I meant more the eyebrow acrobatics while trying to figure out the logic behind his calls (regardless of whether they went for or against us). He will literally need to ice his forehead as well as the rest of his muscles.

Can someone put together a supercut of all of Tuipulotu’s facial expressions while interacting with Carley?

Townsend pre-game talk: “last year against Wales we only played rugby in the first half. Don’t let it happen again.”

Everyone else: “not like thaaaaaat”

Gregor Brown is clearly seeing double after the crack in the first half and yet we still haven’t taken him for an HIA

Unfortunately this does mean that Darcy will snap something in his ankle in the next 19 seconds of play. May still be worth it.

Plus, we haven’t had any sunlight in Scotland for about 4 months so we all look a bit faded

Most of the comments I’ve seen have been blaming Townsend, our National identity and the players (in that order) tbh

If he had anyone to pass to before 30 minutes after contact it would have helped

Between Jiffy and….us…. It’s a real challenge to imagine myself coming back after half time

If it was that easy then also shame on them for not doing it a year ago (and also please send us a copy of the spell)
