Scotland v France match thread

[Slick]

Fitting end

[Northern Lights]

Well played France. Look a solid side now, we are back to dumb rugby, bloody frustrating to watch

[Slick]

Scotland has presented absolutely zero threat in this game, its been dire.

Townsend has gone from one Plan A to another type of Plan A. Clearly unable to coach a balanced side.

I’m struggling to blame Townsend for that shite

[Blackmac]

Hogg needs to get a grip. Too many clownshop mistakes.

Well done france. Horrible game, but they deserved it because the very few creative moments came from them.

Sets up a couple of tasty fixtures for the final weekend.

Well played? Seriously?

Difference between the sides was the single moment in the game Jalibert passed a decent ball to his backline rather than hoof it away.

Other than that, both sides were as abject as one another.

He's completely nullified the attacking threat in search of ground out results.

You were missing both 1st choice FHs. You just saw what happened to the best backline in the 6N when you don't have a pivot.

Which is a viable tactic if it’s working, but clearly we need to show more if we’re going to beat better sides (sorry Wales, but right now that isn’t you).

Our improved defence seems to have been at the cost of any threat in attack.

Which we have all been happy with until today. It’s the same as previously though, there is only so much you can blame a coach for players being as shite as they were today

Just gives ammunition to everyone re the Lions

Sadly so. It always seems to be a game influencing howler these days.

I think Hogg feels that without Russell, he has to do something special.

Poor game however the good guys win ;)

Now comes France B for the next 2 games.
should be enough to beat Italy however England is a step too far

Way too far on this evidence. And Macalou not in the squad remains cutting of one's nose to spite one's face.

In all the years I’ve seen you post, you’re never happy. Take you’re win graciously and move on.

[I like neeps]

France were the better side. More powerful forwards and more skillful and elusive backs.

[C T]

Congratulations France better side won.

And Hogg continues to prove he is an utter **** of a man.

This place has really improved since you and Yeeb came back...

Just lol at the idea that a player thinking they were in control for 78 minutes of a sporting contest makes them an "utter cunt of a man".

And if Hogg had gone low on Vakatawa, it would've been a piss easy try. He had no other option but to try and target the ball & wrap him up.

[Yr Alban]

Hogg’s actually way less of a **** than he was a few years ago. Which may actually be a shame, because his form isn’t what it used to be either.
