So happy to see Dave Rollo at Murrayfield today to celebrate Murrayfield’s centenary year. Not only a Scotland and Lions legend but he taught this Tighthead all he knows. I will forever be indebted to Dave for his time, enthusiasm and friendship.

Farrell is taking at least 2 10’s to Australia. Both Finn Smith or Prendergast will need Finn Russell there to guide. He will go.

I just need people to settle down about Finn Russell. Scots fans wanting him out the team, other fans saying he shouldn’t go on the Lions tour. Settle down, have a think and then don’t comment. Without him, Scotland are not the team we know and love. He will be wearing red this summer.

Incredibly proud of Molly Poolman and Adelle Ferrie and journeys they have been on. I’m sure they will get their international caps very soon! scottishrugby.org/fanzone/meet...

My friends do like a troll. Gatland or Howley would be another expensive mistake. Yes, I will continue to blame the coaching as we have a poor if not non existent attack,

Tonight was a joke Edinburgh Rugby. This result should move the SRU to do the decent thing to a coach whose jacket is already on a shaky nail. Can’t score a try after being camped on the 5 meter line of a 13 man Zebre. Not….Good…..Enough

You are right, I don’t agree.

Pleased to be invited back onto @caolansrugby.bsky.social podcast, even though the discussion was difficult after today’s result!

People seem to be blaming everything on Welsh rugby as a whole, you really need to focus on the coaching decisions. Attack was out dated and predictable. Where are all the Welsh players in form??
