well thats a relief then, all the other possible winners of this years 6 nations got beat this weekend leaving the door wide open for England, well done the Scots.
Half of our team was injured, the other half was drunk, there was no way we did something interresting. But we're hurt (losing against Scotland hurts a lot ), and we'll need to get our revenge against.... the Scots' closest neighbours by example
Mood: Channel Swim is now a (bad) memory not a dream
I was a tad excited watching the TV, well done Bonnie Jockland, bloody fantastic and long overdue and whatever people say about France being not at full strength etc, that's the game and our tiny little Scottish nation have turned over the 6 Nations and World Cup favourites......in true Scottish nature though, we now think that we are going to win the world cup....''we're on the march with Alleys army'' springs to mind.
Anyway...come on you Jockos, it would be great for the game/championship if we were able to string a few good results together. Not sure about the Irish at home against Italy, Welsh were out to lunch and I thought the score flattered England a bit, but they're now in the driving seat towards a grand slam.

Yep, youse boys played a blinder.
Sort of agree with you about the score flattering England a bit, but it seemed to me that 'first match nerves' and a little bit of rustiness affected every team, we certainly let in a soft try. It looked for a while as if the Welsh might still be in the game at half time but ultimately the power and strength of the English pack just ground the Welsh forwards down and let the floodgates open in the last 20 minutes, so it may not have been a truly spectacular game but in the end we did deserve that margin. As you said - that's the game
