Nope, sorry.
Tbf he shouldn’t have needed to buy it it should already have been given, there was zero rolling away and then gets up impeding Price…

It just was. Didn't roll away and then started to get up as Price had the ball.

You can't not give a penalty because a player is trying to get one. That's not the rules Karl.

Price is an absolute liability this year.

Not really.A ref telling a scrummy not to buy penalties by needlessly heading into players isn't eactly an uncommon occurrence. Nor is allowing play to continue if the ball is available despite an opposition player not being fully rolled clear.

Maybe it's different in the URC, but perfectly normal in the Prem.

I don’t think it’s the refs fault Scotland are losing. There, I said it.

No.2 in from the side there. Not that we deserved anything there. Lacking a lot of accuracy.

He’s alright. S’pose. Bound to have a big drop in form at world cup……surely.

I'm sure Fagerson must have some sort of learning difficulty.

His next one over the top was decent but Graham was standing still rather than running onto it.

Those passes some up our day. A lot of shite then unable to take advantage of anything half decent.

Not sure what Scotland were doing then. Where they going to short pick and go’s all the way to the try line?

He's not an international 10, but throwing him on and asking him to run from everywhere is unfair too.

Kinghorn has played well for Edinburgh but this is quite funny how bad he's playing.

Well done Gregor.

Is there any point to Tuipulotu, he doesn't really seem to offer anything.

I’ve rarely seen a Scottish pack so dominated at the ruck.

I always thought he was more of a 15. Strange at international rugby to not have a spare 10 somewhere in the 23.

According to Townsend he is the spare 10.

Kinghorn has been shite, but hard to blame the subs here.

The first XV fucked the job long before the subs hit the pitch.

We could have had Aaron Smith and Dan Carter come on and we wouldn't have gotten too much further asking them to play from out own line.

Which is a nonsense instruction and will only lead to an avalanche of late points.

But for wayward goal kicking this would be closing in on being a 50 pointer.
