    Coupla things:

    1. We can scrum!
    2. We can maul.
    3. We can't defend a maul.
    4. And no Willie. Number 8 is not necessarily the worst place in the workd when your scrum is going backwards. Hooker is reasonably uncomfortable...

      I cant see the Falcon hype..
      So far I've seen him lose the ball twice, and one poor kick

        Could do with a halfback that can pass.

            Outside of their scrummaging the two NZ locks have been underwhelming.

              Pleasing that Fainganuku looks comfortable on the wrong wing. Not all do.

                A little more patience lads. A little too eager to throw the miracle ball.

                              Scots apparently reported twice to the ref that they've been eye-gouged - not good to hear.

                              Yeah, we'd do well to calm down just a little bit. Not every play needs to be a miracle play. Part of a challenge for tournament teams where people are trying to impress the coach as well as win the game?

                                @Crucial Yes, the first couple of passes by Enari reminded me of TJP (passes bouncing to the intended player).

                                          @Bovidae No excuse. Unless the team just doesn't have it pattern down at all.
