Surprised they didn't have a look at that

Yeah but no real need. All the Russians standing well in goal

Doesn't mean he didn't start early.

It was pretty quick ball off the top

why do Scotland keep kicking it away

NTA

Another forearm fends goes unnoticed

taniwharugby

if Scotland stop kicking it away and stop dropping it, they could put some puts up here

Because they're not that good really

@MiketheSnow the 15 looks like he would be a good runner in a bit of space

Like the USA, Russia need to find someone who is a bit more all-round at 10. Gaisin has a good boot, but not much else.

Instinct, exposure, and regular competition.

NTA

Scots loosehead has elbow down. Watch that.

@NTA most of the time he has held on by a thread....

The prop?

taniwharugby

@NTA yes.

Scotland manage to blow a chance to get thier BP

African Monkey

Fantastic Russian defence to end the half.

NTA

Go Russia. That's a little win right there after Scotland forgot they had a backline. Some great reads from the Russian D.

"Nyet" is about as far as I'd get, too

"Spasibo" if they roll away I suppose

@NTA yes.

When the Russki wrestler guy gets on it could be carnage.
