dogmc Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Was a bit surprised to see Tim visser who was omitted from Scotland squad due to injury turning out for Harlequins in Anglo welsh cup. Even more surprised to see he was at full back....he cist his side a try with am awful missed tackle them butchered a try by dropping the ball on the line 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Australian press reported possibility of a game in 2019 between the All Blacks and the Kangaroos that NZ Rugby seems to be putting the kybosh on. Wouldn’t be surprised if it does eventually happen as there will be a shit-load of money up for grabs. http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/nrl/hybrid-rugby-kangaroos-could-face-all-blacks-in-50-million-blockbuster/news-story/17478fa704842febabb837ed52862796http://www.news.com.au/sport/rugby/new-zealand-dismisses-kangaroos-as-a-threat-in-proposed-hybrid-all-blackskangaroos-game/news-story/73dfefea965c31118ae32d26482ddac1 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 The caley reds highlights are on their Facebook page if anyone fancies it. The ref from that game will be officiating at murrayfield tomorrow. He wasn't bad but he did miss a lot of stuff especially at the ruck area. Would rather a right pernickety ref who will clamp down on Samoa's off the ball / cheap shot / armless hits. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Big upset in RLWC as Tonga beat NZ 28-22 after trailing 2-16 at HT. Tonga’s first ever win over NZ and they finish top of the group 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it mean Australia v NZ in the semis (possibly)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 How does that affect the knock out stages? Was it mean Australia v NZ in the semis (possibly)? No still avoid I think. Ie Nz will play Fiji and Australia play Samoa. Edit: I see you mentioned SF.. Yes I believe they are now scheduled to meet. This now favours England to make final. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Scotland out after drawing 14 all with Samoa Missed a kick for 16-14. Taped the game as couldn't be arsed to get up early and the recording missed the last five minutes off. [emoji35] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doonhamer doon south Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Looking forward to today's game. Hopefully a good strong performance against a Samoa side i think will come out strongly. This is a good winnable game to build up some momentum against the stronger SH teams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jmothecat2 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Got a bit confused reading that until I realised there was a league game as well. Scotland against Samoa in two codes of rugby on the same day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 At least they didn't lose by 60 points again. Yes. Played quite well by all accounts, a bit of pride regained.Not sure what Scotland can do to secure more regular competitive matches outside of World Cups. That is probably what would be required for genuine long-term improvement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Glorious failure seeps into another Scottish sport . That's really gutting actually. It also means we'll have to go through qualifying for RLWC 2021. Not sure we'll have many big games either, regardless, as there's talk of scrapping Four Nations.Group A Australia 34-0 LebanonGroup B NZ 22-28 Tonga Samoa 14-14 ScotlandGroup D Fiji 38-10 Italy QFs:Australia v Samoa NZ v Fiji Tonga v Lebanon* England* v PNG/Ireland *assuming France don't shock England 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogmc Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Get the league world cup binned. An utter farce of whole teams made up of Aussies. Certainly needs a huge rethink. The format is crazy and the eligibility thing is farcical compared to other sports. The world cup is a pretty amateurish affair m that's reflected in the attendances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 It's probably the one occasion that I couldn't give a shite Yeah it's very hard to feel attached to a side that is so lacking in any real Scottish identity. Always a nice top though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
