Shabby start by Scotland but got tighter after the Tonga try. Bonus point by half time is well on the way to job done anyway.
Still feels like that first England match red card was a more exacting standard than off field checks subsequently.

Scotland don't look like a Q final team. Ironically makes me less annoyed. Good in parts but just not consistent enough. Hate seeing missed tackles. 5th try though but as Badger says scrappy.  G

Last two minutes were outstanding... Enough sloppy moments that they'd have been crucified by a strong enough team, but I'll take the 5 points and a decent winning margin.

Kinda makes all the outrage about pools a bit of a moot point.
Did anyone think Scotland would reach the final?
What if they got subbed into England's pool instead of Samoa or Chile then lost to Japan and Argentina?
This way, one of the best 10's in the tournament gets to his club quicker 😉

Not trolling just realism.

Oh, realism? Scotland beat England last time out, beat Argentina 52-29 less than a year ago, and won today's game by a sizeable margin despite not playing to recent form. Bit of banter is fine but you're just coming across as petty.
Let's enjoy Wales Aus.
On that we can agree.

Not sure what's petty about pointing out Scotland's chances of reaching the final, based on previous performances is nil.
Yes they've been screwed out of an extra match, maybe two, but that's it.
