    Ireland beating Scotland was obviously a massive upset. Great scalp by Ireland beating the future World Cup winners, fair play.

    Conceding no points in 160 minutes of rugby is astonishing, doesn’t matter who the competition is.

    Even allowing for the change in opponent from Ireland to Samoa and Russia, the upturn in attitude and performance has been massive. Especially with the changes.

    Masterstroke from Townsend TBH. However, this is Scotland and a last minute try loss to Japan is pretty much guaranteed. :56:

    From what I'm reading we need 4 more match points than the Japs and we're through?

    The S*n says we need to beat them by 8 points, the Telegraph says 4 match points.

    Rugby is far too confusing.

    I’m never sure how many goals a touchdown is worth.

    I think there is a bonus point available for the losing team if they only lose by a certain margin, so they might get an extra point in the group if we beat them by less than 8 points

    Or the other way? * knows
