My mum still isn't on speaking terms with my dad after the loss lol. Great video Squidge, can't wait for the Ireland France video.

"So, how did Wales sneak past Scotland?" Me, who knows very little about modern rugby being old and a bit out of touch - they blew it in the last 20 minutes Squidge, arguably one of the best analysts of modern rugby around today - they blew it in the last 20 minutes Does that make me as good as Squidge? LOL Thank you for all the work you put into these, I am learning a lot about how the game is played now - I stopped playing in the early 80's and boy, the game has changed so much since then! - and it's helped me appreciate the game a lot more as I have been falling out of love with rugby in recent years.

Ok after 9 hours, as a Scotland fan I'm now emotionally ready for this Edit: I wasn't

I think that we can only rationalise that Darcy Graham can minimally control his own mass and reduce the mass of the opposing tackler. This is excellent for Scottish rugby, but ultimately a great cause of concern for humanity as a whole as his powers continue to grow.

Squidge is EXCELLENT at making his advertisements/sponsors very funny and interesting to where I actually don't skip them lol

Thanks for the upload squidge!!!!! You opened my eyes to the tactical side of rugby and all its glory!

Great video, I can't disagree with anything. It's so hard being a scotland fan sometimes. Same as the last few years, a great victory followed up by a stupid loss. We have the team, the talent, the right people in change, we should be better. Well played Wales.

This analysis is really quite something. The point about the centres splitting is an excellent spot.

Taking a moment to applaud the cut to Biggar on the word “smooth”.

I think an interesting point about Kinghorn is that both Hastings and Russell have played with Price for years at Glasgow, I think Kinghorn would have a much better game if Vellacott came off the bench with him as they'll have that chemistry from playing together at Edinburgh

Russell walking off with a smack-able grin is the perfect picture of Scottish rugby right now.

I'm glad you back Biggar's drop goal - I agree he grabbed the points on offer when the team needed them most. There's nothing to say they couldn't have lost penalty advantage AND lost possession in the next passage of play, so..

I love to cheeky little view of ol' Leigh at the end 😍 Miss him so much

The way you guys break the game down is amazing. Must be good fun watching it live with you, maybe you should do a stream for England or at the end if wales manage to cling on

I was so annoyed by scotlands last 20 minutes :D like those continuous knock ons in contact, can't be happening in test level rugby. But also i had the feeling like some key players had bad games. Matt fagerson, their best carrier against england went off at min 30. Hogg had a couple quite shit kicks. And it felt like russell didnt really Russell and unlock the defense at any time during the game, tho this might be due to the double 13s. also couple of dumb penalties Though fair play to wales, really good and smart defense. Good luck further, smash the English :D

Delighted you are back up and running. Great analysis as always

I was in school with jac, it’s strange hearing him brought up in videos but it’s class! He’s such a nice bloke!

Looking forward to your analysis of that lineout Squidge.

Fantastic as always Squidge! Many thanks

Great analysis as usual. Thanks!

lets go, I've been waiting for these the whole week thank you

Also we aren't dynamic enough so many times the back line was just standing super flat not offering any runners, not knowing what's going on. Wasn't just when Kinghorn came on it was the whole game after about 10 minutes. That clip of the last 20 minutes is horrific.

Terrific analysis as always Squidge! That was the catharsis I needed as a Scot 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🥲🤣

This is the best youtube ad I've seen in my life. I haven't seen the rest of the video yet but it's already good.

I'll remember playing actual centers in the center position rather than a wing that have never played center is a good idea.

Squidge upload makes the week a whole lot better 😍

Incredible work thank you

Brilliant analysis, one of your best and appreciated by learned Welsh fans.

Yes!! All of this is spot on. Scotland snatching defeat from the jaws of victory...... again. Without Fin Russell they wouldn't have any wins. Thanks so much for the analysis Squidge.

Great and fantastic video. I didn’t want to watch it because this match was a really painful loss but I’m glad I did!

