Phillip Matthews blames that one on the sun shining off the stand.

Makes a change from blaming the officials

10-17, 32mins.

Nah like Eurostar said they are a great 2nd half team. It will be like the match we have just seen Ireland will sweep them aside the 2nd half.

Not necessarily. Ireland have been playing a restrictive game but now have to play beyond that. If they spill too much ball, expect Scotland to counter attack and....get close to Ireland.

Yes, if they have a ten point lead at HT, they have a massive incentive to run riot in the second half. It might prove very difficult for Scotland to play against a team on a mission.

Scotland playing some lovely stuff here - absolutely no pressure on them and you can see it.

For sure, but I think Schmidt will be delighted with a 10 point lead at this point. It's exactly what he would have wanted.

I really hope I'm wrong!

Wouldn't say there's no pressure on Scotland, they're desperate to avoid the wooden spoon.

11 point swing now needed ... massive half for Ireland coming up.

I'd have taken ten point ht lead beforehand. But Scotland have really grown into this, just like last week. Have given ourselves every chance, should be fascinating 2nd half now

It's nearly a shame, it has to come down to the last weekend before we see teams really going for it and playing free flowing Rugby!

Wales are playing well today, but last week they benefited from dreadful referee decisions and even the most keenest Welsh supporter would agree.


They may well win but it wont be recongised by serious rugby people because of last weeks game against Ireland.

Just seen Dan Bigger complaining about the Italy try , he wasnt complaining last week”

Yep, penalty try and two Welsh sin binnings. Barnes was definitely off his game......your post illustrates nothing more than you having no idea about how the breakdown should be refereed and this ignorance has coloured your viewpoint.

It was called by the AR and it was for offside.

All this selective memory on display is confusing. The so called septic ref awarded Ireland a penalty try and two Welsh players were carded for breakdown offences.
