[QUOTE="BobbyM, post: 960607, member: 73737"] So we’re now criticising the Scottish defence coach for saying Scotland did something good because the world player of the year was kept relatively quiet. Deary me. I still don’t quite get what seems to be the irritation with what the Scotland assistant coach said. Was it a particularly malicious challenge that led to Sexton going off injured? Off the ball or in the air? From memory it was Sexton took the ball to the line fed an inside pass to Stockdale (for the try) and in the process he was tackled. Ref had no problem with it and there was no citing or such afterwards. I get that Irish fans are sensitive about Sexton so I don’t expect a response, but I am still pretty bemused by the wave of negativity about what seems to be fairly bland comments from Hogg. Also, in the context of the full quote, the issue with comments from Taylor where at worst one could say he could have phrased the point slightly differently, but the overall meaning was fairly innocuous.
