We'll get a BP win here, with only third to play for, against a team desperate to win a game this year, with two of our most important players missing. We've scored three tries after 45 minutes against a very decent team. Not sure what more people are looking for in the circumstances 

Not quite how I envisaged it 45 mins in

Nah. Townsend doesn’t get to celebrate that.  They were dreadful. 

A win's a win. Italy are no mugs anymore and this game will, rightly or wrongly, have meant much more to them.

Nah he's pretty raw and gives away pens but he was an excellent carrier for most of that game 

Yeah, I'm surprised by the Dempsey hate, I thought he was our biggest carrier and made yards every time.

He was doing the job everyone was saying they wanted an 8 to do for Scotland for the last five/ten years. Quick look at the stats there he made 80 metres from 13 carries (52m from 13 carries for schoeman, as a comparison), and 9 more tackles than any other Scot.

Poor Michele, feel for them. We've had a fair few of those in the unbeaten streak where all of a sudden their carrying game looks completely irrepressible for 25/30 mins and we struggle to contain them. Think there's an element of not having the players to play their style outside 10 when they have injuries to the likes of Capuozzo, Padavani, ioane and Minozzi
