First topic message reminder :

Forget the Tiddlywinks at Twickers, this one’s the proper test match with soaring Scotland taking on their Ivernian cousins.  

Ireland have it all to do on their home turf to keep their championship tilt going, and Scotland have the bit between their teeth to snatch it from them and head into the final round ready to rack up a cricket score against the hapless Italians to try reach top of the table.

Scotland started cold and lost heavily to Wales but now they’ve got their game together, they could be on a roll.  But as their coach has pointed out, their away record in the last decade has been dismal.  That’s the hurdle they have to overcome.  They have the players, the skills, and a successful game plan if they can beat Ireland at their own game at the breakdown.  

Ireland started without a few players like O’Brien, Ringrose, and then lost Furlong, Henderson and Henshaw.  All the replacements stood up - VdF, Leavy, Farrell, Porter, Ryan - and then a couple of them got injured.  But the timing looks good as Furlong, Henderson, and Ringrose are ready to re-enter the fray.  O’Brien could be back for the final round.  

Schmidt has some thinking to do on how he can outwit Townsend - attempting 60-70% possession with constant pick and goes isn’t going to cut it.  Will Sexton have his kicking boots back?   Will yet another midfield continue to weaken the defensive line?   On the other hand, will Russell turn from hero to zero if his looping passes fail to hit their target and Fall into the hands of Stockdale or Earls instead?

Both sides haven’t been shy about scoring, although they go about it in completely different ways.   Let’s see if they can keep it up.

It did touch his fingers. And a knock on that brushed jones' was missed for the first 3 points. Swings and roundabouts

Ringrose with a great break but he needed to pass it to Earls who was away for a try there.

Agree with this. It did not look good especially as Healy looked groggy getting back into position...

Massively frustrating half - Ireland haven't really done anything but lived off our mistakes.

Interception - they happen

Botched 2 on 1 - unforgivable

Botched lineout - unforgivable

Ireland also botched a try when Ringrose did not pass to Earls who was certainly in.

A very even first half for me, Scoreboard flattering Ireland somewhat.

Scotland always risk an interception or getting caught by a tackle. The flip side is chances like jones to hogg which should be a try. The more he aide play together the better you will get at picking the times to lamp it into row z.

I must admit that I was sceptical about Ringrose coming straight back in (lack of options forced this) but he has done very well.

Big shout to Kearney as well who has played very well too.

We just need that wee bit more composure and the game could be turned around

If Ireland score first though I think they'll be too far ahead

I wonder if it would be advantageous for Scotland to swap Laidlaw. He is good with the boot but he is far from being a creative 9 and is not really helping Russell.

I’ve only watched it from the 2nd half and he’s given Ireland a few penalties from rucks. Nothing to Scotland (in the time I’ve been watching). Scotland perhaps need to adapt to the ref???

So Ireland will go to Twickenham on St Paddys day for the grand slam.

We can't blame Barnes. We've got no foundation to work off. We're missing line outs and throwing interceptions.

And now that's two certain scores butcherd.

Another very badly missed opportunity from Scotland. Clinical against England, poor against Ireland. Those chances simply must be taken.

We just can't play away from home at the moment. Total mental frailty when we step outside of Murrayfield. Ireland have been clinical though to be fair and are deserving of their lead

All these poor passes and one on ones landed perfect two weeks ago.

Just shows the fine margin at international level!

Kinghorn deserves that, he has been excellent for Scotland today.

Put down the knitting needles Eirebilly and SecretFly, those grand slam onesies you’re making will have to go on hold!
