Have France -3.5 on the spread but sneaking it in the last minutes is sweeter than the money I would've won.

Neither team has played great but I've really enjoyed this game.

Machenaud's especially poo poo, though.

Farrell was pretty hosed for the last 10 minutes.

Did they announce the MOTM in that game?

Well played France, frankly on the first 35 minutes alone you should've won it.goatface posted:Farrell was pretty hosed for the last 10 minutes. No fly-half cover was really really stupid.

CyberPingu posted:If you can tolerate slightly high prices, though the Magners is usually on special. The Three Sisters down Cowgate is probably the best place to watch rugby. Tyma will back me up on that The Oz Bar on Candlemaker Row is pretty good as well, though a little expensive. Watched the Lions tour there and the atmosphere was great The Peartree on West Nicholson Street is pretty good as well and the prices aren't bad. The Three Sisters has the problem that it can be quiet at times if it's not full of stag and hen parties. Just some extra places to watch the games in the future and anyone happens to be in Edinburgh and not at Murrayfield.

If Italy can't win, at least I can count on my French cousins to make up for it by breaking a few hearts

It's thick with retired players and the pub is the size of a small hatchback.

Kay's bar is pretty decent but the size is a bit of an issue if you want to watch the game. I really like the Peartree.

That reminds me of the time I met Geoff Cross. Was at a friend's wedding and he was a school friend of the groom. Absolute chock of a man, got loudly drunk and when the ceilidh started he demonstrated an incredible quality: he physically couldn't move sideways. The dancing had to pivot around him! Great night and utterly hilarious.

Paul O'Connell is out,meaning Dan Tuohy starts and Iain Henderson moves to the bench I'm getting more and more worried about Ireland losing this the closer it gets to kickoff.

Ireland are looking a little toothless here, that's where we miss Sean O Brien.

S'gonna be one of those games, isn't it? Ireland can't attack because they're injury ravaged and Scotland can't attack because they don't know how.

Yep its not exactly a classic so far.

Oh gently caress, that looked painful.

Bollocks. That's probably going to knock him out for a while. Now the question is, can Max Evans remember how to play?

And game over. I don't expect Scotland to come back from that in the 2nd half. What else is on? *channel flicks*

Well, there's still a whole half for Laidlaw to kick more penalties. It was good enough to beat Ireland last year

The darkness drops again but now I know That twenty centuries of stony sleep Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle, And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards the Scottish line?

Hahaha, The RDS crowd were so torn between their innate instinct of remaining absolutely silent during a spot kick, and their overwhelming need to applaud Brian O'Driscoll leaving the pitch.

Well this game was a disappointment... Scotland, yet again, proving to be much worse than their potential