Your rugby brain blows me away every time! Keep it up

Major return to form, good shit man

Was just listening to the podcast and this pops up

Such a difficult watch. The breakdown and biggar’s performance won wales the game. Could argue wales slowed the ball down a lot illegally by just flopping all over the ruck without support bodyweight but they weren’t being pinged so they continued doing it so fair enough. Also you forgot to mention the penalty count in the second half, can’t remember what it was exactly but was heavily skewed against Scotland (7-2 or something like that). Scotland just not clinical enough and didn’t deserve the win.

Honestly I LIVE for the comedic interuptions on the outros

Loved the musical interlude. More more more

Thanks for all the 6 nations content lad

excellent return to form. keep it up

Excellent analysis

The opening of this video was genuinely hilarious 😂

"It's Scotlands year!" a few days later: "Next year, it's Scotlands year!" Rinse and repeat until they do eventually win the whole thing and say they told us so.

I'm watching this for the first time 14 hours before Scotland kick off against Wales. I couldn't bear it at the time, but I wanted to burst my growing optimism as the match approaches. It worked. I can see Wales coming out fiercely with clever Gatland antidotes to all Scotland's best weapons, slowing everything down, managing the referee, kicking cleverly, staying in the game and giving an expectant crowd the heebie-jeebies. It'll come down to the final 20 minutes again, Wales will bring quality and experience off the bench, and God knows what happens next. It's possible that everything will click for Scotland they'll blow Wales away in the first half, and if they do that inexperience in the starting pack will hurt Wales, but I doubt it. I think it will be watch-through-the-fingers again. I'm ready to be hurt again.

Love it when you upload

You know what we should do? We should make a rugby analysis video where we show Scotland's mistakes in the last 20 minutes to lose the game to the Wii shopping channel theme music. Because everybody knows about the Wii shopping channel and everybody loves to shop on it every Wednesday.

I really wasn't ready for the bungle

Not the manscaped ad. The most deadly shaver ever!! 😂

Another great vid Squidge. Can you do one on your fantasy six nations team for each round? Also where is the england Italy match analysis you uploaded??

Great analysis as always squidge! As a scot this was probably the worst defeat in years. Shame on me thinking we may be finally getting over our pretender tag

Hastings HAS to come in. Kinghorn is not good enough 10.

Back to the great content and although he was pictured no mention of he who must not be named

There was an England/Italy video, right? I didn't imagine that? But great coverage of the match!

Would've been interesting to hear what your thoughts on the first half scrums the ref reset again and again, instead of giving a free kick or pen against the offending player were like

Love these videos

Ive been waiting on this

I'm a Welshman and a Welsh fan through and through, but there is nothing in the 6N rugby world I'd love more than for Scotland to win a Grand Slam. I will take a Welsh win anyday, but if this ends up being the loss that costs it for Scotland, it will be a bitter victory. Love my Jocks in blue

Quality upload!

Possibly the greatest sponsor segment of all time

bless u squidge

Same old Scotland. They're in the game, they're competing, then they end up losing by a few points. I don't know but I believe that Scotland have picked up more bonus points for losing by less than a converted try than any other team.

Squidge, you legend!

Great analysis, it did feel like Scotland were too cocky after beating England and seeing the state of Wales against Ireland. They [Scotland] thought they had the game in the bag and were just sloppy whereas Wales had tightened themselves up and looked very dangerous.

No-8 slow support to breakdown pretty much sums up every Scottish attack and why we lost that game

Dear Squidge: stop saying we’ll win the six nations. You keep jinxing us 😂😭

You missed the key point in the game. ST gets a big line break and has Harris on his shoulder. Score is 14 a piece. ST gives that pass? Harris has a great chance to score with other support runners coming outside, even if he doesn't tough to see how Wales stops a try there. Instead ST took it into contact, and chance fizzled out.

14:21 called this on Twitter at the time. Sanjay had no right to be indignant.

Why did you remove the Italy England video ?

Very surprised there was no liam williams 50/22 cameo

I thought the manscaping ad at the beginning was a running Joke 😂 Its not 🤨 Keep it smooth guys 👍

Hmmm what was that at 10:18?

