England win a scrum penalty to set up an attacking opportunity.

Bones

This game might be exciting, but the previous game was a snorefest and tomorrow will be lopsided so the RC is better because there were 2 or 3 really exciting games.

Yellow all day long

sparky

Second YC for Henry Arundell?

Bones

Fuck very lucky so far for Arundel

sparky

Must be a Yellow Card. The ref got that wrong. He clearly took the man in the air.

Jailbreak7

England's flair has deserted them

sparky

Second Yellow card so a 20 minute red card.

Henry Arundell's afternoon is over.

sparky

England's 6-2 bench looking pretty stupid now.

Bones

Another one sided snorefest

sparky

England 14 point down and have 14 men. They aren't wining a thing in the air and they look out on their feet and desperately relived for the half time whistle.

Bravo Scotland.

Scottish front row is too small and fat. Can’t win a scrum with a 106kg hooker and a 118kg open side prop

sparky

A Ford penalty reduces the lead to 11 points.

sparky

England are getting back in this game.

W32

The pillock is warming up by hitting himself in the head

sparky

Huw Jones scores from 50 metres after George Ford's drop goal attempt charged down.

That's Huw Jones' 8th try against England.

Bones

11 points down with 14 men and you try that drop goal?

Normally you'd call it a coach killer, but I suspect it was Borthwick's call.

sparky

Ouch. England only making 78% of their tackles.

sparky

Double ouch. England have lost 14 turnovers to 3.

JayCee

Scotland's clearance kicking is the MVP

Jailbreak7

Just not sure what England have been trying to achieve today..mostly running down blind alleys, and execution has been poor.

Victor Meldrew

Bloody great game to watch. Both teams playing to their strengths 9sometimes not coming off) and some great individual skills.

W32

England rolled up in their Bentleys and forgot how to play rugby

Poor execution

jimmyb

Pollocks entire game is hunting easy turnovers and messy high kicks. No substance

W32

No moral high ground late try yet

pooler fan

That pass to Pollock was at least 5m forward

Bones

Pathetic. Scotland just giving up. Over as a spectacle at halftime. Give me Argentina v Australia any day.

@pooler-fan Would have reviewed it if the outcome was up for grabs
