    Brilliant first half, messy second but the game was over anyway. Very surprised at how poor Scotland were in the first half. Biggest concern is possible injuries. Lowe, Hansen, Furlong....particularly Lowe who's gone to hospital with an eye injury.

    The reward for coming first in such a tough group is the All Blacks waiting in the quarters....what a shit fucking mess the IRB made of this WC.

      ABs go hard and straight, drag them into deep water, make them start to question themselves. The ABs team next week will be cold and unemotional. Sexton Will be buried under Parisian turf

        What this game proved is there is a clear top 4, then a gap, then an interchangeable group of another 4. And then everyone else

          Think that Sexton is getting a bit to much love, comprehensively out played by Finn in a well beaten team

            Finn is a good footballer, didn’t watch all this game so generalising, but if he got to play behind a dominant pack , wevcould be referring to him as best 10 in the world in the near future.

              Yep,Scotland might be 5th on paper but today proved that is pretty generous.

                  “Mercurial” is a much better description.

                  Like an “almost as good as Beauden Barrett when he was awesome” on his day but even fervent Scots fans wouldn’t bestow that on him.

                    You called it, no denying that.

                    Still a better team than Wales though 😉

                          They will need to prove it by beating NZ and getting to a semi's for the first time in their history. Can they do it? Absolutely. Can NZ beat them? Absolutely.

                              Ireland will be hot favourites after todays game.

                              I think this RWC is basically over now.

                                    @taniwharugby I'm confused, the game cannot end in a draw, can it?

                                    I'm also surprised SA are paying $2.00

                                        The idea that this world cup is the most wide open ever in terms of who can win it was rubbish. Scotland are the 5th best team and aren't in the same sphere.

                                        Ireland, South Africa, France are all genuine options and England and NZ can’t be written off.

                                        Can’t remember another WC with that many options.

                                        Did you see England today? England can be written off.

                                        Nz can be written off.

                                        It's a 3 horse race.

                                          Well for once we don’t get called chokers then

                                          I’m desperately looking for positives
