come on shire Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) The Canadian boy should have went for an early bath imho. Allan Dell could have had his leg broken. Two good tries and Jacko unlucky not to get a 3rd. The Canadians are tiring quickly and we're winning the forwards battle just now but need we need to keep concentrating as DTH can hurt us with a glimmer of a chance. Not clinical enough early doors especially with the extra man for 10 mins but improved as the half went on. Penalty at the end was disappointing. Should have bagged 3 points instead of wasting the line-out. Still a tricky 40 mins left. Edited June 10, 2018 by come on shire 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiwiDB Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Anyone else not impressed with the camera angles? I’m watching on a Canadian TV feed and between the camera angles and the commentators it’s a hard watch! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been fucking chronic. One of the commentators has been in a perma rage the whole game. Keeps mentioning Canada "setting the record straight" after the 2014 test in Toronto. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leggy Blonde Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Hastings looks tidy. More of a threat than Jackson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

come on shire Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) BBC are using Canadian TV pics. If I was Canadian and watching the Edmonton Oilers at ice hockey or the Edmonton Eskimos who also use this stadium at Canadian football then I'd be seriously motion sick. As for the game we've defended well and been more clinical although Jacko's yellow card penalty try incident was a but silly. Our play from restarts is starting to slip again so some work needed there I think... Edited June 10, 2018 by come on shire 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonS Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Gonna have to dissent from the dislike for John Beattie. I like his conversational style. He lacks the drama needed for big matches but for games like this I enjoy his commentary and I think it goes well with a confident pundit like Chris Patterson. Those camera angles though... surely even someone who's never seen rugby before would know that an angle from behind is the worst possible for action near the try-line. And flipping sides during live play is just amateur. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's absolutely fine as an option for games like this, although Hastings is the coming man, and I'd expect him to start next week. I'd absolutely agree that Jackson shouldn't start at 10 against the Tier 1 Nations though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should of had two tries instead of one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonS Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Pluses: Lineout, the maul, good learning experience in the Scotland style for a few guys we might need later on, Ritchie, Lang, Bradbury, the intensity, the 15 man rugby, stamina and dynamism, Turner, McGuigan's positioning and finishing, Carmichael. Minuses: Positional kicking, restarts, Bennett's white line fever, some slopiness from Denton, Jackson and Price. Further evidence that SHC is just a bit meh. Jackson's main job tonight was to be the experienced head among the young guys. But several of the young guys around him showed sounder judgement and composure. Hmm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Jacobsen Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Decent, much better second half. Carmichael's fairly handy. Good work by the forwards. Demolished the Canadians. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
come on shire Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 As a Glasgow fan this win's been diluted somewhat by that injury to DTH. Having him out till Xmas would be a disaster tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
