We lost this lovely lady yesterday. She was a wonderful Mum, Granny, wife, sister, friend and physio and will be missed by all who knew her. Thanks for everything Mum!ππ₯²
Two legends that are fighting the good fight against MND and Parkinsons. Doddie and Sir Billy, you are truly inspirational!

There will be an inquest and so there should be but
@Scotlandteam
were beaten by a team that played brilliant attacking rugby in first half and showed guts in the second roared on by an incredible crowd the day after their country was hit by a Typhoon. Well played Japan ππ
So

5 players for the rearranged
@SixNationsRugby
match against France on Friday as that is all they have been paid for!! Six Nations and PRL, hang your heads in shame!! Money talks even in a pandemic!
#scandalous
Group stage over. Ireland and France win their group and get a team who just put 90 on Italy and the reigning World Champions respectively. England win their group and get a team who just lost to Portugal. That seems equitable!!!π³

17 years ago the one on the right came into this world 11 weeks early and weighed 2lb11oz and, as a result, the one on the left needed 8 pints of blood!! Happy 17th Gabi, my wee premie baby!

So Murrayfield has run out of beer for the

match!! Are you kidding me?? Queues were awful before the game and now they have run out of beer!

A stadium that normally caters for 67,000 canβt deliver a match day experience for 16,500!! What a joke! Shame for fans paying huge amount and for staff having to deal with disgruntled fans.

#LionsRugby
So Italy get a man sent off and, because it was the reserve hooker, they have to lose another player so that a front row player can come on for uncontested scrums??

Proud to be taking this special piece of silverware home for the first time since 1983 after a sensational comeback from this group of players.
Huge thanks for all your support this campaign. Enjoy your night

There has been a lot said about this
@rugbyworldcup
draw not being fair but nothing says it as much as two quarter-finals looking like being France v SA and Wales v Argentina!! Bonkers π±
Itβs taken a lot of searching but I have found a positive from yesterdayβs gameπ³. If you are going to have a shocker, better to do it against Ireland rather than Samoa or Japan!π

game is on!πππ come on

Tough one to take for

but discipline and not being ruthless enough is what cost us the game. Some sublime rugby in 1st half but huge missed opportunity.

@lionsofficial
prop Tom Smith sadly passed away earlier today aged 50.
A hugely respected player, Tom will be greatly missed by everyone associated with rugby in Scotland and throughout the game.
All our thoughts are with Tom's family and friends at this time.
To be clear,
@Scotlandteam
being 19-3 down at halftime has nothing to do with Wayne Barnes! Itβs all down to us!! Huge improvement required.

If conceding 55 points to a tier 2 country does not force fundamental changes to age group rugby in Scotland, what will?? Itβs broken. It must change. I feel sorry for the players who have been let down, itβs not their fault.
#embarrassing
This is so wrong. A headbutt is a headbutt irrespective of provocation and amount of contact. Sends out a terrible message

Happy 80th Birthday to this legend. Great have a couple of pints with my Dad in The Fish with family and friends. π

Thatβs a pumping!π± We tried to avoid losing rather than win it. Big selection calls to make as we need to change tactics and team to go and win 3rd test.

VIDEO EXCLUSIVE: England coach Eddie Jones being verbally abused as he arrived in Manchester on Sunday after rail journey from Edinburgh. Disgusting after he was good enough to pose for photos. Now says doesnβt feel safe on public transport. (Warning: contains offensive language)
After the uncertainty of yesterday, leaving hotel for the game with equal measures of excitement and nervousness! Huge game for both teams.
