With excessive delays
try to analyze the Murrayfield clash that pitted the two rivals that are left for England on their way to a possible Grand Slam: Scotland 18 - Ireland 21 . It was no wonder, of course, they both showed that, if you do not wake up, those of Johnno overcome them with ease in the coming weeks. Scotland remained in its normal, while in Ireland, following the attempts to curdle opening Sexton owner and were unsuccessful, Keadney should consider whether it is better to grant the veteran O'Gara the chance to direct the Hibernian World and what is to come to him. A fine O'Gara launched with sticks, sublime shot in the line out (or almost: just missed one at minute 66) and even able to score an essay, breaking the line between Ford and Jackson, even risking their entry by breaking out of the tackle of Paterson.
Scotland took the lead in the first half (ended 9-14), but in his usual style: slow phases, with no capacity to do harm, with a break that he had no continuity or died in a knock-on or a bad pass. Waste initiative, without solving capacity. Sometimes it seems they want to play with 'French', without twigs for it, while paradoxically France is dedicated to playing the style would suit the Caledonians. If options were maintained until the end was because of the numerous penalties committed Ireland (also to your style, there is no way to correct its endemic indiscipline.) But the change of Parks by Ruaridh Jackson had no effect (Parks had to come to the rescue just after the third trial Irish), besides that Blair did not help. The main problem with this team is that players have too bland: they have some talent, but lack of fierceness and determination. Therefore, among the dull and lifeless block, players like Sean Lamont are essential (also Ritchie Gray), and do not understand why Andy Robinson has taken so long to provide ownership. Rory Lawson and Parks also affect your output in a more enthusiastic, but in Scotland always comes out the pathos wealthy and cagey does not play a serious test option to comply with a sterile drop (always manage to postpone any chance of taking the lead on the scoreboard).
Ireland was not much better (some yes, of course), but at least when attacking always carried risk. The first two trials Irish were a clear demonstration of Scotland's defensive mediocrity. In the first, again an error by De Luca (Robinson finally seems to understand, facing the Twickenham clash, that this man may not hold in the squad thistle), which went straight to Rory Best, Sean Lamont which already controlled (again vital center Scarlets), paving the way Heaslip to pose to the oval. The second was worse, the mistakes were many and distributed collectively. First, mutual disastrous in a line out caused by O'Gara, leaving the ball free, and even if they collect, Lamont has just lost and Blair is tackled in the area of \u200b\u200bbrand. Scrum pro-green, and Heaslip that easily deceived the defenders, taking three of them, that REDD can write quietly.
Despite its more powerful offensive, Ireland purged their indiscipline in the rucks, to end fear of a victory that would have controlled more placid. O'Brien improved his previous matches, forming a powerful third line with Heaslip, who is recovering his time low, and a brave Wallace.
