    Another superb try by Scots.

    Teabag on steroids. Edit. Actually no, not a tea bag as jumpers were pure dummy. Like the Codie to Ritchie move a few years ago.

    Hogg's out-of-hand kicking has been terrific.

    The 'intercepts are evil' and 'crappy floaty passes are good' brigade ruining the game. Time for me to switch over anyway.

    This sport is a farce.

    I think the ref made him pay for that moustache thing

    If the mighty Scots win do they go to 5th in the rankings? British sides ranking 2, 3, 4 and 5 would make the Walrus beat his meat all Christmas....

    They're a hell of a chance especially at Murrayfield but I won't hold my breath......my heart has been broken too may times.

    Yes... according to https://rawling.github.io/wr-calc
    ... new rugby superstition being born... I just applied for British Citizenship/passport... perhaps I've transferred some "All-Blacks-essence" to the pricks?
    I'll consider burning my british passport at the start of RWC2019... see how that goes.

    I travelled from London to Dublin on my newly-acquired British passport, wearing an All Blacks jersey. It's my fault we lost.

    Shit result. In years gone by I think the Scots would have gladly taken that as yet another 'gallant loss' but they've improved enough in the last few years to realise that was a Bok team that was there for the taking particularly at home.

    Ireland and Wales have made huge strides lately but to be honest the Scots aren't too far behind. They'll be a force in the WC.

    Based on this Autumn, Scotland could easily lose to Japan and not make it out of the group.

    haha no way!! i learned that lesson. Once. Once i let myself get a level of expectation once, and of course i got my fingers burned. So the Black Caps and the Warriors are settled in the "no expectations" pile. Fuck doing that to myself

    Living in Sydney in 2003 I couldn't help but get on the Warriors bandwagon but I stepped off for good in 2004
