101. Author: wee eck Date: Sun 9th Mar 2025. 09:43 So somebody çriticises me for watching the highlights and somebody else for only watching the last 20 minutes. I`ve seen a lot more of Scotland than this match and they`re the most exciting team we`ve had in years. Reply |
102. Author: widtink Date: Sun 9th Mar 2025. 18:33 I don`t see the problem. Alright we took our foot off the gas.... But we won. It`s the Scotland way. That`s what we do 🤣 Admin ![]() Reply |
103. Author: dd23 Date: Sun 9th Mar 2025. 21:40 Buspasspar, Sat 8 Mar 19:36 That’s been a law for many, many years. I remember and Argentinian player scoring a try that way around the eighties and I think the rule changed after that. As said, it’s a safety concern to prevent the tackler getting a boot in the head. It was a lovely move by the Welsh full back though. Reply |
104. Author: PARrot Date: Mon 10th Mar 2025. 17:10 It was frustrating that we let them back in. Especially the final try. However, we were very close to several more scores. We were by far the better side. No shoogley peg for the manager yet, but isn`t it interesting that the same posters that are always shouting for the Pars managers to be sacked are doing the same here. TF I don`t have to live with them. ![]() Reply |
105. Author: Luxembourg Par Date: Mon 10th Mar 2025. 17:34 PARrot, Mon 10 Mar 17:10 Except we kept trying to force through the middle, even after the defence had set. Couldn’t get through against England, nor Ireland, but persisted against Wales. We look great when we are pinging the ball out wide to runners, but we get sucked in to the grind and eventually make a mistake or have the ball held up (twice). Guaranteed we will try the same against France and get nothing at all through the middle. ![]() Reply |
106. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 10th Mar 2025. 17:47 Some commentators thought if Russell had still been on the pitch he would have been more likely to opt to go wide. Apparently he asked to be subbed as he was cramping up. Reply |
107. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Mon 10th Mar 2025. 18:10 Luxembourg Par, Mon 10 Mar 17:34 Our backs are an incredible threat, was strange them not going wider more when in the 22. Parrot - people are allowed to voice their opinions on any matter, just because they believe both Scotland and the Pars are underperforming at the same time doesn’t mean they cant then call for change at the same time.

108. Author: Buspasspar Date: Mon 10th Mar 2025. 18:16 Good Post Lux The number of times we lose the ball when trying to force through the middle or try the maul .. I think is just down to the fact that we don`t have the power/size/weight .. we are very dangerous when we run from deep but don`t quite have the grunt required to take on the big boys dd23 Thanks for that info .. I never knew that .. Also that is the first time I have seen it given in any game over the last 60 + years We are forever shaped by the Children we once were Reply |