Finally!!!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

It was a frustrating game to watch, esp that last twenty minutes or so. Scotlands mad-bastard-improvising way of playing is equal parts amazing and horrific - when it works, it's such an absolute joy to watch, but when it fails (as it did here, miserably) you're left wondering why the hell we do this to ourselves. Here's hoping for a good explanation/answer against Les Frenchies

Best sponsorship ever

Possibly the best promo intro ever….shave away 😂

I really like Kinghorn, there have been times over the years that he's been a better full back than Hogg. But as a 10 he's not ready for Tier 1 internationals, against Tier 2 nations and maybe against Italy is his current level. Hastings, Wier or Thompson would all have been better call-ups for 10 imo.

Harry Randall with 1 tackle is defs a mistake btw.

it did hurt

"Scotland have their own face in their hands." Did I hear that right? 😂

Squidge sells shaving kit? Hmm.

I find it incredulous, that you mention great game management by Biggar to play low percentage effective rugby in his kicking decisions, yet fail to mention that during the drop goal Wales were playing with a penalty advantage. Therefore, Wales could have comfortably gone through 3/4 more phases before being called back for the penalty, or could have made a try score play... BEFORE BEING BROUGHT BACK FOR THE PENALTY! Wales on 70 mins at 17 - 17 could have done 1 of 3 things other than the drop goal... 1. Gone 3/4 more phases, before an error and being called back for the penalty = 2 -3 mins and 3 points. 2. Thrown a cross field / up and under try score play, before being brought back, = 2 mins and 3 points 3. Thrown a cross field / up and under try score play, scored it. = 2 mins and 5-7 points. In all 3 of these scenarios Wales would have been better off than just scoring the original drop goal. I'm not saying Biggar was wrong, it seemed panicky to me, but to claim it was 'genius' shows a massive lack of understanding of the situation.

The how is Scotland from week to week are so hit and miss they can be incredible one week and terrible the next they are lacking consistency yes they are doing better then the early 2010s but they still are not consistent enough to challenge for the championship atm

Surely you're not old enough to know who Bungle is?

That's 18 tackles bro-ski

I think DvdM had an absolute stinker of a game!

Love the video but quite note: the ad braking the intro is suuuper aggressive

Are you by chance watching Baumgartner painting restoration videos because I smell that guys chat on you

Squidge rugby 🙌🙌🙌

as a scottish supporter this video was painful

If Hastings was the guy off the bench I’m confident Scotland would have created a proper chance to score. He’s similar enough to Russell to not need to completely tear apart the playbook to fit him in but he also has less of an ego on the field. He’s happy to just slip into the system and play that way. Russell almost begrudgingly plays the system and then does something either magical or stupid. Hastings won’t do the magic Russell does but also won’t get a yellow card in last quarter of the game. He’ll just manage it. That’s how Scotland won in France last year with a 10 just managing the game well and getting involved when he needed to and staying out when he didn’t. Kinghorn isn’t ready for this level as a 10. A better bench for Scotland would be steyn,Hastings and white. You pretty much cover the same amount of positions with those players

Please make a podcast

Tommy Bowe 😂

Can't. Too soon : /

I don't use the right speed on youtube or i need more fps

With Ireland and France still to go i wouldn’t say it was Scotland’s best shot at a grand slam in 32 years in a long shot, otherwise loved the analysis

Nice... already alot better than the England video, well done mate.

Imo Scotland got the short end of the stick in this game, very evenly balanced teams but the Finn yellow is not a yellow and Wales didn't get a yellow for a shoulder to head hit which I think swings the game. Scotland definitely didn't play well enough to win, too many mistakes but definitely didn't deserve to lose like that.

Literally searched for this 25 minutes ago.

You should have gone into advertising.

I don't think the scotland team itself got cocky after the win over England but the media and everyone else bigged them up and made them look stupid after the loss against Wales. It's frustrating though because I don't think the team played badly, Wales just did a really good job of being that annoying 'choke the life out of every play team' by lying on rucks, tackling and flopping off feet slowing things down and just generally getting in the way of every passage of play. There were definitely a lot of infringements that went unnoticed (and fair enough every team does that a fair amount) but it is just irritating that Scotland lose to a Welsh team again that don't deserve to go far in the tournament this year. Would just have been nice to see Scotland get a 3rd place+ finish for a change but now its looking ever harder yet again...

Collab with 2 cents?

Nice, think you might have a new sub...YUP! Subbed - see you next Sunday... ;)
