    Amazing. And denying England the LBP could be huge in terms of standings at the end of the championship.

    Scotland are going to be a huge challenge in two weeks time. Maitland was outstanding.

    Scotland now have 2 weeks of thinking they're world beaters while england have 2 weeks of self doubt

    Great set up for Ireland's grand slam ambition

    Prediction: Eddie Jones puts out a 2nd string against Ireland in Twickenham to devalue the slam.

    Only partially jokin

    Agree with the first point, England will be very hard to beat last game in twickenham

    Looks like that’s it. Pity. Was hoping for a winner takes all grand slam playoff on paddy’s day. Ireland to win by a drop goal.

    Pity this result, I think
    England will do us on paddy’s day now, we will win championship
    Though

    Can't believe there are people portraying this as bad for Ireland.

    England being demorialised doesn't make them more likely to beat us on Paddy's day.

    In any event, Scotland probably just handed us the six nations. Unless of course they beat both us and Italy with bonus points and come up with a greater points difference.

    England to lose whatever the scenario is always the most favourable option
