Do you know what’s a shame? That Bill McLaren didn’t get to commentate on that Rhys Carre try.

Followed, obviously, by an Eddie Butler poetic montage.

Remember the first week of the 6 Nations when Scotland fans were calling for Townsend to go, and Borthwick was building a team that looked like World Cup contenders?

Giving up a cheap late BP to throw away the title would be very Scotland

Wouldn’t be modern test rugby union without the officials taking it upon themselves to decide the result

That’s why Josh Adams is a winger, not a centre…

Heating oil prices have more than doubled in the UK since war broke out: that’s 4.5m people living off gas grid, no they haven’t all got Agas, and in places like Cumbria and Scottish islands that’s a lot of anxious pensioners. (Difference with post-Ukraine is oil as well as gas spiking this time)

Don’t bother with any analysis at half time, lads.

Just show the Carre try on loop.

Earlier I heard Rory Stewart on the radio talking about attempts to replace the Islamic Republic of Iran with a β€˜Liberal Democratic’ government.

I hope he means Ed Davey on a unicycle.

Leadership. That was the difference there.

We have none.

None in the squad, none in the coaching staff, none in the boardroom.
