Forest of Dean Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 5 hours ago, John Lambies Doos said: 8 hours ago, GAD said: We are Scotland. Three years ago we won the wooden spoon. If we finish with three wins this season it's good going. We are also managing to build considerable squad depth for the world cup where there will be no home advantage for any of the big teams. I would say things are going pretty well. OK, probably a bit harsh with the shameful display but the fact remains that a 20 point defeat to Ireland and a 30point defeat to Wales is completely unacceptable. There is a serious mental issue with games away from Murrayfield. Constant daft mistakes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunning1874 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Wales score to go 24-7 up, but then with 2 minutes left for Williams Davies goes and gets himself binned as well. And Italy end up back in their own 22 as the 2 man advantage ends 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Ireland playing fast and loose with the head injury protocols again. Doubt anything will happen though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donathan Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 With Italy getting gubbed again today, they’ve now given up a try bonus point in 8 of their 9 games since the bonus points were introduced. Only Wales last year failed to put 4 tries past them. The talk of a relegation system isn’t going away. Personally I’d prefer to just go back to five nations but also introduce a European Championship with 8-10 teams every two years. Italy add no value to the tournament in their present state. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Lambies Doos Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Bit torn for next wk tbh, even although I'm half Irish I can't fucking stand their rugby team but a win against England, assuming we beat Italy means 3 place finish. Even better if France beat Wales we still finish 3rd but above both England and Gatlands wales 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Lambies Doos Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Can we finish second? I think I preferred this before the bonus points came in.Nope. 3rd is best we can finish, 5th is worst. If England beat Ireland it will probably be 4th. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even better if France beat Wales we still finish 3rd but above both England and Gatlands wales Ireland win, Scotland BP win, Wales and France draw with no BPs. Think that would mean Scotland would finish 2nd or 3rd and England 5th. Inverdale would dissolve live on tv. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't finish above Ireland obviously so finishing above Wales and England would be great. Don't mind the French finishing above us.

come on shire Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Disappointing to lose on Saturday but was always going to be tough vs a good Ireland team with such a brilliant home record. However we're doing the same at Murrayfield which is a positive so if we can win in Rome (preferably with a BP) then hopefully we can finish as high up the table as possible. However it was nice that the U20's and Ladies won with the 7's picking up silverware this weekend at least. As I type this I'm at Edinburgh airport ready tor the flight to Rome lol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
