I think somebody jumped the gun there - so determined to get rid of GT.

Hes been bailed out today, come on Eck, we were dreadful for 60 minutes……

A game of rugby lasts 80 minutes.

We weren`t so much dreadful as they played out their skin and we made errors at crucial stages.
They finally ran out of steam and we took over.
Took a lot of character to come back and Toony got the subs right. He earned the win as much as the team did.
Love watching Darcy Graham.

And you still can’t admit we were woeful for 60 of those and Gregors had his chance with this team and blown it a few of them.

If he does win it, it would be a great achievement, but he now has an incredible hill to climb to do it and play like that v France and Ireland and we get a spanking again.

It`s how you play for 80 minutes that matters. Ask Wales. A bonus point win away from home in the Six Nations is a great result. Scotland paid the penalty for not playing for 80 minutes against Argentina in November.

Four wins in a row against Wales for the first time in 99 years!

Wales have been getting humped ( and I don’t mean beat ) for ages. We scraped past them.

Let’s get Franco Smith in. Thanks, Gregor, but we need a change

With a golden generation of players, thats not that impressive!

How many should they have won in a row? What exactly is a `generation of players`? Who brought these players on? Did somebody just dump them in Townsend`s hands?

What is this obsession some folk have with sacking managers. It is rife on dotnet. Ever since I started posting it`s been the hot topic. Now some want rid of Lennon after 11 months.
We are at the top of the league ffs. For a day anyway. Tough having a golden generation when France have one constantly.

15 points down away from home with 33 minutes to go and we won it by 3 points. It`s like the Pars coming from two down and winning by the odd goal. Scottish sports fans must be the world`s worst. There are probably still some who think Finn Russell is an unnecessary luxury.

I knew before coming on here this would be Ecks stance, there is no status quo the man won’t defend (I don’t mean the London rockers as unaware of his position on them). I feel sorry for his partner asking what to get for tea - “well despite having all the right ingredients available it was disappointing and bland last night but let’s do the same again”

You`re on dangerous ground commenting on posters` private lives.

There are lots of `status quos` I don`t defend. Have a look at the Politics Forum some time.

Again, coaches decisions nearly cost us against the weakest team in the tournament. I think they were -86 points before kickoff and yet we scraped by.

We’ve got the best midfielders in world rugby and they basically saved the game for us. The forward selection was wrong, the game plan was wrong and we could well have been defeated. We should have won 3 from 3 and be top of the championship but we’re not.

Most neutral commentators commended Townsend for bringing on replacements before half-time, something which rarely happens.

Wales`s previous record was irrelevant. The coach has to react to the game as it develops and try to turn things round and that`s what he did. Sport is full of `could haves` and `should haves` but we all know it`s the result that matters.

We got it wrong first half but sorted it second half .. was pleased for Wales and their support as they have been though the mill for a wee while now .. Cannot understand why the number 12 did not get a red .. I have seen them given for less .. England film stars were poor once again .. If they had put as much effort into playing as they did trying to influence the officials

We are forever shaped by the Children we once were

Exactly Eck, results matter. During our golden generation GT has led us to less game victories than England and we’ve won the square root of nothing.
