Well played Scotland, deserved victory against a truly awful England

Surely this has to be the end of the road for Eddie Jones now. Surely.....

Worst England team I've seen in a long time. Kept expecting them to come alive but it never happened. Scotland should have won more comfortably, last 5 minutes were a bit nerve wracking even though England never got near our line, kept expecting us to do something stupid and end up with another glorious failure.

Depressing. Ben Youngs at his dithering worst and then Dan Robson had a mare. Slade - never worth a spot for me...lightweight. Poor discipline cost us but overall we were just poor...so much for the 6 Nations alleviating some lockdown malaise.

Bit rusty, but short of ideas. Scotland seemed the opposite and deserved the win. Difficult watch without atmosphere, bit like the football...

England were awful and the scoreline flattered.them.
Time to.drop some of the prime donnas.
I've said for a while now Farrell should be dropped.
The Saracens contingent were rusty having played no meaningful rugby, saying that I still think Itoje would walk into anyside.

Best in hand kicking that I have ever seen in any rugby match from Hoggy.
He was quite superb.

We need a decent scrum half though, only weakness in the team IMVHO.
Third choice hooker did well.
