Watch the replay of that scrum, Kellock is too high to provide any support to Low.

Are Scotland going to manage to lose this one?

For the record I don't think it matters whatsoever, but the lads could really do with wins in general. Especially Embra ones.

Scotland conceded in the first minute, been bossed too much at the scrum, and dropping the ball a couple of times too many at the key moments. 

Is it bad that I'm getting kind of bored of watching this team lose when they're better than losing?

What's the point of a TMO who calls passes forward that weren't, but misses a Parisse kick to the head which drew blood?

Pass was marginal. I really don't think the 1st official should overrule the 4th official based on the TV screen though. The only reason he warned Parisse about the boot was because of the screen too - not sure I like that; lends too much ability to govern the game by producers.

I wish we hadn't taken off Heathcote at 48. Pyrgos has looked underpar and having Laidlaw plus Heathcote plus Scott gave us an incredibly strong 3/4 line to take it to the Italians. I understand why Johnson did it but , still , win was more important I think ... plus giving Heathcote SOME faith ...

Congrats Scotland, 30-29 against Italy last minute. Not pleased overall, but win is a win and I'd take that result next 6N in Rome tbh ...

Scotland were poor. We were pretty much destroyed in the scrum. Can't take many positives from it, apart from a couple of decent individual performances. Scott being the stand-out Scottish player.

Scotland made hard work of that, they had a few overlap chances in the second half but always seem to take the ball in to contact, very frustating to watch. Can't understand why Heathcote was taken off so early, he looked to be playing well enough and Pyrgos doesn't add very much when he comes on.

We were really poor. Scrum got anhialated, Low got subbed as a sub and Welsh made an instant difference. If this stupid attempt to swap props about willy nilly continues, everyone behind it should be taken out and shot. Penalty count was atrocious, and they just didnt seem to learn that they were getting whistled off the park. Good width in the first half, but lost all shape when Heathcote got strangely taken off.

Can't agree more Welsh is a loosehead and Low a tighthead.

I wanted to broke my screen when Low came in at loosehead against South Africa while Welsh warmed the bench the whole 80 minutes.
Murray is in steep decline too and Dickinson is a very average scrummager.
Props selection policy is suspect to say the least

Gaaaaaah.

Ok. I can stop clawing my thighs now. What the Farrell happened in our scrum? No one in the pack looked likely to have trouble, on paper at least (maybe Dickinson, but he has surprised me this tournament), but we were systematically destroyed up front. Counter rucking was good, but on our own ball we never seemed secure, particularly once Pyrgos came on.

On the backs, Heathcote looked solid if unspectacular, but all the good stuff came from Scott and Dunbar. We all know Dunbar isn't a 13, but we have a pretty tidy partnership there that will grow with familiarity.

Finally, a massive shout out for Al Stroker - not just for being good today, but for finally living up to the hard man image he cultivates so readily. Next to Scott, he is our standout player from this tour.

Well, that was a let of, we wont win many international games with our scrum being destroyed like it was. 

A very strange decision to take of Heathcote, Pyrgos is an able club player - but not up to International standard.  

Scott has improved hugely since his international debut, with each passing game he looks more and more like an international 12.  I would like both he and whoever plays at 10 to start demanding more ball from Laidlaw, although he played well he does try and control everything from 9.  

All in all this tour has been a useful exercise, at least players like NDL know they have to be playing very well to get back in the side.

Well done Scotland, just one or two points away from another losing streak so consider yourselves lucky. The end of Johnson's honeymoon period is well overdue, you need a coach who knows how to play ball ASAP (Verne Cotter).

Well with the squad left over all we were needing from that was a win - and we got that which is fantastic!

It will be such a boost for the squad having flogged it out the last few weeks.  I know it doesn't mean much but I think it is massive we won.


Scott was our best player (again!!) and I thought Lamont had another good game.  Actually thought Denton did pretty well (stupid forward pass aside) and made some huge carries so not sure where the criticism has come from.

Beattie has been disappointing this tour - I appreciate he's been carrying niggly injuries but we need a lot more from him than he has been showing.

What was most pleasing is that we created scoring chances and looked good with the ball in hand - if we can combine that with parity up front then the future looks bright.

5 months until the next stressful Scotland game....!

I read that and (understandably) thought you'd lost. I then checked the score and saw you'd got a last minute winner!
Last week Hamilton got binned on the TMOs orders even though the ref and linesman thought it was fine - this week Matt Scott had a great try disallowed because the replay suggested it was marginally forward even though the ref was OK with it in live action. If it wasn't for the extended TMO powers these things wouldn't have happened.

Of course if these things had happened to the opposition I would be singing it's praises!
