I reckoned that was easily a 10 point wind, La Rochelle will just play territory as long as they have a lead to defend.

Playing Madden NFL on PlayStation was a big help to me learning different plays and what they meant. Even then it has taken me years to have a decent understanding of penalties and having an idea of what a flag has been thrown for. Still learning though, as last week was the first I knew you couldn't get flagged for pass interference on a fake punt play.

Scotland scraped a win over Spain, in Cape Town but England lost to France to see the French finish top and Scotland go through in second place. Conditions at Scotstoun are awful. 11 changes to the La Rochelle line up, but they have brought in some very good players.

The only surprise here was that a member of Reed's family got into a fight and it wasn't his wife.

Scotland lose to France in their second game, they now need a big win over Spain in the last game.

Ugly sweaters? Horrific club photos thread for that.

Turns out his caddy is an arse too. Presidents Cup: Patrick Reed's caddie involved in altercation win fan - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/golf/50792779 The internationals opened up a 4 point lead after the morning session, but the Americans managed to claw it back to 2 points in the afternoon. Tiger had played as well as anyone in the first two days, but sat out all day on Saturday, so he might be struggling a bit fitness wise.

Scotland get a game winning try with the clock red to beat England at the Cape Town 7s. Femi Sofolarin, who used to play for England, with a terrific finish to bag the win.

9 for Friday. I'm Chopin mad.

There have been many charlatans in Scottish politics over the years, but Swinson must be right up near the top of the pile. To think she was genuinely saying she could be the next PM last month, to being emptied this morning. Might need to get a real job now, as party rules prevent her staying on as leader of the Lib Dems.
