I knew in my heart that Scotland played brilliantly but I allowed my utter disappointment at England's awful performance to blind me. Thank you Squidge Rugby for reminding me why I should celebrate an awesome Scotland performance instead.
I had the same feelings man, I felt like it was more of an England loss than a Scotland win but I guess that’s just a biased opinion. All credit to Scotland now, I hope this is the start of their overall improvement. Hamish got Motm for me!
As a welsh fan I had a similarly uneasy feeling almost throughout Gatlands entire tenure. Now I sleep well at night knowing that we are actually playing like dog shit.
Is it just me who Since the game finished Was like I wander what squidge Rugby Will do for this Edit:Thx For all the likes this is the most I have ever got
Personally speaking more frustration, that Eddie hasn't made a back up plan in the 6 years he's been in charger. But Scotland were the better team on the day and thoroughly deserve the win
Great job Squidge and Scotland. Loved the montage at the end of all the fans cheering at home. We should all come together to celebrate the joys of rugby right now, especially with the current state of the world. Coming from an England fan. Stay safe everyone!
@@jameselliott9866 good point, well made - though a range of views are ok. His offbeat humour is part of the attraction, I guess, though the analysis is forensic, easily the best part. Do all coaches think like he does - I really don't know?
I do not usually comment on UA-cam videos but I am happy to make an exception for Squidge Rugby. I have learnt more from this young man than I have playing the game in the last 20 years. The videos are exceptional. I cannot understand why you are not contracted to one of the major broadcasters to provide technical analysis during games. Please keep up the good work lad. The rugby community thanks you.
So good.. Your analysis is top draw. These videos are as engaging for me as the rugby itself. They're educational, funny and you do well to encapsulate the emotions of the six nations. Really really really well done. Bravo. Keep up the good work.
Fantastic video mate. Great to hear someone talk about how scotland were great instead of England was bad. Love your break downs always watch them over twice there just so much going on in them.
Scotland's game management impressed me. And it was just such a good performance versus a very bad performance. Fully deserved victory. No one is entitled to victory you have to earn it
You are a rugby genius Squidge. Your videos make even the worst games interesting and your analysis and presentation of iconic moments are close to iconic themselves. Thanks for every fantastic video that you do. You're making many people very happy.
Just clicked on the video analysis from BBC sport to hear your sultry tones! Great to get the recognition/exposure your in depth analysis and work deserves! Needless to say as a Scot I think this is the best of your work 👍
@@bdt3367 No, I am saying it took Scotland a while build a system that works for them and in doing so, now have the ability to outplay teams like England.
@@chris-ryan Yesterday was my case in point. Everyone plays their own world cup final against England. Scotland have shot their bolt with the huge effort involved in playing England. Wales and Ireland will do the same, near enough kill themselves to try for the victory against the English. It means they suffer fatigue and lack of desire in all their other matches. All these teams need to drop their obsession with England, they will never progress to true world level otherwise.
Squidge....You’re an editing guru my friend. The ending of this ditty just made me enjoy how moments like this is what sport is all about. Bravo lad! Stay at it!!
It's crazy to me how much more intelligent I feel after watching a Squidge video. Such an amazing ability to tie so much together in just 20 minutes. Superb content!
Aside from the great editing, you write so well about rugby these videos are a joy to watch. And you make me feel better about my unruly lockdown hair, which is a bonus.
Matt Fagerson levelled up into GOD MODE in that play, just bouncing international pros around for fun! My 7yo laddie and I watched, had a wee tear at the end. As a Scotland fan, hardened to spectacular losses this was such a sweet, sweet moment. Elation, emotion, energising.
Great video, this has probably been mentioned previously but the moment of the day for me was Hogg getting the two debutants, Cherry and Redpath to lift the trophy. Great gesture and leadership.
Outstanding analysis, just a genuine joy to watch the game dissected like this. Keep on doing what you're doing Squidge! Emotional at the end there as a Scot!
Dang, but you packed a lot into that video. Can't wait to see what else you've got cooked up! Thanks for the laugh, the insights and the great home-videos at the end. That guy spraying the ceiling with his bubbly may have some explaining to do when the missus gets home....
I was so waiting for this video ... mate ! I think I enjoyed this game as much as any french victory at "le crunch" ! The Flower Of Scotland Bloomed in Twickenham !!!
As an English fan got to take my hat off to Scotland they were great! And the celebrations and comments just make it even better! Always nice to be the team everyone wants to beat 🤣 here’s to another 30+ years 🏴
@@thereader6667 we’ve got the European player of the year in Sam Simmons that’s not even been selected! Billy’s not been the same player since breaking his arms! Why are we sticking with him still, it’s not like we don’t send players back. Look at Ben Morgan before breaking his legs arguably the best 8 in the world at the time, never got another look in when Eddie arrived! Why is he unstoppable and why since Eddie has arrived as he had no competition?
I agree, Billy needs a rest. Sam Simmonds won't get picked, he doesn't seem to suit the style of the team. Same old story, Chris Ashton, Alex Goode, Marlon Yarde, Danny Cipriani, Mike Brown. They were all arguably at one point the best in contention, but never got picked. It is clear Eddie likes to play to a game plan and he doesnt like players who play for themselves, in this case its unjust as these guys set up and score tries.
@@thereader6667 I'm really hoping this sobering loss is what will shake things up. We've been dominant in the 6N recently and I think that's made us focus on the same game plan over and over... Really want to just see Ford on at 10 all the time, with Malins coming in and hopefully Randall soon.
These have got to be the most eagerly awaited videos on UA-cam. Once again you smashed it, thanks Squidge! The question I have though is: Can Scotland continue this level of performance in every game? IMHO that is the difference between good and great teams - an ability to consistently perform at the highest level. That is why the All Blacks are a great side.
as an englishman i am pinning all my hopes on finn russell to save 15 a side rugby. i was bitterly disappointed for him and racing at the european cup final. this is his reward!
Yet another great and entertaining analysis, thanks Squidge - wish I could give you more than a single thumbs up - and I love the 'cheeky prick' observation!
Really fantastic summary and analytics. Thank you. Ive waited a long long time for that win. Years the whipping boys, the joke team, fellow wooden spoon contenders with Italy. NAY more! Are we looking at a Scotland Slam? Finally got a world class back line, Cam Redpath and that huge SAFFA winger, Hoggie at his prime. Its now or never. Great to see big Richie Gray back too. Hamish is immense. His fearless passion, courage and guts of a rabid Tasmanian mighty mouse/ devil. The rest of 6N shiteing themselves de noo.
Squidge your rugby analysis is just superb. Even the BBC thinks it is BBC News - Squidge Rugby: How Stuart Hogg & Finn Russell 'rugby tennis' defeated England
I knew in my heart that Scotland played brilliantly but I allowed my utter disappointment at England's awful performance to blind me. Thank you Squidge Rugby for reminding me why I should celebrate an awesome Scotland performance instead.
England were made to look even more awful by Scotland's excellent Pressure play, congrats on the win!
I had the same feelings man, I felt like it was more of an England loss than a Scotland win but I guess that’s just a biased opinion. All credit to Scotland now, I hope this is the start of their overall improvement. Hamish got Motm for me!
Both can be true! Scotland clearly played well, England clearly underperforming to the usual standard. Resulting in a dominamt scotland performance.

