The match against Argentina this morning was rugby at its most attritional and exciting despite the fact Scotland lost and there was only one try. However Scotland’s curse raises its head once again and we look likely to fail to reach the quarter finals. It makes next Saturday’s match against England truly unmissable. Horrific missed drop goal by Dan Parks right at the death and I suspect a lack of concentration after we’d eked out that six point lead only to concede a converted try less than a minute later.

A really tense finish. In fairness to Parks some of the Argentinians were offside when he missed the Drop Goal, but he still should have maybe kicked it. Yup I think you lost concentration after building that 6 point lead: some crucial missed tackles. As a fellow Celt I hope you beat England next week. Good luck!
