Just how beautiful was that Scottish uniform in the #SCOvNZL game? If there was a reason for it, I missed it. I just know it was pretty 🤩 photo credit: planetrugby

Scotland Rugby, a thought...
There's as much talent in the Scotland team as just about every other team in world rugby.
So why, we must ask, is this team not finishing other teams off and closing out games?
The answer is surely mental fragility. A lack of a self belief. A national sporting trait engrained in the psyche after years of our sports stars being somewhat marginalised and maligned by a media based largely in another country. 🤔

It’s tough to be torn between your all time favourite team and the team of your ancestors’ land.

What a cracking game from both sides. All Blacks doing what they do best and grinding out a win. Scotland did themselves proud. #SCOvNZL #AutumnNations

Can’t understand why the TV hasn’t even played a replay for Darcy looking like he was tripped #SCOvNZL

@Roadwarrior29 Aye, after the hour we just ran out of steam. Too many mistakes and NZ took over. We should have been out of sight but messed up twice when on their line #SCOvNZL

#SCOvNZL Scotland played well for an hour. Sadly games of RU last 80 minutes. We ran out of energy and started to make too many mistakes. NZ probably just about deserved the win. Frustrating nonetheless.

Ok I don't generally post links from the bird site but this needs to be seen. Doddie Weir before the #SCOvNZL game started. #rugby

So far so good… it’s the hope that kills #SCOvNZL

Watching Scotland is so stressful. I enjoy games that they aren't playing more 😅 #SCOvNZL

Wow wasn’t expecting that fist half from Scotland, hope they can keep it going #scovnzl

#SCOvNZL Superb effort from Alba so far here. Frustrating not to get over at the end but I'd have taken 17-14 after 40 at the start. NZ look there to be beaten.

#SCOvNZL
Awesome defence. Definitely more tries in this game. #rugby.

Talk about capitalising on a Sin Binning!

COME ON SCOTLAND!!!!!!! #SCOvNZL

Take a bow @Darcy_Graham@twitter.com
An unbelievably good finish.

Invited MiL to Sunday lunch forgetting the rugby clashes 😪 Will just have to catch up later. Good luck, Scotland!

Scotland vs All Blacks match hasn’t even started and already @SamBaker’s all, ‘I’m not sure I can watch this…’ Know how she feels.

Gotta feel for Finn Russell 💙.
Unless something remarkable happens against the #AllBlacks, he's in a lose-lose-lose situation.
Refuse to play and he'd have been vilified.
Play and lose when not being with the squad and he'll be vilified.
Play and lose big and Gregor Townsend is vindicated. And Finn, of course, will be vilified, especially by the international media.
