    England get away with an awful lot. How did Itoje not give away a penalty there? He was told to leave the ball

    Itoje makes McCaw look like a penalty machine.

    Scots will hold out. They'd die rather than lose. England making no headway.

    Lucky to get a losing bonus pt.

    Does Itoje have dirt on every referee in World Rugby? :confused:

    Yeah and the Scottish lad ripped it off his hands 2 feet in the air. Blatant penalty.

    That lift on May should be remembered like the Henson on Tait one.

    Hogg, Gray, Van DerMerve and Redpath all brilliant today.

    Brace had done a good job of enforcing offside, and it makes a huge difference to England. There game has been built around linespeed they got from consistently getting away with being offside. They're not the same team without that.

    That drop from May might be the game.

    He did that quite early on as well.

    Jesus is this actually going to happen? Are Scotland actually going to win in Twickenham?

    What a story of the game: Russell gets charged down, gathered safely by Hogg.

    Farrell, Itoje and Vunipola have been poor. You'd wonder if the lack of top level club rugby is effecting them.

    Drop goal the right idea - pass was shocking though, gave Russell no chance at a clean kick.

    But he nearly handed the game away by trying anyway... feckin hell.
