    Dylan Hartley leads England out for the first time as Scotland look to kick on from that disappointing loss to Australia.

    England trying to bulldoze the Scottish scrum but Scotland's scrum doesn't move and get a penalty

    Ball didn't bounce too kindly for Hogg there.
    Big chance for England here now.

    Moore sounds awful...worse than usual

    You'd think there'd be a point of diminishing returns for advertising in one stadium, but RBS don't seem to think so.

    When a tackler is not releasing a ball like that in a ruck, suddenly does, and then the ball squirts out..seems a little unfair

    Did anyone ever point out to you that your signature is misspelled?

    Edit: Sorry not trying to be a dick, just noticed there and surprised that it wasn't spotted so far

    Ford won't see out this tournament as the starting 10. He's still too underpowered for this level of intensity.

    Typical stuff from both these teams. Scotland with plenty of spirit, little skill. England look much the same as they did in the world cup.

    If England continue down this path, well...to be honest Id be looking at tomorrow being a good indicator of the eventual winner
