Jailbreak7

England's flair has deserted them

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.

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

Victor Meldrew

I'd love the Scot's kicking coach to do some work with the ABs

Cracking game
Well done Scotland

sparky

The St Valentine's Day Massacre.

Unlucky 13 for England.

Steve Borthwick's men humbled.

A hard-earned win by Scotland.

And they are the new owners of the Calcutta Cup and the Raeburn Shield.

Jailbreak7

England a complete enigma. They can beat Ireland and France away, but strangely go to pieces at Murrayfield..

Would have preferred Otago boys vs kings u15Bs. Would be more of a watch

pooler fan

Scotland were fantastic, fair play I didn't see that coming. Did England believe their own hype?

W32

Love that Steyn Scottish accent