Bravo. Keep up the good work.
The slow mo tackle on Itoje by the two Scottish subs at 11:08 is truly a thing of beauty.
As a South African with Scottish heritage, loved this result. Well done Scotland

There are few things I look forward to in life; getting home to see my dog, and watching the wonderful squidge rugby vids...

Perfect treat during breakfast before work :)
I think the best image was the 2 new caps for Scotland lifting the Calcutta Cup.
Brilliant Squidge! Thanks again. Not ashamed to admit that i have been checking UA-cam every couple of hours to see when you put them up
Best post credits scene in modern cinema in history
It's fantastic to see Scotland evolving into a better team each season. This win you could see coming several seasons ago.
So you're saying it took nearly 7 years to come up with a game plan to win one match against England?

This is probably my favourite analysis that you've done. Love it
What a great video again Squidge. I loved those videos of the fans at the end. Welll done Scotland, great perfomance.

Awesome video mate. I nearly cried at the end. I might be an Aussie, but with Scots grandparents Scotland will always get my support.
Well done Scotland! Loved the game. Was shouting for you all the way from South Africa
This is genuinely the loveliest and best thought out rugby review I've ever seen
I can't explain how much I've been looking forward to this video
Think it was a really nice gesture to let the two new caps lift the cup first as well, says a lot about the captain Id say
You have a beautiful way with words. Respect xxx
Thank you so much for this. I didn't watch it because my favorite part of Six Nations is the crowd. The end brought me to tears. Well done Scotland
Best analysis yet - spotted lots of moments I missed , and some brilliant comments - thanks!
The commentary towards the end.. Goosebumps!
Who gave you the right to make me cry like that? I wanna thank them.
I’ve been waiting for this since 6:45 last Saturday and I couldn’t be happier. Loving the lockdown hair as well! Woo hoo🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
