    Can’t believe there’s powers trying to get Italy out the 6 Nations for South Africa. Look what it means.

    Said it before, during, and after the Wales Scotland game. It was a game they should've won. Wales are terrible this year.

    Might be biased as he’s from here, but I think Wayne Barnes is a top top ref. Talking all the time letting the game flow. Remember Collina did the same, they become part of the game without wanting centre stage unlike some in the Scottish league.

    Hogg has been pathetic in this tournament..

    The pass was well on on the inside for a try and he does that..

    Had fuckups in nearly every game..

    Time for Townsend to step down imo . Will be pretty much the same next year.

    Scotland need to be more disciplined.

    We are a team that an elite coach would love to take on.

    Not sure who would take it.

    Townsend has done very well to carry on from Vern Cotter who I was sad to see go. He’s too soft though, the egos in the squad walk all over him.

    No doubt he has taken over from Nigel Owens as the top ref in Rugby. Thought he got all the big decisions right yesterday and allowed the game to flow well.

    Well we didn't get the help we needed to win it all but the Triple Crown was well deserved and some reward for a pretty good 6 nations. I thought that overall was our best performance too. To go out and beat a good Scotland side that convincingly at 26-5 was impressive. The second half in particular I thought we were really good. In fairness to Scotland they defended well for long spells and needed to because we really piled the pressure on.

    Time for a new Captain. Hogg is not a leader.

    He’s a proper * off the pitch. Heard countless stories now and seen it once. Drink always involved.

    Really sad.

    In primary school I got to go to into the changing rooms after a game and interview Cammy Murray.

    Tom Smith came over and gave me his socks. Legend of a guy.
