        Adams injured, Cuthbert in. Strange choice as McNichol is fit.

        J Davies is a starter not a finisher. Bad call from Pivac.

        Jack Morgan is a huge call. We'll see if it pays off.

        Scotland have their first choice front row on the bench.

        That could be very ugly for Wales at around the 55 minute mark.

        Scotland by distance

        11-16

            Cuthbert being selected is great news.

            Scotland by 40

              Has all the physical ability and at one point in his career was Lions first choice Test winger.

              Then his head went.

              He’s had 3 good seasons in a row, and the cupboard is bare.

                Crazy how Pivac is saying that the choice of 13 last match was correct. FFS, can't admit he's wrong can he, Adams was totally out of his depth.

                  Agreed

                  One match and remind me of the head coach.

                  Then his head went.

                  I'd not say he's had three good seasons in a row. He was really quite average for Exeter. Equal parts highlights and bloopers. Some of his stuff when not under pressure (I know, I know) was pretty impressive. But the blunders, oh the blunders.

                    He scored in the 1st Test win under Garland then got dropped

                    Lions lost next two and lost the series

                    Good for him then, but still only playing because the cupboard is bare

                          I have cheered him a few times for Exeter but not as loudly as that time.

                            If they had called that an intentional knock on by Hogg, it would have been a shocker for not going back to the Williams steal where there was no release.

                            As it is, Wales get the scrum pen. Rough on Scotland who should've been having a shot down the other end.

                              And now Williams leading with the knee after Graham had already scored.... good effort from Graham to not react.

                                Is it a case of second year syndrome with LRZ?

                                  Finn Russel is such a talent. Just great to watch.

                                  Good finish by Graham but weak defense by LRZ

                                    Scotland get one back camping offside until they get a holding penalty.

                                      Tackle should be let go, would be penalty at best. But really just a good tackle.

                                            Bit of a hard push to say BBC is biased against Scotland in Wale's favour isn't it? 😁

                                                I'm liking that Scotland have clicked that T Williams is rolling the ball back with his hands and are advancing as soon as he does - Berry just throwing up his hands saying ball is out. More refs should rule it that way.

                                                  Biggar taking the piss walking the penalty up to 45 from 50 and doesn't even get pulled. Classic. If he'd walked another 20cm he woulda got the 3!

                                                    Think that was probably gonna be a genuine attempt by Russell until he shat himself seeing how big the Welsh player was 😂

                                                        Wales ahead by 3 with ten to play. Finn Russell in the bin. Should be more ahead.

                                                          Eight minutes left. Wales 20 Scotland 17. Cardiff in full voice. Close game but not great quality.

                                                                            Good game to watch, even with sky being crap due to wind blowing away satellite signal!

                                                                              Average match, great contest.

                                                                              Basham should have gone, but so too should Hogg.
