What a game. England are a good side, inconsistent but can threaten the best teams in the world on their day. Scotland are a consistent side and consistently keep the best teams in the world on their toes. If Scotland continues to play this style of rugby and continue to build and develop players they will be a threat come RWC in Australia. From a All Blacks supporter
Love seeing us take advantage of England's current slump. It won't last, they'll be back before too long once they get proper management sorted out. But very very happy to take full advantage in the past 5 years. 4 wins and a draw ... if only we could get that sort of result against the mighty Irish!
Be fair to yourselves, this hasn't been all down to bad England performances, which, granted, our firm over the last few years has been poor. But Scotland have been on the up for a while now, get Scotland the credit they deserve
Russell's crossfield kick to put VDM in for his 3rd try is so well executed, but his 2nd try is all his own work - the winger backs himself to beat the ENG defense but ends up absolutely destroying them. When you're 6'4 and built like a brick shit-house that is 5 meters beyond any defender before he's even realized you've slipped the tackle, you're gonna be a problem all day for any opposition. He's a class act. Congrats to SCO from an IRE supporter. 4 Calcutta Cups on the bounce is a great achievement, regardless of how well or badly ENG plays.
He's overrated is what he is. These tries came from his midfield, an England mistake and his fly half. If he couldn't finish then he shouldn't be playing wing in international rugby.
@@beno8983 yes, that was a good try. But average players can still score good tries. Average players can still do good things. There's plenty of English players who I think are overrated who have done great things. So yes, he's overrated
@@michaelbaker7499 Ha Ha. There isn't an English player in the squad that can do what VDM and Finn Russell can do. Whi was the last English winger who scored a hat trick of tries against Tier 1 opposition? I'll wait.
Ireland are the best in the north. But love watching six nations. All teams have an expansive game. Gone are the days where it was always 10 man rugby. Great to see rugby evolve. Last round will be epic.
I hope Scotland beat Italy. Having said that i have been impressed by Italy this year. They have played some open expansive and entertaining rugby. Scotland will have to concentrate in Rome. They have beaten us there before. Nic Berry should be apologising to the rugby community in Europe. That ball was grounded and he overruled the video referees. Why, because he called the on pitch decision wrong!!! If Scotland beat Italy then we could have had a championship decider in Dublin. Still think Ireland are too strong for us especially in Dublin!
great win Scotland, your experience really showed today, i just don't understand England's selections sometimes, most top tier teams play the same players week in week out, hence they know each other well & win or lose they just play better, England however are forever swapping & changing players these past few years, i get players need experience but that's what substitutions are for so you can see how they play whilst giving the player experience, you can't do it internationally as there are not enough matches to get it right compared to the league were you do have matches to experiment with, even then there comes a point were you play your core team consistently, ooh i dunno i just feel that england have a long way to go before they get it right.
And Graham still out, Adam Hastings never being fit, British Lions Caps like Harris, Price, Watson, Sutherland not even considered, Paterson and Rowe last 2 weeks fitting in like they have dozens of caps. If only we had such front row depth. I worry we are underachieving due to years of failure having a psychological hurdle we can't cross.
He scores one try off the back of good would by his midfield. He scored one try off the back of sloppy handling by the opposition. He scores one try off the back of good vision and a great kick from his fly half. And all of a sudden he's the greatest wing in the world? Don't be ridiculous. He wasn't even the best wing on the pitch or the best Scottish back. He's an international wing, if he can't finish opertunities like these he either shouldn't be playing international rugby or he shouldn't be playing on the wing. This is as ridiculous as hype around Henry Arundell in the world cup.
@@provyd possibly Daily. He competed well in the air when chasing high balls, put in some clever kicks, was influencial in attack. And when he made that chip through and tried to play it back onto the Scottish player to win the lineout was a super peace of play, and an example of great rugby intelligence. I also think Tommy Freeman had a good game. And in both cases they had a better all round bank game. But, I'll admit I'm biased. I didn't really pay much attention to the other Scottish wing, and am prepared to be persuaded that he played better than the English wings.
Such a shame they were robbed of a win against France
As were Scotland last round.
@@padraigocobthaigh1770yeah against France?
France robbed Italy too with the waterboy tactics😂
7 years of pain for England Vs Scotland only 1 victory in 7 years for England 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@chickenwingsally132 no they escaped one against wales to be honest
Still rewatching highlights regularly from the last 7 years. Just basking in this period of rugby, I can't believe it will last
Russell's chip/kick for Merwe is a parallel of the pass to Jones in 2018 in its skill
What a try by scotland with redpath breaking the line and running forward. A true sedberghian first IX player! Up the Browns
The passage of play from 6:20 leading to the try was an absolute roller coaster!
Wow! Well done to both teams. This was a really good match to watch. Love from Cape Town, South Africa
Always a good atmosphere with these two countries
This is one of those game highlights I am gonna watch in repeat for years to come, from an italian!
Even Duhan's yellow card was kinda badass.
Any hit on Farrel should award MotM

