            Was probably OK this time.

            Problem is he's getting a reputation which will probbly means a card in a key match.

            Looked like a clear shoulder to me, I don't care if that's how he "braces for impact". Don't run full bore straight at a bloke if your only option at the end is to shoulder charge... I mean "brace for impact".

              Lucky England. 38-38. Scotland retain the Calcutta Cup.

              What a game!

                Scotland you muppets

                If they'd let Nowell in at the corner that would have been a fluffybunny of a kick.

                You'd swear England had won the WC the way the commentators are going on.

                England were mauled in that second half.

                  Eddie Jones should be really, really worried. They started off with a bang against Ireland and went downhill rapidly.

                  Whether it's tiredness, lack of fitness or his tactics being worked out, he must have serious doubts about being able to navigate a tournament like the RWC.

                    @Bones He's been dead lucky and should have been sent off in other games, but I thought that was OK.

                      Thanks England, thanks Scotland. I enjoyed that. One of the great games of all time.

                      Hopefully a wee bit of tonic too for folks in the South Island during this extremely difficult weekend.

                          In hindsight, that would’ve been better. Some cracking scramble defence from the Scots out wide though.

                          Thought the reffing in that test match was pretty good.

                          Good game to watch.

                            English defensive line relies almost completely on getting it right first time. As soon as Scotland got through, the communication from the Poms - particularly the chasing backs - was dire. That last Scottish try had no right to be scored, and all because the first line was a Pommy forward chasing a cheap shot, and the guy just strolled through.

                            Helluva game tho. Felt like England should have taken the 3 a couple of times and given their big boppers a rest.

                              What a game.

                              What an advert for rugby.

                              Finn Russell's second half performance was a masterclass.

                              That 8-9-10 axis for Scotland looked great.

                              Yep thought Paul Williams reffed well.

                              Congrats to Wales on a terrific campaign too.

                                Drawing with the 2003 World Champions. If that doesn't get other teams scared shitless then they damn well should be. What a time to be peaking....

                                Scotland to hold the William Webb Ellis Cup aloft in 2019. You read it here first.

                                  At half time I thought England were easily the best team in the North. And then again in the last 90 seconds. But the 38-odd minutes before that? Scotland pantsed them.

                                  What the fuck goes through Youngs' head? It seems like he has was set number of rucks and then he has to kick no matter what is happening. And then he over cooks the kick. Just infuriating.

                                  It shuts me when a team can play like England did in the last 90 seconds but do it only as a last resort.

                                  Kind of heartening for Scotland but the first half and then to allow the draw?

                                    Sure, but a lot of players were out injured. This is the most depth they’ve had for years.
