Scotland France for the lazy buggers

[Tichtheid]

Haute les cœurs, Scotland by 5.

[clydecloggie]

Scotland by 8. Keep France at zero points in the standings.

[C T]

Whether you think Scotland lost the heid last week or were reffed off the park, I can't see it happening again.

Equally I can't see the really quite soft performance from France last week happening again.

Looks like another Scotland vs France cracker.

Try bonus points all round and Scotland by 5.

[SaintK]

Sorry lads, France by 9

[Begbie]

France by 8.

[S/Lt_Phillips]

France by 10, unfortunately

[Big D]

I think Edwards will have their defence right up for this. Fance by 8.

[Slick]

I think their heids have gone, Scotland by 13

Never had andouillette so googled it. From wiki:



Give me finely minced heart, liver and lungs anytime.

France by 10.

“Strong distinctive odour coming from the colon”

I often get that myself when I eat the wrong things.

add enough mustard oignons or wine and you'll be fine

Scotland by 6

what sort of wine, or even would you advocate champagne going into an andouillette?

can't call this game, can France be as bad again, or alternatively is there a good reason to suppose their halfbacks can be informed what a game of rugby should look like and where to put the ball? I'd be tempted to say there wouldn't be as many missed tackles from France, but there may also be a hangover from the home WC, and Galthie might not be the person you'd want to lift you out of any gloom

[fishfoodie]

I thought squidge made a good point in his review. France's kicking game went to shit because Ireland was ready for it, & Lowe just fielded their kicks & returned them with interest, & once France wasn't getting anywhere with kicking, they stopped, but they didn't have a plan B.

If Scotland can do something similar, & just shut down the French kicks, & not kick loosely back to them, they can nullify Frances preferred way to pull defenses apart.

White wine usually

Hope Scotland pulls this one through. Part of our family

Enter the Rowitzer. He'll return those kicks with interest.

Dreich old day in Edinburgh. Game will be won as the French players open their curtains this morning

[TheNatalShark]

Hoping the signal holds up to watch the game with some French volunteers here in Izyum

[Big D]

Steyn out Paterson in.

Massive call to put the young lad at full back rather than Hutchinson or even Jones to back 3 and bringing in a centre.

[Big D]

First 1st cap at Full Back since Hastings according to Gabby Logan. No pressure son.

[Blackmac]

Shot effort with the display. What does it even say.

[Blackmac]

How the fuck is that not a penalty. Blatantly wandered around the maul unbound and slapped the ball away.

[Big D]

He's not bound there.

[Big D]

Assured start by Paterson. Two easy takes but he took them and not messing around trying to keep the ball on play.

[Blackmac]

It's how he gets there. He's clearly changing his bind.

[Chilli2]

Link please

[KingBlairhorn]

I hope Duhan learns how effective it is when he passes. Great score.

[Blackmac]

All the way to Scotland and we make them drink Tennents. The shame.

[Blackmac]

French making meters too easily.

[Big D]

If he gives GG offside there he had to give one v all the French after the dropped kick. Antonio prevented a pass.

Darge already competing better than Ritchie.

[Big D]

That is unreal by Duhan.

Tuipolotu too quick in sliding over.

[Blackmac]

That's his shoulder

[sockwithaticket]

VDM offside there for me.

[PCPhil]

Bless. French whistling band on tour.

[Raggs]

That was offside. Yellow card stuff from vDM.

[KingBlairhorn]

VDM offside there for me.

I thought so too.

We’ve had a pass, an interception and a kick so far from Duhan, who knew he could do all that!

[geordie_6]

Surely never onside.

[Big D]

New hooker, he has dodgy darts and they call him to throw a touch throw then a long ball.

[Jim Lahey]

Lucky lucky boy Duhan

[Blackmac]

Take the bloody points.

[Jim Lahey]

France are woeful. Scots should hockey them here

[KingBlairhorn]

Something isn’t working in our midfield defence.
