What did we learn today: 1. SA are the best team in the world for a reason. Even not at their best, ridiculous power from 1-8 & 16-22. And 12. And 13. 2. Scotland can handle the power game. Just not at scrum time 3. Sione Tuipolutu is the best 12 in NH

7/1 split shows you don’t “need”to change your ten just cos you have a 10 on the bench. Rugby is a simple game. If you have squad of discipled beasts who understand how you are expected to play.Throw in a few rolls Royce& ur set. SA the GOAt? Innovative. Brutal. Unyielding 🐐

Dave Flatman class on comm today. Perfect balance of game insight and humour. Loved it. Nick Mullins on hand to control proceedings. Pure class

George Horne superb. Rory Darge and Matt Fagerson got through a power of quality work. Gregor Hiddleston could be Scotland starting hooker from 6N if he carries this form on. Ridiculous handling and vision from the back 3. Big statement win in round 1

When was the last time a 20 year old had this influence on the game as a whole? Henry Pollock is proving that if you’re undeniable, you will be picked.

Fair play. If this didn’t get you excited, don’t bother. Head to B&Q this weekend or mow the lawn. If it did, you’re in for a treat.
