Indeed. Think he only made one pass after 1991.

Looks like being a windfest. As well as the Rugby.

Jones says stuff that's gets us all focused on him in the build up and not pestering his team. If Jones pulled half the stuff that dimes has been fined for, I'd want him fired.

This'un's gonna be disappointing. The amount of silly hype about how 'special' this game is will jinx it.

From both games today, I’m wondering if seatbelt tackles should be downgraded to a free kick

I feel like England can continue to be atrocious and still win this.

Hard to tell just how awful both teams are playing, or if the weather makes this a bit of a write-off?

Yeah - safe to say the weather is winning this one.

I don’t get why both teams are kicking so much in these conditions?

If the weather makes it so difficult to kick accurately might it be an idea not to kick? Unfortunately, we only have a kicking game.

Pretty well managed by england so far. Just the sort of quality one expects in the calcutta cup.

lol, yeah, indeed.

Luckily for England, Scotland seem just terrible. If we don't score a fair few points in the 2nd half with the wind advantage, we can join the piss poor performance club.
