First topic message reminder :

So to stop myself contemplating who could be a good replacement for Toonie, I've decided to start a match thread.

Rugby the Scottish way:
Finn Russell does the sublime
Maitland finishes well
Give the opposition field position from the restart

Maitland is proving himself indispensable as a player. Not only solid and reliable but just excellent support and all round play. Darcy has already proved it should have been him against ireland.

Maitland is having a good game, one mistake aside. But Ritchie for me has been quietly effective, and really putting his hand up.

I have to say if Samoa get through this game without a card I’ll be astounded. The tackles are getting more and more erratic

Mmm I'd give them a B minus considering conditions. But no disrespect intended, Samoa aren't the same beast they were so its easier to look good against them.

I agree Ritchie has done well, I'd add Bradbury to that mix too. He's playing like he's got a point to prove.

Decent half - if we keep this up it should be a comfortable BP win.

If we don't we just need to look at the last two games against them to know what happens!

Bradbury's carry just before HT (when it looked liked he knocked on) was huge

Someone needs to give Russell something for his hands at half time. He is constantly miss handling the slippy ball. Wonder if the finger tape would help, he is really struggling.
Pity they didn’t score at the end but it became so ponderous it was easy to defend.
Should finish the Samoans off properly in the second half.

No way Scotland will lose this now... Will get the BP. 

Real question will be. With Samoa having one foot in the departure lounge, will they now just play hard ball, as if they do, may be worth Scotland making sure they protect some of their game players for the final game against Japan, as that looks like winner taking all.

2 tries in 30 mins. Preferably no points conceded too! Then our PD will look somewhat more palatable!
