Great result, credit to Scotland , 3 tries against England at Twickenham is good going, but England just dominated today 😎

Slow and sluggish eh?

In fairness they were until today.........brilliant today though great to see England playing to their real potential.
Josef was on fire.

England v Ireland has the potential to be a cracking game.

Surprised that Ireland lost to wales yesterday , had them down for a win

I hope so, if Scotland can show the form they did against Ireland then we'll have a chance. Englands amazing run has to end at some point so why not against Scotland

I think England are being very underestimated here. In most games they have been down on the score at half time but their strength and brutality shows well as the game progresses. I still think they have a very good chance of the Slam.

It might be the head ruling the heart, but I reckon Scotland have a great chance, and are cracking value at 9/2.

england have been poor in all 3 games despite w inning them. Scotland have got great attacking options and defend for their lifes when they are under pressure. I forecast a historic win.

Scotland win. England have been poor, slow and without flair.

Is the record of x wins on the bounce becoming a millstone? They appear to be almost playing with a mindset of don't lose rather than one of go out and win.

The English half backs are, IMO, the weakness in the team.
Ali Price and Fin Russell are nippy opportunists and will keep them guessing.

Now mark the rustic banger fed, the trembling field resounds his tread, clamp in his wealy neave a ball, he'll mak it whistle, then arms and legs and heads shall snead, like taps 'o' thistle.

Aye, that's exactly what I was thinking

Nothing like an Irish team like more than spoiling a party, and I think they'll be really fired to stop England beating the all black's record and it promises to be a cracking game. I think it'll be a stop start affair as they look to stop England moving the ball but I think (hope) England will have too much over the 80 minutes to come through, win a grand slam and claim the record

 

[Tashyboy]

Apparantly Nicola Sturgeon wants the game to be replayed as the Majority of scots did not want that result.

I would hate to see this England team eclipse the AB's record of 18 consecutive wins especially as they haven't played them and I don't think they deserve that record. I know they can only beat what's pit I front of them and fair play to that but I hope no one gets carried away and hauls them as great. This England team is good but it's not great.
IF they keep up this form and go on to World Cup glory in 2019 then they will deserve the same sort of respect. The AB's haven't lost a game at home since 2009!
