Scrappy start

decisions

I think that scots have a chance if they can get the scoreboard ticking in the first 15.

They definitely have a good chance. But I think England will edge out a close match in the end.

Scotland won't get a better chance to beat England, they are vastly more experienced.

Scotland not retaining possession - should have been able to keep that ball instead of turning it over

Agree completely - Scotland team has twice as many caps as the English team.

Nice 5.1 sound from BBC.... its like I'm there

Two bad teams.

George Hamilton on rte. the man is an absolute clown. Knows nothing about rugby. Its embarrassing .

Poor Frankie must be thinking who is the small idiot next to me.
Off to bbc with me.

rebel girl 15

Unlucky, had the distance, not the accuracy

mar-z

Farell missed penalty, wonder what it will do to his confidence?

irishbucsfan

Scotland haven't a hope of doing anything decent with these half backs on the pitch.

thomond2006

Farrell misses a long range attempt.

Crowd should show some decorum and STFU.

I lasted 2 minutes with RTE, in watching it on the BBC as well

Whats with the crowd booing?

Bad form.

Game littered with mistakes. Parks is there for his kicking... needs to sort it out.

decisions

Scrappy start, neither side seem to be able to do much with ball in hand.

What's the blue stuff on some England players' kit?

Crowd should do whatever the hell they like

mar-z

While crowd booing is poor form, it seems nearly to be a uniquely Irish thing now to have quiet for the kicker.

I prefer when the crowd clap if they do anything.

It's from the RBS logo on the pitch

Kick, kick, kick, kick, kick...

Those English shirts are quite stretchy.

Its the dye from the RBS logo on the pitch - Park needs to sort out his kicking quickly, some shocking kicking.

I wouldn't mind it so much if either team were kicking well!

I am pie

Parks playing fantastically......



.....for England.


Pretty poor stuff all round. England should improve, Scotland as always look below par at 9 & 10

Jesus this is awful. Englands aggressive line speed is about the most entertaining thing.

Conchir

Even that scrap hasnt fired up the crowd. The Sweet Chariot is ringing around Murrayfield louder than the Scots...

Trying to remember why I was looking forward to this one.

I predict a boring game with occasional punch up to keep me awake.

Complete disaster of the lineout from Scotland there

Munster07

Hon Scotland!

mar-z

Ughhh commentators, England putting the pressure on so it should be there penalty.

No thought that the pressure could be from illegal scrummaging.

Saying that maybe the ref was wrong, not near an expert myself.

That's me to bbc now!

Scotland all over the place - simple enough catch, and they mess it up between them.

Farrell knocks over the penalty 3-0 England, and they deserve it tbh

Pat yourself on the back Mar-z.. 22 mins is an achievement!

This is a shocking start for an opening game -I've seen better rugby at the schools Senior Cup.

thomond2006

0-3 Farrell penalty.

CiaranMT

"Acappello"

Any time Strettle is in view: "Ashton on the ball"

Complaining about the booing...

Denton is Gray apparently...

Shut up George :mad:

I am pie

Mother of god, this is a rotten game so far

thomond2006

Not the first time Dowson has messed up a restart!

decisions

Between bbc ref bashing and general englishness and rtes general muppetness...

corny

Anyone know how many knock ons theres been so far?

I just wish bbc was a lot better rather than just a bit better.

rebel girl 15

England 70%, Scotland 30% terroritory

Fantastic attacking platform for Scotland, and the ball goes loose

rebel girl 15

England won't be happy giving away a penalty straight after scoring

rebel girl 15

3-3 Parks for Scotland
