Scotland vs England, Six Nations 2020

[sparky]

Into the last twenty minutes. 3-3

[sparky]

Neither of these sides know the old Athletic Park matra of not kicking into the wind.

[MiketheSnow]

This is fucking dreadful.

But oh so compelling

[sparky]

Can't believe that none of the coaches dug up the video of the All Blacks from the first 1996 Bledisloe of a masterclass of how to play Rugby in these sort of conditions.

At least the Murrayfield spectators don't have to sit in a Millard Stand

Another week, another Stuart Hogg horror?

No, scrum 5. No try.

Watching Scotland is weirdly addictive, frustrating and compelling - all at the same time

[sparky]

Big opportunity for England to win the game.

[MiketheSnow]

Please make it a 10-10 draw

[Victor Meldrew]

England deserve to be ahead/win but have been pretty underwhelming and tactically naive.

Scotland could easily be ahead - but then again, it is Scotland.

[sparky]

Try by the excellent Ellis Genge. Converted.

Scotland 3 England 10

[Victor Meldrew]

Been impressed with the Ref. Has let the game flow and been consistent.

Wasn't he one of the better ones at RWC2019?

[sparky]

England forwards off the bench have done the job.

Shot at goal right in front with four minutes to go.

[sparky]

Farrell nails it.

Scotland 3 England 13. 3 minutes to go.

[sparky]

Scotland with a penalty straight away.

Hastings. Gets it. Scotland 6 England 13. Two minutes to go.

[sparky]

Ball out. All over. England win the Calcutta Cup again.

[sparky]

Dreadful Scottish lineout cost them dear.....

[sparky]

Sparky's man of the Match was England Hooker, Jamie George, 19 tackles, part of the superior scrum and very good lineout work in tough conditions.

[MajorRage]

Eddie Jones gave quite a prickly interview. He really does hate the media!
