Lineout went from utter dog shit to brilliant in 2 weeks

We pretty much lost every collision. Except his.

I know what you mean but I still don’t like this. We’ve just won a sensational game and put 50 on arguably the best team in the world right now. If we can’t have hope now when can we?

He is one of the most influential mainstays of this team.

I didn’t see much tonight we wouldn’t be able to handle.

Not sure Fagerson on the bench is necessarily a "demotion", it can also be seen as a tactical play. Saffers do it, as do Bath and many club teams. "It's a 23-man game now" we are told constantly by pundits so if that's the case, can we then really label the bench as secondary?

Flatman good too πŸ‘

I’m gonna say it. I like Chris Ashton a lot. Not so keen on Danny Care and Ugo Monye, Chris Jones is vaguely bearable in a geeky way but Ashton speaks genuinely as an elite ex-player and that’s what you want from a podcast. Similar to Beattie.

Hopefully they left behind the supercilious LinkedIn twats who seemingly never tire of telling us how magnificent Dubai is and how shit the UK is.

At a time of war, the BBC publishes a story about parents wishing their son happy birthday.

It’s the 5th most-read article on the biggest news site in the UK.

Britain remains laser-focused on the big issues.

Absolutely, I missed a lot of the intricacies in the stadium because I got a bit "squiffy" but I did get very angry a lot of times and watching it back I can now see why!

Brass neck doesn't even remotely cover it.

I wonder why the "relationship is obviously not what it was" Donny boy? Any idea? Why don't you have a little think about it and come back when you've worked it out. Good lad.

For sure. The Welsh support was unbelievable.

I watched the game back at the weekend and Scotland were really frustrating to watch. Not terrible but consistently making small errors and giving away penalties and territory. However Wales were also much, much better than in previous weeks, I think it’s fair to say.

Should this have been a try? Agony for Scotland Scotland are denied a last-minute winning try against France after a lengthy video review despite the ball appearing to have been grounded.

I would play this on loop all this week in the Scotland changing room. We couldn't really see the detail that well on the big screens in Murrayfield because they are crap quality, but there should've been no excuse for the TMO not to tell Berry to award the try. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/rug...

I don't have much time for Danny Care generally, but I was quite interested in his thoughts on hooking players early and the knock-on psychological effects of doing it. I watched the Wales game back this weekend, I didn't think Max Williamson and Nathan McBeth were *that bad.
