Ireland v Wales score flattered Wales.
Well beaten.
Jackson missed a sitter when Evans was taken out in the air but that's just papering over the cracks.
Biggar doesn’t work with this pack.

"Ohh Flower of Scotland"....... Maitland's try was a corker! Well done the jocks.
Having said that Farrell has to be the best 2nd five at the moment. -
Great work Scotties. Magnificent stuff. Don't trip up against the wops and the paddies and you're assured a good finish in the tourney.
Honestly couldn't care less if they get beaten by the others. My brethren beat fucking England and that is all that matters. (More than a bit hilarious seeing all the English whinging on Twitter about Owens. Even more so the accusations that Scottish fans weren't classy cos they booed Eddie Jones...LOL...)

England really need to think about picking a genuine 7. Scots won the breakdown area hands down.

@rugger-quizzes Any eligible opensides running around in super rugby?

Huw Jones has made a hell of a difference to this side. A few years ago Scotland was barely scoring a try and their midfield was dysfuntional
14 Tests and 10 tries is extremely good for a midfielder who, more often than not, is playing for the weaker side

I don't agree with that at the moment. Scotland are actually pretty good.
He is a bloody good player though.

Well congratulations to @Talisker and @MN5 A very well deserved win by much the better side. As someone alluded to earlier the Scots totally bossed the breakdown and simply starved the life out of England. Added to that we were not accurate enough with the possession we did have and coughed up far to much ball.
Gutted.

Ireland's backline looked very weak in defense. The Welsh managed to score easy tries out wide with just a few munitions. The Irish win by attrition with their relentless recycling. The game against Scotland will be interesting : will the Scottish forwards (Barclay, Watson and McInally in particular) be a nuisance at the breakdown as they were against the Poms ?

It is a weak point that’s been flagged for some time. They’ve gone from parsimonious to porous in the space of a year. Having an unsettled midfield is not helping. Henshaw and Ringrose had built up a good partnership but both out through injury. Aki needs more work and Stockdale whilst he’s scoring consistently, is found wanting too on defence.
