Hopefully Ireland will be deflated after all the talk of Grand Slams falling apart after one week. If Scotland can make a decent start, Ireland should be nervy. Would have been nice if they could have kept it to three tries so we could at least be top for one sodding week.

We are top by a single point.

The first 65 minutes Scotland were by far the best team of the weekend, the last 15 mins probably the worst. England and Ireland are no great shakes and we should be able to beat both. we just need to match the intensisty and cut out the mistakes and we can beat any of the other teama

We were much worse when McInally and Laidlaw went off. I hope Gray is back for next week, Toolis doesn't do it for me.

1st half we made too many mistakes and the scrum was poor. We put the game to bed in the 2nd half with a BP but we took the gloss off the scoreboard with 3 Italian tries in the last 10 mins.

It's just like watching Glasgow against the 'weak' teams. Put the game out of sight then just relax way too much and lose a few daft tries. However having Berghan in the bin for the last 10 didn't help matters.

I met the Deacon Blue drummer Dougie Vipond in the Up and Under after the game. The queue to get in was mad.

Fiji got beat by NZ in the sevens. Their fans go full Irish and complain that it was unfair that they had they had to play with six men after they had a player sent off. Also all the refs have it in for them but have not called the ref racist this time so that is an improvement

The Australia ref is now racist (along with any kiwi refs and Sam Grove-White) according to the Fijian fans

England looked several levels above Scotland to me, even discounting the last 20 minutes.

In fairness, he’s an Australian man. There’s every chance he is.
