Teams


TBC





Furbank; May, Joseph, Farrell, Daly; Ford, Heinz; M Vunipola, George, Sinckler, Kruis, Itoje, Ludlam, Underhill, Curry

Replacements: Dunn, Genge, Stuart, Launchbury, Lawes, Earl, Youngs, Devoto

Surely not straight applies both ways ...

Shocking officiating that should have been a scrum to England ...

Shoveling ****

Sinkler on the ground when he ripped that

Clear penalty for the rip from Sinckler gone missed. Ref missing infringements left right and centre for both teams

Lucky boy Sinckler.

Should never have been in that position though ...

Ref's given up with the line-out

Scotland playing all the rugby in this game

Outstanding from Hogg to do that in these conditions.

Arrgghhh Heinz...

Why are Scotland allowed dodgy lineout throws

Well played by Hogg, JJ just not there

Heinz is having a shocker this half.

I’ve got a comb.

Anyone want to join me in a fight over it?

Kick further infield you idiot ...

Think I may have a snooze

Don’t worry, Young’s will come on a show everyone how it should be done

The length Youngs kicks,, it will go dead every time

Cant remember a game this bad since Ireland v England in 2013.

The hardest working man in Scottish rugby has come on to save the day

England needed that penalty. Desperately need to get out our own half.

England have no leadership, would Martin Johnsons teams when he was captain keep kicking the ball away?

Play territory and stick it up your jumpers

Frak brainless.

6-3 might win this

This is abject game management from England.

How dumb is Ford to keep kicking high?!

FFS - stop kicking the ball out on that side ...

This match showing why the best team doesnt always win the 6ns and why bonus points isn't a way forward.

Abject game - its not the fault of the players

Brainless over coached rugby from England.

Think for yourselves.

Somebody needs to start playing the benny hill music

God England are a million miles from "the best side in the world"

England keep kicking the ball out on the full what the hell is wrong with them.

Brainless isn't the word for it

England need to get Farrell into the game. Get Devoto on at 12 with Farrell at 10.

Should have been a pen for the scrum ...

Hey, it bounced first

Hooray -didn't kick it straight out for once ...

If ever there was an advert for summer rugby ......

works both ways

Wow what a game...

Danny Wilson's tenure as Scotland forwards coach has been abject failure - our lineout has been awful for the last year

Maitland is very very dire

Dont you just throw it to 2 in these conditions??

The only fair result would be 3-3

England need to use their bench impact here. Launchbury will have an impact in these conditions.

True

I’m getting Digby Brown onto him.

I’m hoping it will matter to them!
