Because of this lack of depth, Scotland is forced to play in a way that does not grind the victory of the test match after the match won.
Gameplan in Paris was clear. Keep the ball alive, bear the risks, play at a pace and width, and get their talented back line as possible.
“We played with some wonderful endeavors and we were very sharp on the ball, but we were unable to penetrate, enter the back and confirm them really,” said former Chris Patterson in Scotland.
“Scotland played the right way, gave ourselves the best opportunity by keeping the ball alive, playing as quickly as possible. It was not always accurate but the right way to do this.”
Peter Wright, who previously hesitated Peter Wright, said, “I was very proud of the way I played Scotland. They stuck to it, went out and tried to play the game that could have overcome France.
“They went, transported the ball, played with a show. [Blair] Kinghorn was one of its best games. [Duhan] Van Deir Mirawi and [Darcy] Graham seemed dangerous. “
“[Finn] Russell will get a lot of criticism of certain things, but I thought he played well and gave Scotland a chance. The game died enough to try to harm the French. “
The Townsnd team has not been installed to play the percentage and rely on a strong group, because this Scotland team cannot do that.
They have great moments in games, playing your breaths away, but because of the strategy at risk they rarely offer throughout the match, not to mention multiple matches through the tournament.
Their performance in the first half was excellent in Stade De France, but they were set aside with the tired legs and punishing mistakes.
Townsund beat Italy and the worst Wales team for a generation in this tournament. This is it.
Maybe I saw it better.
“In the end, France is a better side,” he said. “There are international players all over the stadium, and they can remove real quality from the bench and this only adds to the rhythm and physical.”
