    Scotland gone 2 minutes without conceding. Already a moral win for them.

    How do we feel about the two Aus disallowed tries? I think both could easily have been given. Mad socreline given how the game played out.

    The first was 50/50 call the second one was probably an obstruction but I think they'll feel robbed.

    Australia couldn't handle the conditions and Kurtley Beale's assumption that a kick was going into touch killed them. That try put them under scoreboard pressure and they started to force it as if they were playing in dry weather. England just had to stay in their faces and the errors would come. As they did. Australia have no-one to blame but themselves.

    Scotland solid enough here. The breakaway NZ try gonna be a sickener.

    I'm keeping an eye on it here, they've been very competitive so far. Hogg is lethal.

    Scotland survive a near certain try thanks to a forward pass.

    FFS Scotland knock-on 5 metres from NZ tryline. Watson is off for good too.

    Absolute shocker, guy looked like he was shirking contact before he'd taken the ball, pass was perfect.

    Could be a try and a yellow in the next minute here if Scotland don't pony up

    3-3 but it this might be the best half of Scottish rugby I've seen since they roasted us in the first half this year in Murrayfield.

    Hogg is so lively but he isn't getting enough all. Seymour non-existent. Their front row is not really primed for a match like this but they're not being destroyed.

    Btw for anybody reading this back Doddie Weir is heavily promoting motor neuron awareness. He's a fantastic ambassador and hopefully they can make progress treating the disease. He presented the ball with his sons before the match and it was absolutely lovely.

    Try Scotland from younger Gray. They have an extra man now for 10 minutes too.

    Stuart Hogg was inches away from a legal offload for a try there. 17-22 NZ but Scotland had more of the possession but NZ destroyed them at key stages at the ruck. No Moriarty and Watson and his replacement Hamilton went off early.

    Brave showing but they kinda did what they usually do too often at key stages today.

    Scotland blew so much territory and opportunities in the first half. They'll take a lot from the performance but they could have won that.
