In The Scotsman Tom English is struck by a sense of deja vu as Scotland toil to a 10-6 victory over Ireland at Murrayfield.
"IF Sylvester Stallone lives to play a dozen Rockys, Arnold Schwarzenegger two dozen Terminators and Matt Damon 100 Jason Bournes, then none of those films would have the same familiarity, the same "haven't I seen this before?" quality as the movie we watched at Murrayfield.
"This was Scotland: The Sequel of The Sequel of The Sequel. It was the humdrum and cliched tale of a team who cannot score, who do everything bar score, who drive themselves, their fans and their coach half-demented by their inability to score. Roll credits. The End."
