In more great news for Scottish men’s rugby, they will be travelling to Argentina, South Africa and Fiji on consecutive weekends in the off-season next year.

To sum up:
Or, say, the ten minutes before each half he sends them out for...
"Rugby is an 80 minute game," says Gregor Townsend for the umpteenth time after his Scotland side lose a game by switching off for a large part of it.
Maybe he should have told the players that at some point during the coaching sessions during his lengthy tenure in charge, eh?

The Argentina coach was pissed and did something about it 5 subs was a big call. Townsend sat on his hands in denial. When the coach is scared to react that's when they have to go

How many times have Sco cruised clear & dominated their opponents - only to then decide they’ve had enough of playing for today and watched as their opponent fought back to a win…? I’ve lost count. It’s awful stuff and while players carry some blame, Toonie has literally NEVER solved that problem.

Losing to Argentina isn't even the issue, they're a serious team with some big wins this year. Being 21-0 up against anyone and then doing NOTHING in terms of adjustments as you watch them come back into the game like that is fucking gross negligence

Toonie really saw his forwards getting absolutely spanked, looked at his bench, saw two South African units there, and said “send on the winger”

Hmm
Fully expect Arg bench to affect this game, as we'll have used ours up by half time

Hmm
Typical Scotland that we can finally get decent looking set piece even without first choices, then shit the bed in almost every other facet of the game in that second half.

If we didn't do player ratings but rather pass/fail I think only Ashman and Dempsey get a pass there?

That sound you can hear is Scottish rugby fans crumpling up their World Cup draw permutations.
How many implosions is this team allowed before someone’s held to account?
