Surprise jones has persisted with Joseph he’s no man for the trenches

I think the Irish are far better at schadenfreude than the Germans. Should be our national sport. Keep it up Scotland.

Shocking from Owens, right in front of him, Vunipola lying entirely on the ruck preventing the Scottish players from coming in.

I've a feeling England will score next, even when Scotland get possession, they are struggling to make any line breaks

(really hope I'm wrong)

Robshaw and one of the Scottish lads doing some judo

Lot of English arms around necks in tackles.

You're not asking Nigel to police the breakdown surely?

Free kick advantages are very quick, penalty advantages are much longer and have been longer than what would be there usually

Scotland seemed to gain considerable territory (while still having ball in hand) from where they originally won the penalty. Could have been deemed that they had amassed an advantage from the break.

No change there then.

Laidlaw off - he looks wrecked.

Price is on, Scotland almost guaranteed to throw it away

razorblunt

Yes, ballsy by Townsend. Price can help Russell here, England aren’t conceding penalties Laidlaw isn’t needed. Too slow and England are reorganising easily

Akrasia

Owens is infuriatingly inconsistent. He seems to completely ignore blatant infringements in front of him but will penalise random minor infringements whenever he gets the urge to blow his whistle

that phase of play just indicative of England's day - right idea, poor execution

BBC even did a piece on England's defensive line prior to the game, being offside is their tactic.

Courtney Lawes you idiot.

laugh

Wow was that moronic.

Sephiral

Brainless by Lawes.

Stheno

What was Lawes thinking?

Pudsy33

That's just dim from Lawes

rebel girl 15

Sad to see Tommy Seymour head off

rebel girl 15

Farrell to outhalf, Ford off and Te'eo on

Burkie1203

Thats a red

Peatys

Going for the break there with the shoulder

Underhill......heavens above.

Pudsy33

Probably a yellow

Stheno

Yellow or red?
