Time now for England to show some spunk and need to react quicker.

Scotland are moving the ball first chance with quick repetative passes. - Reminds me of the famous Spurs side of the early sixties 'Push and run'.

Scotland are also making their own luck. Think 21 to 15 to England will be the final score at days end! ;) ;D ;D

Mind this is just what England wanted and needed in their build up to the World Cup. Different aspects to couteract against.

Will also put the ability of Martin Johnson to the test too.

The defences were brilliant on both sides, this in turn cancels out any tries being scored

WHOT WOULD YOU KNOW ABOOT RUGBY  :X :X :P ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Well England dropped the defensive line out to couteract the quick passing of the Scots, which obviosly worked and nullified the chances of a try. However, this in turn meant it limited the English chances of intercepting, and closing the Scots forward which in turn nullified the English chances of getting tries. So hence a dullified game.

However, it augers well for the future I guess. Especially England as they needed to work this out ... Live the line out Andy Robinson used to put up when England maager, and was rebuilding - or trying to - and English side. Ashton got him / us out the crap then.

I see it more as they hadn’t the nous to explore each others weaknesses.

[just ask me]

none of the teams have to tools to unlock a defence the only way a try was going to be scored was by a interception or by a mistake   imagination  and creative play definitely wasn't seen

True. Like I say it was a needs - be Nullyifying tactical game. Neither side deserved to win in reality. But it was a shrew, and clever and vastly improved nullifying Scottish side that played hard and as a team. They also showed the traditional passion that England lacked.

away ya sassanach yi ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;Dcome on scotland

 

A sassanach is a Scotsman from the Lowlands's. From the Jacobite /Cambell era etc.

Yes some now try to place it upon the English saying that they are also from the lowlands, which is true of course compared to higher grounded places.

So I suppose in that, then then all from Holland are Sassanachs lol!   :P ;D ;D

Mind got so now that even some say same when Googled.  

 

[Roland]

So it was the term the Stewarts etc. called the Campbells etc.

Mind got a few Campbells down here now and thaey are right sassanachs lol ;D ;D ;D