Agreed, we better enjoy it while it lasts.
What will be will be...boys .
What a player VDM !!!
when I played rugby Duhan would have been congratulated for that tackle !!
Exactly. I stopped playing back in the early 90's and those kind of tackles were common place back then!!
Even in today’s game a yellow was harsh.
So good. I really like Scottish rugby

Well done Scotland. You outplayed us there for sure.

Get it right up yer.
So proud of Scotland in this years Six nations that game with France could now cost us a lot now

6:25 someone needs to edit in the Benny Hill Theme..hilarious! What a game!
Hey there is the Wales crest in the thumbnail 😮

Wales / Italy fighting it out for the 🥄
vd Merwe showing where he was born with that tackle ...brute force 😂😂...well done Scotland ...u was robbed against France😢
What tackle are you talking about?
what is the name of the music for the 2nd try of VDM ? Thanks
It’s gonna be a Scots/Irish lions team👍
Only van de merthe should be picked.
You mean Irish/South African/New Zealand/Scottish?
7 Years of Pain for England 😂 England have only one Win in 7 years and a Draw vs Scotland 😂
Shocking dession aginst the french
What a try!!! 6:21 was that crossed kick gone wrong done in purpose?? It totally played out !! 🎉
Well played Scotland
A Nation with x9 as many registered players to choose from...loses 4 in a row. Wow.
Wales??????????
Be nice too dee England beat lreland be tough
And pigs might fly 😜😆
@@donym6605hehehe
Duhan, kom huis toe boetie
Made in South Africa.....exported to Scotland for
Exported to Scotland and made there actually, South Africa gets zero credit!
He didnt want to be bothered by SA politics and quota kak
They'd love to have him. He'd fit right in with the way they play I reckon.
Ruth Davidson is a trout
Scotland's backline is shit hot at the moment. Nice to see a settled, nailed on backline. England's dream 😂
And Graham still out, Adam Hastings never being fit, British Lions Caps like Harris, Price, Watson, Sutherland not even considered, Paterson and Rowe last 2 weeks fitting in like they have dozens of caps. If only we had such front row depth.
I worry we are underachieving due to years of failure having a psychological hurdle we can't cross.
Why do I get Homelander vibes lol
I'm happy England lost. The best team when ever England is playing is always the opponents.
Well done to the waterboy!! Ruining the match!!! Should be cited
Love too see the french losing
They did not lose.
this a video

Are you ok Michael ?
@@eilidh771 yes, thank you. You?
Someone needs a hug. Who is a better scoring winger right now?
So who do you think was the best wing on the pitch on Saturday? And why?
@@provyd possibly Daily. He competed well in the air when chasing high balls, put in some clever kicks, was influencial in attack.

Finn Russell is the most over-rated 10 in INTERNATIONAL rugby (games between nations) in the game. Discuss...
@@helpmaboabb yes
@@helpmaboabb Best not to engage with the mentally inferior mate
@GaelicGlory The clarity of the arguments is unmatched. I think we can say the point is carried. Finn Russell isn't very good.
I beg to differ 🤔
