GAD Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 1 hour ago, Detournement said: There is no point in playing Weir as he won't do anything he has failed to do in the previous two fixtures. Might as well see what Jaco can do before Finn hopefully takes the shirt back for 6N. The back row is a strange one. Fagerson was awful against France yet keeps his place. His carries were depressing, like a boy against men. If Ireland start Doris and Stander we will be struggling. I'd have Skinner at 6. Agree, though at least Fagerson has a bit of potential, seen nothing in Thomson to suggest he's ever going to be up to it. Seems like a bit of an experimental team to be honest. Guess Townsend really likes Taylor and wants to give him a chance, probably in the hope he can recover his old form and bring some guile and creativity to the centres. Blair Cowan getting his reward for turning up from the bench. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Fagerson isn't the biggest 8, he does at least get over the gain line 9 times out of 10 unlike some others. I think he would be better suited at 6, but we dont have a better option at 8 - infact seemingly Fagerson was the top carrier against France Edited December 4, 2020 by honestly united France data 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weir missing, is he injured? Bit strange otherwise to go from starting to being out the squad completely given how thin we are at 10 at the moment. Always thought Hamish Watson is a huge miss when he’s not playing. I do like the look of the bench, though. Quite a bit of bulk to reinforce the pack, and a lot of flair in the backs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngusTheBull Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Some pesky Scotland fans somehow managed to infiltrate the Australian crowd there and were booing the kicker(s) yet again. Decent game, 16-16. Only saw the second half but a draw was probably fair. Stick on red card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Decent game so far between Fiji and Georgia, Fiji looked as if they would blow them away early on, but Georgia have done really well to get themselves back in it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems over eager to get in there, maybe because Watson is missing. Already feels like it could be a long afternoon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Daft pens from Ritchie. However the strip after the ref shouted release and the turnover with Sexton on the wrong side were just as blatant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAD Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Interesting that Sexton would rather just punt that away and take the penalty than try anything on advantage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveThePirate Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Started well, this is definitely here for the taking. Sutherland and Fagerson could both play themselves into Lions contention, and VDM is an absolute monster with the ball in hand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
