K.A.I 36,183 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I know there’s a rugby thread but this deserves a thread of its own. Fantastic performance - I’ve been watching international Rugby about 25-years and I’ve never seen a Scotland team play with that confidence and technique I know they played 40 minutes or so with a man more but there’s still a lot to do Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Reynolds 3,359 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Robbed in the world cup a couple of years ago by a shite ref, have been improving well over the years now - it won't be long before they win the 6 nations. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s coming together nicely for the 6 nations, been building steadily for 3 seasons now. Tell you what though, we’re punching so far above our weight when you consider we’ve only got 2 pro teams. Great result. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandyinroyalblue 16,478 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 After the terrible Andy Robinson Vern Cotter and now Gregor Townsend have turned Scotland into a quality side who play attractive rugby,nice to have a Scottish national team to be proud of.

Clemdog 39,389 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Love backing the side, they've really progressed in the last few years. Wasn't sure about bumping Cotter, but hopefully Townsend keeps it up. That last WC defeat to Australia was as gutting as Rangers losing a big game.

mabawsa 888 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Gregor is a good Rangers man too. Tells it in his autobiography. Maybe could help us out as well! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris182 6,310 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Was at Murrayfield today and loved every minute. What a performance. Absolutely enthralling rugby. The red card helped but we ruthlessly tore them apart. Doesn't make up for the World Cup but it's bloody sweet. We've England and France at home this year in the six nations although the Ireland and Wales away games will be equally tough. Really strong Six Nations Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dummiesoot 16,006 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 All done with still some of our top players out, including of course Hogg's late pull out. We do have a bit of depth now to compete regularly. We also have one of the most high profile players in world rugby playing in Glasgow. Hogg may even be regarded as the best player in world rugby at the moment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcbear 10,918 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 We could not buy a try a few years ago but now seem to be scoring at will, it was frustrating because we were knocking on the door and playing quality rugby but could not convert it into wins, it now looks as if the hard work has paid off and will be serious contenders for the six nations if we keep up this form, the attitude / professionalism and will to win is immense.
