Beautiful break by Huw Jones, Scotty into the 22. Darcy Graham in! Sometimes a handling mistake creates opportunity as Finn's knock backward there did.

Howzit Paks!


How about that try from Scotland through Graham!


Excellent start from Scotland. Kicking until they. We're happy to run it.


French defence looking mighty suspect already!

French screw up a maul right on the Scot line!


Scottie need a big scrum now...


And they win a scrum penalty.


Everything going Scottie way at the moment

Tasty little grubber from Jellybear, just bounced up instead of holding its line otherwise Attis was in.

Turnover France as Scotty carries itup from their own tryline and they send Le Beep over in the corner. Great strip in the tackle by Anton. There seem to be a discussion between the officials. Try stands, will take a brave official to call back a try involving Anton, eh?

France's second incursion into the Scottie 22 and again it ends with poor execution.


Another Scottie scrum on their own 5m...


And the ball goes to the backs, gets lost and France pounce...


They're checking it


Try stands

Scotland defense narrow, beautifully exploited by France, Attis running it in off Le Beep's kick ahead. Scotty will have to increase their line speed if they're going to be that narrow, you can't be hesitant when you're leaving that much space on the outside.

That's more like it from Scotland!


They were running onto the ball nicely and hitting the French line at serious pace.


They get a penalty and knock it into the corner for a lineout


Lineout...clever move and Kyle Steyn cuts them wide open.


Very clever

No surprise that worked, it's been a hell of a long time since we've seen a team pull something like that - usually it's just pass wide and bash for the line. Kak conversion attempt by Finn. 14-12 France.

Good period of attack for Scotland, Steyn with a strong half break. Scotland for the touchline from the 22, it was very kickable.

Lots of positive stuff for Scotland and the French absorbing pressure for now. One feels the Scots need another score soon if they wanna win.


...I mean, unless they're gonna keep playing the will for the next 40
